I wonder what kind of color will the PAK FA RAM will be. Black or some kind of different color? I already seen a color scheme for the PAK FA in Blue and White and Cyan but I wonder if that's the final color for the production aircraft.

Not really, no matter what you're going to be slow and vulnerable. If you've forced a fighter into post stall in a fight larger than 1 on 1, you've won. He won't be able to avoid your missiles. The best case for the post stall plane is a draw (gets to fire before destroyed by enemy missile).

if this thing has lower wing loading than the f-22 it may have a chance (assuming comparable avionics..big assumption)
-
with ECM&ECCM+a large number of priorities in the airspace, that slow speed high AOA flight might just be important. the idea isn't to bleed energy in a dogfight, its too be able to still fight with your airplane if you find yourself in a position w/inferior energy. if you are in a merge with a contact and another shows up, you can be forced into a bad slow spot where post-stall acm can save your ass.

First HMS were on the F-4 and Apache. F-4's never went into use, Apache's did.

not open in my pc y
Post stall maneuvers would be very surprising, it would mean the pilot performing the maneuvers is basically letting himself be shot down. The moves done by the F-22 and Flanker at airshows are for airshows. In air combat, going slow like that is a death sentence vs missiles.

Sometimes you think they've built amazing aircraft already...and then they bring out something new again. And it's like...WOW.
