Actually we have a lot more footage of PAK-FA than we will ever have of the J-20, they even flew it at MAKS, during the Airshow, and we do have a PAK-FA thread?? what do ya think about that?
Yeah I guess I was just irritated at it not being present at the May 9 parade.
So the J-20 will never become an operational aircraft? Or how do I should interpret the "will ever have of the J-20" part?

AF Brat simply meant that China is more strict on showing their birds during development. That is it. Has nothing to do with how successful the development actually is.
2017 I think.
It's pretty clear when you take the whole sentence.
"we have a lot more footage of PAK-FA than we will ever have of the J-20"
He is simply saying that he believes that there is a lot of video/photographic footage of the PAKFA than he thinks China will ever release of the J-20.
Just his opinion is all...but not at at all that we will never have the J-20 operational or anything like that.

Exactly what I meant, the PAK-FA is an aircraft that the Russians are co-developing with the Indians, it may be sold to other interested parties, the J-20 is very unlikely to be exported, and president Xi has almost shut down new pictures and videos from the wall climbers, and has limited any official pictures or videos.
If you go back and read my posts you will see that I have predicted that the J-20 is or soon will be in LRIP, it is much further along than PAK-FA. In fact the Russians really have a "state run" advertising agency, and many of the Russians "technical journals" read more like add copy. In any respect I think the J-20 has made good progress in spite of a major upgrade/redesign of certain elements after 2001 and 2002, the Russians??? not so much?????
Can use them as deterrent.If that does happen, what are these expensive weapon programs are for?Fight aliens?
If neocons....
The F-35 program did not executed ...
American engines for Chinese jets would have been a boast to US economy not Russian. USA would have Chinese as partners in F-35.

Melane, your comments about the F-35 are no accurate and off topic here. We have an F-35 thread.
Your use of purely political terms in your answers is not warranted or wanted on SD.
Please read the rules and leave politics out of it.
Thanks.
