Can anyone shed some light on how F35 and F22 do not show on radar when they open their IWB doors, if actually they don't show on radars. And can Kaan not do the same trick.
There is no trick, when the IWB doors open they of course disturb the planes profile, they guy was once again speaking nonsense. And it doesn't take a "salise" either. You can easily find videos if you just googled F-35 / F-22 firing a missile.

Here is the link to first video for F-35:


And here is one F-22 firing missiles, launching flares and even firing its gatling:

If IWB doors opens, it can be seen on Radar right. The “TV Expert” said, the AI on KAAN knows, where the radar beams come from (angle) and turn the plane to become less visible. Is that correct?
What’s happen, when the plane turn his ‘back’ to the radar beams, during he opens his IWB doors ? Can the radar detect the open doors?

The IWB became an issue after the Yugoslavia war and the shot down of a F-117. We can just speculate, but after this accident, we can imagine they improved the whole system.

Don't modern AESAs pulse really fast? If there is a continous radar wave coming in, it doesn't matter if it turns or not, the opposing side is going to get some information out of it the moment it opens.

That F-117 fell because of mission planning and flying the exact same route a billion times. And also, stealth isn't completely invisibility, just reduced sight. An F-35 probably can't go right up an S-400's ass, IWB closed or not.

If I may,
However there is a merit to doing this task in a very short time and race is on to achieve the lowest time.
I think everyone would agree with this.

Problem with shortening that timeframe is down to very fast and powerful actuators needing to be heavy to handle that kind of load, and this all being on an aircraft going 500kmh, hence it needing to be as light as possible. Same with the door itself.

Actual reason people disagree and lambast the guy on the tv is because it's not physically possible to complete the action of opening door, extending and releasing the missile and closing the door under a second. Saying "a shorter timeframe to complete this action is advantageous" is very different than saying it can be done in miliseconds. And by that effect, if someone is very certain on something this clear and basic(that this action can't be done in miliseconds), it's very possible that the person in question with a stick in his hand have also misunderstood other things that were told to him by the engineers during his trip, and he's an unreliable source at best and we shouldn't put much thought into his words and claims on tv.
