  1. People above told nonsense, it have nothing common with so-called stealth. Flying wing/triangle shape allow to carry more weight, as result to fly more/longer range. Disadvantage of such shape — instability, complicated control, low speed (as you see, this plane have no vertical wings, it means it is slow). That’s why such shape was unpopular in previous decades (first flying wings and triangles arrived in USSR back in 1920s), now it got second breath regards to automatization. It is nice shape for drones. So, this one is companion drone for real fighters, carrier of additional weapons. While itself this is not fighter and of course not some 6th gen (from point of fly ability it is far even from 4th gen). While for stealth such shape give nothing at all. It is nice that it is flat, but only if radar emit it in exactly same surface, otherwise it have no point. Stealth in general have no point because works only in fantastical and unreal conditions, not in real life.

  2. So what? Russia even publicly proposed own hypersonic missiles to West, they could buy with easy. It was almost 10 years ago, West still have no this technology. Russian new jets also publicly flying, workers made photos from factories. Secrets in 21 century — something crazy :D

  3. It is clear what — huge offensive in UA to spoil life of Trump and finally to provoke Moscow on some really tough response. Last week they already became incredible active, launch a lot of european missiles right against cities. Trying to provoke. So, very likely, this year is last for existence of EU.

  4. USA already for decades can’t even design civilian Boeings :)

  5. It is not. Companion for real fighters, additional cargo bay. Also can server as non strategical bomber/carrier. With such shape it can’t be fighter, because slow (it have no v-wings, so subsonic) and with awful maneuverability. But it not need it, it goal to fly more and carry more. It is same class as S-70, X-47, Neo, etc — companions/carriers.

  6. It never been peaceful. Second most bloodiest empire after England.

  7. Russia have own similar — S-70.

  8. Why? Russia and China are military allies, as their leaders said: “we are more than just allies". Both countries have no secrets and open to each other own technologies.

  9. Flying wing/triangles can’t fly fast. It is subsonic. But their advantage — they can carry more weight.

  10. This is not even fighter, but ordinary companion/carrier similar to S-70, X-47, Neo and a lot of more. There are also no accepted list of requirements for future 6th gen jets, so impossibly to call anything as 6th gen when requirements even not accepted yet. As example exist discussion, that 6th gen must to have ability to fly in nearest space. Discussion that it must have hypersonic speed. Accepted decision that it must to have small hypersonic a2a missiles (nobody in world invented them and will not invent for at least next 10 years). And so on. More likely first 6th gens will arrive only after 2050s.
