National Interest: Russia's Lethal PAK-FA Stealth Fighter vs. America's F-22 Raptor: Who Wins?
Moscow vs. Washington for control of the skies. Who would win?
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen! Entering the ring today are the two ultimate stealth fighters of the day, the F-22 Raptor and the PAK FA T-50. The former has already completed its production run (or has it?), the latter will soon begin hatching from its industrial nest (or will it?)
Today we’ll consider which would have the upper-hand at various engagement ranges—blows long and short, all are permitted! And just to keep the audiences on its toes, we’ll examine the battle in backwards order, like in that one Seinfeld episode.

WNU Editor: According to this writer .... Russia's T-50 should not be dismissed .... in fact .... it may even be better stealth fighter.

Yes, T-50 is stealth, but:
1)Only by the geometry it's not as good as the F-22.( watch under the wings...at least)
2)Stealthy is not only "radar" it's also "thermal"...and just a look on both make a big difference.
3)One thing we don't know is integration of sensor "in the skin" of the plane.
4)And an other one is the fusion of data.
The T-50 is may be better on the point 3 and 4, but we don't know.
