Truly the Saturn V of our age, but even bigger!

@Ryder , I remember this from last year or earlier and it popped up again.... I still cant get over how massive this lion is....thats a well fed lion in its prime damn....

Video footage of the dual carrier ops:

Will have to wait for the official report to come later. The pilot was apparently saying there were engine problems before this emergency landing....it could be any number of things that required an ejection that was going on at the time, we can't tell from the footage.

Yes South Korea and Brazil are progressing here. They both want a domestic engine in this class for UAVs and small aircraft....that will serve to take things to next tiers just like Turkiye envisages too. India has its HTFE-25 engine in this class as well for same purpose. Iran program here...

I was looking at some numbers a bit earlier: F-22, 2xF-119 = 232kN Using gross weight (roughly halfway between empty and MTOW) of 29.4 tons and dry thrust only gives T/W of 232/(29.4x9.81) = 0.8 Equiv numbers for supercruise capable a/c: Rafale ~ 0.68 EF ~ 0.76 Su-57 ~0.72 Gripen E/F ~ 0.82...

I think it has evolved out of the trench warfare situation that is found now there. i.e Close proximity of EW defences etc and more saturation of those compared to hard kill. So maybe have a bunch of these in the 2nd trench line and operate within some tethered parameters for tactical sensing...
