Every time there is a new generation US aircraft entering service there is a Chinese or Russian lookalike equivalent.

I thought this one looked more like the last generation - cross between an F-15 and a SU -27. What makes it stealthy? The shape looks the same as current gen fighters...

There have been occasions when Western aircraft designers have had to play catch up too. The Mig -15 was a nasty shock during the Korean war.

The shape of that new aircraft doesn't look particularly stealthy to my inexpert eyes. Who knows how the surfaces are finished though.

Zvezda make a very good kit of the SU-50, see link below of one I made some time ago. the F-22 had big problems I believe, and last time I heard was only authorized to fly during cases of national emergencies. Hopefully it's all sorted now. Cheers Derek

The Mig -15 was a nasty shock during the Korean war.

Certainly was, even more so when they found out that the majority of the pilots were soviet and not North Korean. The Mig leveled the dominence of the skys up for a good percentage of the Police Action/War/Conflict.

As for this plane ... doesn't look that impressive to me, maybe i'd feel different if i was there in the crowd and "felt it" rather than just watched it .... still i'm not a plane buff so take what i say and dismiss it as blurb
