Re: New Generation Fighter
More prototypes will be built to test avionics etc., since the current design is unlikely to be the final version, I suppose a dozen prototypes at various stages of accomplishment wouldn't be much of extravagance for the overall flight testing process. Yet radar resting should be in a fairly late stage, e.g. we're not even sure if J10B has conducted testings on AESA yet.

I think that picture is a PS actually -- a compilation from the F-35 and a few other J-XX overhead drawings. It shows the V tails slanting inwards as well, while the real thing slants outwards.

i cant imagine how the sukhoi plane can be very stealthy against ground radar. it has such a huge reflective surface

Re: New Generation Fighter
true true never thought about that one haha though i still have issues with the nozzles of the T-50 i still feel that they can do a much better job with it
The scaling looks off to me. T-50 is way too big there. I think this one is closer to reality:
or this one:
In any case, it doesn't seem like it hurts B-2 having "huge reflective surface".
