Nothing so far. Problem with internal bays is not in them per se, but in availability of matching weapons . Missiles like R-73, some versions of R-27 and R-77 and even Kh-31 etc are all rail-launched , because they were developed back in USSR . PAK FA is certified with them , but only from wing pylons and in a video below you could see why . Other versions of R-27 and R-77 could be drop-launched , but they would not fit in PAK-FA internal bay .
