Thanks for that source Deino, I will check it out, you all make good points, a fifth gen fighter is a totally new animal, you have to pay for it, the initial "complaint about the Raptor, it costs to much". F-35 deemed to be good enough, because of new weapon systems and integration, and stealthy enough, is still going to be very expensive, and I bet 2 to 1, will make the Raptor look like a bargain. Deino is right guys, we need to keep the focus on the J-20, we will all have a little different perspective, and I was initially mystified by how much they were flying J-20, now that the second prototype has come along, there will be twice as much tweaking going on. I would guess the initial flight testing has gone very well, and now they are in the next phase as they expand the flight envelope, they are also going to be flying a "new airplane" and that requires some extra vigilance, but like Deino, I am anxious to see 2002 fly!
I am having a little trouble pinning the T-50 prob, is it the rear center fuse and the verts that have cracks Deino? I really do want to keep up on all of them, but info on all these birds is illusive to say the least. If its off topic feel free to pm me. Thanks Bax
