Ye... the japanese thinks that most people are not over 18 to view those parts. Mmm... maybe there is a female version of the plane?

The inside the intakes may indicate the Japanese are trying something to reduce the engine reflection and they don't want anyone doing mock up radar testing. The nose bit is odd all I can thing is the Japanese are not wanting others to see the saw toothing.

considering that this is a demonstrator, a proof of concept platform those could still be built as later developments. This little bird is very small to small for actual missions but as a demonstrator all she has to do is fly.So does this mean this design (23DMU?) is final and 24DMU & 25DMU are out?

A bit more, basically she is going to be used as target practice in combat situations where they will place her through the paces to see if she can actually live up to her expectation as a fifth generation stealth plane.
Don't know if any vids will surface but it will be most interesting if it did.
I wonder how Captain "Rock" Iwasaki former JASDF Ace Pilot who was able to ace a simulated shoot down against a F-15 while piloting a F-104J Starfighter in a combat simulation would pilot this baby.
To admit ... I don't know ! I do not even remember this model ?!! Sorry.
Do You have a link to that "weaponmagazine-site" ?
But does anyone else has a better image of that concept ??
