I cant help but say this ...the workmanship of American planes just looks and seems much better than Russians....
And before any one says that "this is a just a proto-type" ...well so was YF23....

Anyways you get what you paid for...PAKFA has been developed on a fraction of budget..... and looks like it is going to be one of the most maneuverable planes around !!

You may be right about the workmanship bit but lately I am hearing a lot of "money and quality."

I do not deny that money buys quality but the guys who put that argument do not understand is that the material cost and other costs in other countries like India and Russia are much less than the costs in the US.

While inapt to some, but those who would think deeper would get the connection, the cost of a book in US runs into tens of Dollars. While the same book is available in India for less than 10% of the cost and I do not know how many of you have read books from Mir publications. They were cheaper than Indian books.

So when you talk about quality and money, please do not apply Dollar value to it.

Regards,
Anoop.
