F 22 Raptor vs Russian PAK FA T-50 Firefox

A video showing the top 2 contenders for the Global Air Supremacy Crown, America's F-22A Raptor and Russia's 5th Generation prototype, the Sukhoi PAK FA T-50 Firefox. When the Firefox goes operational or begins weapons test and footage is allowed to the US, then I will update the video. Leave comments and/or questions. Hope you enjoy!

"Firefox" - ????

[GOAF2014]

@hussur I know that's not the real name (doesnt have one) and it doesnt work with the way NATO names fighters but I thought it sounded cool and mysterious like the PAK FA

@humanequilibrium simulated tests against the f35, well show's how much you know, the f35 isn't even combat ready and hasn't even left the us, so how could it be getting dominated by the su35, that wasn't even a simulation, it was a thinktank report created by RAND for one reason, the aussies want the f22, longer range missiles, the aim120d has a range of over 180km excedding the range of the r27 and the raptor will see the t50 first, it has more senors and overall it's stealth shape is sueprior

@F22raptor46 Germany applied radio absorbing materials in days of WWII to periscopes of submarines. Go to school, the ignoramus. Your illiteracy is tiresome

@packr72 t-50 has better vectoring and performance in most scenarios though compared to raptor

[dobrovolets777]

@willbertdsgc aerodinamics of PAK FA is much better than Su-35C (SU-37)...as soon as PAK FA will pass all tests it can be used over 5G...then we look through how much maneuvrable it can be.

@AeroSharkTech second reply. all said.Americans deserve the credit to be first to develop stealth planes using Ufimtsev's theories , but since he gave the science to the whole scientific community sooner or later everyone will have it too. Even Iranians and chinesse have now stealth planes. There are different sciences for stealth however that scientist are working. Russians are now working on the next big thing. stealth plasma planes but thats decades away in the future.

@AeroSharkTech Dude watch the video again.. the CIA guy ,he himself told the Ufimtsev works STILL are used as the base for their next generation stealth planes. you don't reinvent the wheel once discovered no ? Thats why stealth technonology will be sooner or later seen everywhere ,just like nuclear reactors ,since the core science is not secret. He gave lectures everywhere . all stealth planes F22/F35 and others are based on his revolutionary discoveries in the early 60's .

[AeroSharkTech]

@Vann7 Yes, I saw that pro Soviet propaganda. And the majority of that video is total crap . The U-2 and SR-71 were reduced cross section aircraft. They were not "stealth" but they were difficult for then modern radar to detect. The U-2 in particular did not rely on speed as it was sub sonic. The F-117 relied heavily on obtuse angles more so than Ufimtsev's shakey theories, which the majority have been debunked over the last 20 years. I can tell you Ufimtsev had 0% to contribute to the F-22.

[Vann7]

@AeroSharkTech U2 -SR71 were not stealth planes their ability was to flight very fast and very high out of range of Soviets anti-air systems. Peter Ufimtsev theories DO worked. but soviets didnt though in the 60's a plane could be made with those theories. so they went safer designs. all 5th generation jets today including F22 and F35 were made thanks t his discoveries . watch on youtube the story of stealh. ( aJ98lBR9tgY ) . he also is behind of Anti-stealth radars..btw..

[gtamodman122]

pointing out a winner would be rather pointless for me.I'm thinking about waiting until the T-50 enters service...

[AeroSharkTech]

@Vann7 Look, Peter Ufimtsev had theories. Obviously they did not work because even Russia had to go another way and rely on planform alignment (first seen on the YF-22 and YF-23) as well as a series of other American innovations just to produce their first "semi stealth" aircraft 20 years after the US began using stealth planes in combat (F-117). Also, the SR-71 and U-2 were in service while Ufimtsev was still doing research. Davenchi theorized about airplanes, but he's not the inventor is he?
