oh
that makes sense, maybe try quote that bit in the future though so its less confusing

I am sorry, where?
I cant find that 11kw value anywhere
It has an assisted kill with some MiG-31BMs down in Crimea, but is it really the same if it was only present for a sensor handoff from 200km away?

Erm did you even read my message properly? I mentioned from some angles the engine is visible, especially when looking from a bit towards sides, but its less exposed than su57 tho.
Point is the felon also minimizes frontal exposure using radar blockers and ramp inlets.

What all 5 of them? Lol
The main problem there is the irst is fully reflecting, when not in use it rotates and is covered in a thick layer of RAM, the creator of the sim redid the sim considering ram over irst and its housing.
Here is the result
Its less but there are around 40+ of them now, serially
And 12 prototypes (2 static)

So it really doesnt matter its still current Russian tech VS 40 yr old US tech and its just Slightly better? Lol
No, it didn’t get on my nerves. People have posted that picture multiple times, implying that represents a combat ready F22.

the whole point of the picture was that stealth like f22 require more maintenace and cost.
and if not treated well can be bad or break like the picture ( sometime even a small bird strike can cause the plane to be non-combat active service )

Ok i was seeing some other pic mb
It just says consumes 11kw, nothing about peak power, cooling and processing on addition to the average 7.7kw can take that much too
And even then it says the problems were gradually overcome
If a component consumes x amount of power, it’s the the power over time, so avarage. A jackhammer for example spikes in power, they only consume a couple of kilowatts but during short moments, their peak power goes up to dozens of kilowatts.
It is not peak power, when a component or system consumes x amount power, it’s the avarage.
