I don't see what's so fraudulent about it. Most airplanes go through effectively a total redesign during EMD following the flight of the initial prototypes.

X-32 was not looking shit maybe when it was in the early demonstrator stage with that completely sealing beak.
Since then it was only going downhill.

>>33410188
It was a major change in the aircraft's design. The F-16 still looks like the YF-16, the F-35 looks like the X-35.

>>33406931
With that bigass intake how was it supposed to achieve VLO?

>>33407095
You mean like how the F-35 had to have the ass end redesigned, then the front redesigned, and now the wings redesigned?

Mmm yeah sure is a lot of room for a curved duct here

maybe if you route the air intake through the cockpit, double it up as pilot AC

Debatable. The YF-23 would have made a better BVR platform, which is what our current strategy is shaping into. Most of the reason the YF-22 was chosen was because of the high AOA provided by its thrust vectoring IIRC.

>>33415083
With a radar blocker. S-ducts are not the only way to achieve VLO. Don't tell PAK FA haters though, they usually get mad easily.
