J-20 5th Gen Fighter Thread V

It probably has more to do with the camera lens, or lens filter, than the actual jet. Some sort of circular polarizer filter will cause the difference in images you have pointed out

That's an excellent point, and something I had not thought of before.

Besides being simply fascinated by this bird in general I find it most amazing how much different the colour looks depending the lightning-situation. If You look at the plain grey bird, it sometimes looks like a dark grey, nearly charcoal like and sometimes it's a light-grey with a typical metallic shining ...

I think this phenomenon is a byproduct of the multiple levels of RAM/paint applied to the bird.

Borrowing a line from the Dirty Dozen; very pretty, but can she fight?

No, she can't. J-20 is a multi-billion dollar hangar-queen showpiece program meant for display purposes only.

Here comes the Debbie Downer trying to sound and look coy.

All these vortices make me think that she's going to be very maneuverable. Especially with the WS-15.

Just for the record, you know Iron Man is being sarcastic I hope lol...

Well, not exactly. Every once in a while, someone has to tow her out of the hangar and drag her to the sky. You are not giving enough credit to the pilot in the tow plane!

Also, what about all the CG geeks who paint vortices around the planes? You need to give them credit too.

And... For all you parents with little kids, you should stop feeling proud of your kids. Since your kids are still young and they haven't shown any ability to do real jobs, you can never be sure that your kids can be complete failure when grown up. Thus, it is completely premature to be happy for and be proud of your kids.
