Which 5th gen pair would you pick /k/? Top or bottom?

fuck ya muddah

>>63990773 (OP)
there are only two actual 5th gens in this image, chinkshill, that's the bottom ones

>>63990773 (OP)
Stfu with your shitty bait

>>63990773 (OP)
you already know

Most implessive
But you are not a 5th gen yet

>>63990773 (OP)
If the Chink ones can magically get proper engines, then I'd choose them. They're far cheaper so you can produce much larger numbers than the American ones.

>>63991715
I mean they're probably stealthier than anything else on the market, so might as well call them "stealth".

>>63991724
>stealthier than anything else on the market
Maybe excluding american options. I don't actually know about the sorks weird thingy they have, but until it has a iwb it doesnt count. That leaves the su57, with similar rcs as a super hornet. This isn't exactly a high bar for dedicated stealth planes to clear, even if its temushit.

>>63991724
I'll give them some credit, they're at least trying a little harder than Suckhoi, dASSault, and Saad to actually cook up a competitor to the F35 and the F22. They might have reduced their RCS by 5, maybe even 6% over the previous flanker clones

>>63990851
Dibs on F-22

>>63991735
Yeah the bar isn't high, and neither is China particularly EXPERIENCED in designing/manufacturing aircraft. It's what you'd expect from a country in the early stages of their MIC.

pathetic, sad, and soulless.
also hi chinkshill, back for another melty?

>>63991853
Neat hat

>>63991701
Sure has Chang, sure has... ACK-

kek

>>63990851
F-22 has gone a bit batty after decades of wanting to fight, and then all she gets is a balloon...

>>63990851
J-35 comes behind them obviously, but she's a more respectable rival than Felon.

>>63991795
they are firmly no.2 right now tho, so what does that say for the rest of the world (looking at you euros)

>>63993267
wheres the f35 one with flavortext?

Top

>>63991275
>>63991394
They are arguably 4.5

>>63998053
This

>Copies made decades later are still slightly inferior
Changs stay losing. I still respect how far they have come and underestimating your enemy is a grevious mistake.

>>63998151
But let's stop talking about the F-22: https://www.twz.com/air/f-22-raptor-finally-getting-a-helmet-mounted-display

>>63998053
i actually agree, i just call them 4th gen because it pisses chinks off.
still not low observable enough to square off with proper stealth aircraft thoughever

>>63998159
we were talking about the chink planes, as that sentence only makes sense when applied to them, not the F-22
hi helmettard

>>63998159
So the better plane is now even better.

>>63998159
jesus christ. only now? how? why?

>>63998542
It wasn't a priority. The plane beats anything in the air without it. That and typical government contract fuckery.

>>63998542
it didn't really need it as everything else was so fucking far beneath it.

>>63990773 (OP)
So most /k/ are bottoms.

Just as | thought.

My scenario still stands.

>>63998557
i remember that guy, i wonder what he's up to nowadays?

>>63998542
Only now the US has been humble enough to buy the french helmet after the chinks J-20 have long surpassed the F-22 in numbers and there's a clear threat of a war in the Pacific happening. It's well known that during mock dogfights between F-22's vs Hornets, the superbugs always managed to get the first shot due to having HMDs.

>>63998789
bc dogfights are that common

>>63998789
Oh hey helmettard

>>63990773 (OP)
The one with the nice abs

Is this why he’s called helmettard? lol
I’ve always assumed he was retarded and looked like picrel
