This would make such a great wallpaper if it's in higher resolution.
The Flankers along with the F-15 along with some other aircraft from the 60s-80s remain my favorite designs. I love the air intakes on the bottom and the way the engines are separated. Reminds me of something from Star Wars or the like. I think some of these newer designs lack a certain mechanical nature that I appreciate from the older aircraft.
So has China's airforce now rivaled the US in terms of capability? Some 700 heavy multi-role / air superiority aircraft is no joke, especially with many of them having AESA radars and other modernizations.
