[Manticore]

ive compared Shafaq's frontal design e korean 5th gen. concept... somewhere in this thread-- stunningly similar

Extensive use of LERXs is going to be a grt problem; especially if they are all-moving...The design appeals to me that Iramians some how only wanted an increased Lift coefficient planform. LERX after/before the wings signify that this design is optimised for increased lift by the main airframe ...& this isn't surprising because the Iranians will be using underpowered engines...so why not leech out more lift alone from the airframe

In fact, the LERX is shorter. I've made the picture you are referring to and it is based on a small model in one of the Iranian military exhibitions which came out to be inaccurate. Just compare the LERX's size with the real prototype to see the differences.

Plz do post the pics of the real one...& I meant no offence

^^ Comparing strategic bombers [B1 & the TU-160] not the TU-22 because it ain't strategic in nature rather a short range tactical bomber:
Now the TU-160 is clealry superior to the B-1 simply because of its much powerful engines.


compare this with the B1


overall design is kind-off similar but one must note the notable speed of the TU-160 [2.1M] thats is simply twice the B1 [1.2M]
other parameters fairly are equal

B-1 can perform low level flights + it is semi stealthy.

ahhmmmm....Wrt to Iraqis; Palestians; Libyans...Yes; not to Russians

B-1 has RCS of about 1m2 everywhere even on Mars.

The real picture is this one:

You can see that the LERX didn't pass the cockpit's end completely. But in my picture, it is longer and passes the cockpit completely.

The fuselage (pronounced /ˈfjuːzəlɑːʒ/; from the French fuselé "spindle-shaped") is an aircraft's main body section that holds crew and passengers or cargo.

* 1: Subsonic
* 2: High-speed / supersonic
* 3: High-capacity subsonic
* 4: High-maneuverability supersonic
* 5: Flying boat
* 6: Hypersonic

They don't have SAMs on MARS

Rectangular Super Hornet vs oval Hornet air intakes

the latter one was the Super Hornet I suppose
