The Sukhoi T-50 has had a pretty secretive development program, but has just made its first flight, a video of which can be seen here along with the news story:

Interesting aircraft, seems like a cross between an SU-27 and an F-22 in terms of appearance.

Very similar release when the Mig29 was reviewed 25 ta 30 years back , as strange as it seems , the aircraft appear to look the same as the western counterpart , just a pity we cannot see one compared maybe for another couple years.
