T-50
PAK-FA:
APA
has
received
a
large
number
of
email
queries
asking
the
question:
“when will an analysis of
the PAK-FA be published?” A Technical Report analysing the
PAK-FA is currently in development. The importance of this program is
such that APA will not be releasing this TR until the analysis is
properly completed, and a robust and thorough report can be produced.
Visitors interested in the strategic and operational implications of
the PAK-FA might consider reading the following 2009 NOTAMs: When America’s Stealth Monopoly Ends,
What's Next? and Air
Combat:
Russia’s
PAK-FA
versus
the
F-22
and
F-35; and the 2009 Technical
Report update covering the Tikhomirov NIIP PAK-FA AESA radar. All
indications at this
time are that the conclusions of the two 2009 NOTAMs will firmly hold,
although PAK-FA is more capable in many respects than previously
expected.

in the five
years since the APA website was launched, no less than seventy
six technical reports have been published on the site. As these are
distinct in style and content in comparison with APA Analyses scholarly papers, APA NOTAM articles, and archived
industry journal articles, it was necessary to clearly differentiate
these publications. Reflecting feedback from visitors, APA recently
decided to formally designate all technical report format publications
as APA Technical Reports.
