I'm going to explode if I wont get my fix of PAK FA pictures :O
По отзывам очевидцев испытаний, по силуэту Т-50 более всего напоминает американский многоцелевой истребитель Raptor F-22.
I thought this said: As per eyewitness of testing as per silhouette T-50 "bolee" all reminds of american multifunction fighter (actually istrebitel would mean eliminator) Raptor F-22.
I am not russian by the way and I am just picking out words.

The first web server to host these pictures is going to go down into total and utter freaking meltdown.
