>Digital Camo
Holy Shit, WTF.
Seriously? Are they stupid?
Why can't they just buy from the Chinese?
At least China has a DECENT Research and Development that does not fucking USE DIGITAL CAMO for fucking planes.
it doesn't matter lmao
>>33944978
Digital warfare requires digital camo.
>>33944978
>Seriously? Are they stupid?
Are you?
>>33944978
Quiet. That looks hot.
The digital is expensive and does not work, go back to the goddamned grey!
>>33945038
It's like you want more dogs on the runway comrade.
>>33945038
painting squares is expensive?
>>33944978
Is that some Minecraft lol

fixed
>>33945215
The splinter pattern makes it look properly Russian.

>this
053 and 054 master race.
>>33945185
This is the good one. Edge-breaking all around, doesn't need a gradient either could just be two colors.
>>33945215
I do like the outline of the red star for an insignia. Very minimalist but not as dull as just greying out like you would see on the F-22 or F-35.
I'm still going to pick 055 as my favorite though.
>>33944978
Is this a new prototype or have they repainted the old one?
>>33944978
why not jist paint it to look like a cloud
>>33945320
Unless they changed the ID number then it's a new one.
Up until now they have all been 05X, but this most recent one is 509.
They need to do a PAK FA up in Russian Knights colors.

>Holy Shit, WTF.
>Seriously? Are they stupid?
>Implying the PAK-FA has ever been anything but a flashy "me too!" Gen 5 fake-out
>At least China has a DECENT Research and Development that does not fucking USE DIGITAL CAMO for fucking planes.
Pfffttt.
russians have the best fighter camo, eat a dick lil nigga
>>33944978
What the fuck purpose does digital camo serve in any role? I've heard the "mediocre in every situation so we save money by not R&Ding EVER again and using it everywhere" shit a billion times but really, what the fuck?
Digital is what old people think is cool to us young idiots, that's why the army adopted the worst camo in human history
>>33944978
Digital is bad.
Many such cases
Should go with steam instead
>>33944978
>Are they stupid?
>russia
That is a given, but camo on planes matter little these days. It's mostly to look good for propaganda photos.
>>33944978
Does plane camo still matter? Today it's all BVR, you could paint your jet in neon colors if you want.
>>33946708
>Should go with steam instead
I see what you did there
>>33929174
Excuse me, pardon me, best Russian jet coming through.
>>33946708
GODDANG STEAM!

Well, if you have to make up for a shit combat record with flash.
>>33944978
>camo on a plane
>not using radar absorbing skin and forgetting about shitty paint
>>33946708
Fuck steam, go with guncotton
>>33947736
No, trust us we're Russian guys :^)

Somewhat ironic.

Daily reminder: Russhits are retarded
>implying that thing will ever see any opposition so it's not like it even matters
If they can land contracts with India or other nations then the PAK FA will do very well.
It won't become the most common fighter by any means but it could be a valuable addition to an air force that's expecting to encounter things like the F-15. Though a lot of that will also come down to pilot training.

thread derails into "A fucking lemon" in three, two...
>>33949157
Aside from the one engine flameout there hasn't been too many serious problems.
If that kind of issue early into development makes it a lemon then some other planes would qualify as goddam disasters. It looks promising but more pricey compared to past Soviet/Russian offerings, that's the cost of such a leap in technology.
>>33948711
Wonder if the Russians would paint their planes like US ones if they had Aggressor squads.
>>33944993
Underrated
>>33949201
The main adversary to the Russians these days is their own crumbling economy, what color are they supposed to use?
PLA WILL REPLACE ITS T81-RIFLE WITH NEW MODULAR RIFLE (unknow type)
>Disliking sexy T-50 camo
Are you gay?
>>33949234
Ouch
>>33949234
Red.
I think the digital looks good. Way better than most digital camos. I also doubt its an operational paint scheme.
I've slowly come to really like how the Pak-Fa looks. AT first I hated it but now I think it looks really sex.
>>33948546
Unf. Strike Eagle has CURVES.
Flanker wishes she could be that thicc.
>>33944993
ya
the planes hide in the cloud
fuckin idiots
>>33951011
The first time I saw it, I fell in love.
In the past I had drawn out what I thought would be one of the most beautiful fighter designs, I was amazed when I saw something similar appear in the real world. Even if the project itself turns out to be a bust I'm glad it was made just for the videos and images.
>>33945259
Is that shooped? It looks shooped.

>>33953112
Fighters are designated with names starting with "F", right?
I like Pancake Flanker, so how about "Flapjack Flanker" or just "Flapjack"?
>>33952285
What about seems shopped?
>>33953270
Too bad the name Flounder is already taken.
>>33944978
One, the Russians have been using "pixellated" camo long before people were using computer algorithms to generate camo patterns.
Two, they generally work as long as the colorway is appropriate
>>33949116
Why by the PAK FA when you could potentially buy a J-31, an actually competently designed stealth fighter?
