My first thought at seeing that frontal picture was: wow, looks a lot like the YF-23.
However, after having a look at the other pictures it turns out to be quite different.
It is still a nice plane, though.......

What a great looking aircraft! I still think the YF-23 looked better, but this is good enough :)

According to experts the T-50 still needs a lot of changes to make it as stealthy as its American contenders. The engines, the canopy, no radar absorbing coating, etc. They used a lot of Flanker components that should be replaced over time. Therefore it might still take a while before this beauty will be ready for production...

When you're so close, head-on with the PAK-FA, Stealth isn't important anymore...
