  1. Only from the rear. At all other aspects it's considerably more stealthy than your average aircraft.

  2. The point about everyone knowing where you are when you transmit isn't always true. Low observable data links used by aircraft such as F-22 and F-35 (eg MADL) for short range communication within a formation have high atmospheric attenuation, so they only travel relatively short distances and are very hard to detect by an enemy. No idea if Russia has anything similar, but they may well do.

  4. No, militaries don't usually shoot their own drones down. They're usually programmed to fly to a designated position near their home airfield if control is lost

  5. Just like their 5th gen programme? The US have been churning them out for decades, and Russia can barely maintain a small inferior SU-57 line

  6. Now they're asking North Korea, one of the world's most impoverished nations, for support. So strong.

  7. The UK has operated drones for years.

  8. Doesn't make it invisible, just harder to see with a radar

  9. Russias approach to airworthiness is somewhat lacking. It means shorter development time, but much greater risk of malfunction

  10. How many are there?
