love to see some actual evidence of these aircraft.....

Looks like Indias Political mess is weighing heavily on its defence future..Do it for long enough and Pakistan and China will start looking across the border in far more menacing tones..Indias reliance on NATO support will be its only saving feature..Japan is ideal for technology advancement in very short periods of time.Its toe into the stealth world will see it dive deeply into the future and will rapidly push it pass Chinas efforts.

That won't happen. The only evidence would be if a major conflict erupted. Until then, they remain secret. I work in the engineering field (Mechanical), and I know at least 3 people who have had top secret clearance at one time or another working on defense projects, one Mechanical Engineer, one Aerospace Engineer, and one Structural Engineer. None of them divulge what they know do to sworn secrecy, but the suggestions they make are: Whatever you think we have, in fact we have much better.

Hmmmmm...my mentality is still early 1990s: cold war over, Soviet Union got it ass kicked and Russia is a joke that won't hurt anyone ever again, USA Number 1, China developing and as it gets wealthier communism will be overthrown by a wealthy middle class who crave democracy.

Hmmmm...20 years later, shows what happens when you let your guard down.

The ones that have the proof of them are the ones that either take their obligations seriously and won't leak it, or don't want to end up either in jail or talking to a DIA officer in a locked room for four hours.

(Slightly related.)Anybody seen this !? Looks impressive if a little Raptor like ;-)
