Love it! In fact, all Japanese weapons platforms (tanks, warships etc) should be able to transform themselves into super robots!

I don't doubt the japanese could actually make something like that, but against 4 million zentraedi warships, you'll need a lot of them.

Maybe their new aircraft carrier will make up the difference

This is much pretty!

No internal weapon bays. weird.

Are the japanese so immersed in anime that even their engineers will make jets that look like they came out of robotech and the like? Hell yeah!

PAY ATTENTION guys!

The CGI art is ignoring functionality. No way this design is going to fly or be approved by any State in the world.

Please be well aware that "Stravatti" Defense Industry is a hoax. This company has no credibility, capacity, resources, infastructure, or the technical know-hows to build a single aircraft proto-type or to compete professionally with corporate giants who manufacture 4th Generation fighters and building 5th Generation proto-types.

The site does use existing and realistic components (Radar, Targeting Systems, Engine, NAV, COM), but are completely incompatible with the design. This means that this aircraft is by no means stealthy and will surely emit massive electronic signatures.

This toy ain't gonna fly either. The so-called "F-26S" is aerodynamicaly ridiculous. Pure science fiction. If you actually believe such an aircraft is approved for proto-type development and government funded, you've been defying the natural laws of science.

The Japanese did not design this. The Japanese Aviation Industry will design something more convetional and realistic.

We knew it was a lie, but you've just broken our hearts. It would be nice to see a jet that looks good and is designed by somebody else besides the USA. I guess i was asking for too much.

Play it again sam.

I don't know, if they will sell some to Australia htey might to Japan too.

Well since we aren't buying F22's then I don't think it's an issue. We are buying Joint Strike Fighters.

I would see no problem selling Raptors to both Australia or Japan. Both should be armed to the Teeth with China and North Korea acting the way they are now

But yes, I think we should buy F22's, but I doubt it'll happen.
