F/A-28 Ultra Hornet FUCKING WHEN ?

>>28858323
Does SAGE work? It needs to. Piss poor.
>>28858323
Basically what the F-35C already is. That concept art is sexy as fuck though.
>>28858323
No divertless intakes in addition to those chines just screams RF emissions trap/reflector to me. Hope they clean that up.
>>28858323
>implying you'd ever be able to fly it if it did become a thing
>>28858323
F/A-XX already in the works, give it like 10 years. In the meantime weep at what could have been.
>>28858323
>>28858323
God, twin engines a best.
>>28860277
gotta intercept all those russian bombers with our mach 2 cool planes. mach 3.5 SAMs are gay
>>28860379
ok, you mean mach 2.5 cool planes. and good luck getting a sam 500 to 1000nm off a carrier group
>>28860389
we should buy s500 tbqh
>>28858323
You'll have to settle for this.
>>28858323
>take f18
>draw in "stealth angles" from f22
that concept art is shit
>>28860394
Uh, generally not a good idea to buy nor sell weapons from/to your enemy.
We do jets well, they do sams well.
>>28860497
>take flanker
>cover in stealth angles

>>28860670
I would take this over the shitfuckery that is the PAK FA.
>>28860389
>Station picket ship 500 nm from main group
>Launch SAMs another 100-200 nm from there
>>28860394
meme missile.
>>28860670
It would be interesting to see a hybrid of American and Russian planes.
>>28860670
That's pretty much what the PAK-FA already is...
Someone post the pic of that Soviet flying carrier with sweeping wings and missile tubes.
I don't know what that's from, but I like it.
>>28862310
meme's, pakfa is also the stealthiest thing their is especially from the front I don'r know why muricucks waste time trying to make f35 and f22 slightly stealthy from the side when their frontal rcs is trash
>>28862328
This one?
>>28862348
This is a well-informed post. This is clearly a man whose opinion we should all respect.
>>28858323
I no longer sexually identify as an attack helicopter.
>>28862368
That's the one.
What's that from?
>>28858323
>Ultra super doper turbo hornet type R 'Z' tune
>>28858352
No, its not a bad concept, Boeing helped build the F-22
>>28863661
Looks like some shit from Mobile Suit Gundam.
>>28858323
>>28866523
That's the ugliest piece of concept art I've ever seen. My niece at 5 years old can do better with fucking crayon, and she doesn't even like planes.
>>28866578
kek. You sound like 15 years old senpai.
>>28866523
Impressive.
The Russians should deploy this in Ukraine and there would be nothing America could do about it.
>>28860413
looks like what they did to the A-4 before it left US service.
Podded up.

bump
probably when that stealth F-15 gets built
lel
>>28866955
And this is relevant how?
>>28860277
>swing wing
that aint gonna happen
old tech
maintenance heavy
>>28866964
Swing wing isn't old tech by any means, it still confers significant advantages.
But it is maintenence heavy, yes.
>>28866961
still testing
that thing remind me of the craft of Stealth
>>28866975
I understand that the concept of not having your engines mounted basically outside your aircraft and an RCS below 100m^2 is an alien concept to Russians, but it looks nothing like this
>>28866989
not really
they still have some hull mounted engine
>>28866960
Dis?
>>28858323
Looks like the bastard love child from an FA/18 and Mig-29. Sort of want.
>>28858323
>>28867119
Holyshit this looks HOT
instead they're fucking wasting shit tons of money on a potato
>>28867570
A potato that costs less and has a smaller radar and IR cross section.
Why don't the Russians make a stealth frogfoot?
>>28867573
>costs less
WTF are you saying ?
>a smaller radar
That's a good thing ?
>and IR cross section
F-35 having less RCS than F-22 is just a meme to save US from other countries that financed F-35 Rage
>>28867601
>Reading comprehension
lel
>>28867601
>WTF are you saying ?
That the F-35 in LRIP-8 was already cheaper than Boeing's 2009 100m dollar estimate for the Silent Eagle, which would have been even cheaper than the concept in that pic as it required far less modification.
>That's a good thing ?
Reading comprehension, shitbird. I said
>has a smaller radar and IR cross section.
which means the radar cross section and IR signatures are both smaller, not that the radar T/R hardware is smaller.
>F-35 having less RCS than F-22 is just a meme to save US from other countries that financed F-35 Rage
That's funny, considering it would be monumentally stupid and easy to see through, considering the fact that 8 different countries already have pilots in the US training on F-35s. Operational realities like that are impossible to hide at that point. Are you really this ignorant on this subject matter?
>>28867601
>>28867686
Oh, and >>28867119 wouldn't have an RCS anywhere in the same league as the F-22. The nose and cockpit alone put the frontal return two orders of magnitude larger.
>>28867601
>>28867686
>>28867693
Even the nose on Boeing's Silent Eagle proposal had a re-profiled nose to reduce RCS and provide more avionics bay space for larger/more sophisticated sensor processing. Pic related.
>>28859749
How the fuck can you gauge the internals from this view you fucking fucktard moron retard.
>>28867981
Maybe you should take 5 minutes to understand what the fuck a divertless intake is before you show your ass on the interwebs, you ignorant fuck. Pic related, just to get your lazy ass started.
