Looks as stealthy as a concrete block.......sticks out like a turd in a punch bowl.

Appears less stealthy than a F-22. Too many straight flat surfaces. Probably some stealth based on material construction. Looks like a good target for an AIM -9....

And even the F-22 has been found to glow like a lightbulb in a cave in certain frequency bands. That thing must glow like a bonfire.

Just because the peopl say it's "low-observable", don't make it so. But remember, these are the people who have the 5 year pogroms and keep making the same mistakes. If they say it often enough, it must be true....

It is good that they are building it for export, maybe they can loose a few more of the "best and brightest" of the muslim world trying to fly that thing....

Has it been in an airshow yet?


If yes, how many people did it kill?

We never should have stopped using F4 Phantoms...

We never should have stopped using F-4 Phantoms. Yes, upgrade it as the years went by, but it would still kick the behind of much of what is out there in bad guy air forces.


I shot this photo in 1980. It is a Louisiana Air National Guard "Coonass Militia" F4C flying with the Confederate Air Force B-29 Superfortress "Fifi". I was in the rear seat of an F-4C.


I shot this photo in 1982. It is a Louisiana Air National Guard "Coonass Militia" F4C flying with the Confederate Air Force B-17 Flying Fortress "Texas Raiders". Trailing is a beautiful FM-2 Wildcat built by General Motors. We were on final for a pass down the runway at NAS New Orleans. I was in the rear seat of an F-4C. After I made this shot, the F-4 that I was in moved up on the right wing and the FM-2 completed the diamond in the rear.

Gotta love the F-4 but they are PIGS.

I used to be an F-body owner so I can appreciate a flying boat.

Nice fly-by but my last cruise in the Navy we had a pair of F-14s come by the ship on the deck and then pointed them straight up 'till they were barely visible.

I'm guessing their speed was just under supersonic.

As for the T-50 isn't that a stapler from Arrow? Just as invisible to RADAR.
