Really, 0.01m^2? I hope it is better than that, because the suspected frontal RCS of the F-22 is about two orders of magnitude better at 0.0001m^2.

I'm thinking missing a decimal. Likely .001 which is roughly the same range as f35 but still an order of magnitude larger than f22. I'm thinking f22 is slightly larger than .0001maybe in the range of .0002-.0005.

Lighting, j20 etc is more like golf balls, raptor is more like marble.. Everything else basketball or yoga balls.

Next gen stealth in the works today is rumored to be pea size.

Odd that they would all of a sudden abandon the practice of "serializing" their aircraft?? it really is, maybe they are gonna play a "shell game" like our friends in Moscow???

look at all the ships that team has "renamed" over the years, first it was the "blank" and now its the blank, but in the middle it was the "blank, blank"

I hope not, that is demoralizing, because the people who care about this stuff, are smart enough to figure out when somebody is running a con??

I'm sorry I don't want to be "rude", and I really don't know why I was expecting better, but I was, in fact, I'm just "POed" to the max about our whole deteriorating relationship with China, we could all do much better, but it has to start with respect and honesty.

sorry mods, rant over, just been in a funk since this all seems to be going south, and my old Firebird is in about 400 pieces, and all we have to choose from is "wife of bill" and "my dog is better than your dog???" feel free to edit as needed

Do you mean the DSI itself or the shape of the DSI? DSI benefits are well-known including improved stealth, less complex/less moving parts, and reduced weight.
