You would think something like this would cause the comment section to go on a riot....

better?
Just saying, i don't care who makes the plane, as long is it looks good. This, this looks good.
It "looks" like a complete SHAM! The "intakes" are completely blocked the minute that thing departs straight and PERFECTLY level flight. The cockpit area is not only WAY too large for the strructrual load, it's WAY too large for a standard life support system to cope with. The downward tilt of the wingtips would actually generate MORE wingtip vortices instead of less. The nose is WAY too small for ANY sort of radar at all, much less a state of the art scanning array. No burners on the engines, so it's subsonic, and with no radar, IRST only, and no apparent gun, that means heat-seeker missiles only. So WHAT mission could this abortion POSSIBLY be for, other than cheering up the folks at home, and giving everyone the warm fuzzies at how great the national manufactuerers are? I give it a 2 out of 10, and that's only for effort!
