PAK-FA / T-50: Russian 5th Generation Fighter
- Thread starter vrus
- Start date

S-37(Su-47) is a flying laboratory and will never be in series.
Also there are different news and different views on the problem of 5 generation fighters and according to different resources there two possibilities
1 - two types of fighters (heavy Su and light MiG)
2 - only one type but in different modifications.
what about stealth technologies - RAF stealth technology is not a special form of the aircraft but a special painting which reduces it's radar visibility by absorbing radiosignals.
also some pictures of PAK FA project really looks like F-22 =))))
the technology of engines for F-35 was taken from Yak-141 (it was offiicially bought) - at least this info was very helpful for Lockheed-Martin

Just because it looks like the other "stealth" UAVs doesn't mean it will be though. There is a lot more to stealth than the shape, though it is a good start.

Official: Russian defense hit by lending crisis
A senior Russian Cabinet official said Tuesday the country's defense industries have been crippled by the financial crisis and called on state banks to provide more funding.
The comments by Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Ivanov come as the Kremlin pushes a 25 percent increase in defense spending next year, earmarking billions of dollars on new weaponry for the country's aging armed forces.
Many Russian defense plants have suffered a dire cash shortage, making it difficult for them to fulfill government orders for new weapons, Ivanov said in televised remarks.
"The current global financial problems have badly affected some defense industry plants," Ivanov, who is in charge of military industries, told a government meeting. "The situation could become quite painful for the industry."
Ivanov blamed bankers for trying to profit from the industries' desperate situation by raising interest rates. He said the government should order state-controlled banks to give loans to defense plants.
The global financial crisis has made many Russian banks reluctant to lend money to industries, and the government has injected billions of dollars into the banking system to try to unfreeze the credit situation.
Even before the crisis, the Russian defense industries have suffered from years of brain drain and the loss of key technologies resulting from post-Soviet economic meltdown.
Industry experts warned that aging industrial equipment, the shortage of qualified personnel, and the lack of components could jeopardize the Kremlin's ambitious military modernization tasks.
Experts say the degradation of Russian weapons industries may also undermine the government's hopes to expand arms sales to global markets.

Last link as you leads to an official government site - but officials often don't about what other officials has told.

That huge size RCS has been reduced to an F 16 size RCS with the SU 35BM. It shows that there are more than 1 way to get around a problem.
More details on the MiG Skat ;

Do anyone recognize the partner companies in the Skat from those picstures?
And what bomb is that grey 1 in the 3rd pic? A new type? I've seen pictures of MiG 35 also carrying it.

Never listen what the officials say. Instead, try to gather the facts and analyze them. Good luck!
Admin - If you have a point of view say it - don't waste everyones time by making open statements without substance - it does nothing except fill space.

I could be mistaken, but IIRC Sukhoi and MiG have partnered together to work on the PAK-FA, with something like 2/3rd Sukhoi and 1/3rd MiG for the design work.
Aside from that, I do not recall hearing much about new developments by MiG. Most of what they have been up to as I recall has been doing upgrades of existing MiG-29's to higher/more advanced variants.
