New fighter jet proposal for Replacement of Tornado jet...(2) - French-German New Jet Fighter

As a consequence of proposal in

http://jaesan-aero.blogspot.com/2018/01/new-fighter-jet-proposal-for.html

Few images from Dassault have been released as shown below










As shown in the model, influence various jet fighter can be noticed. 

* Whole configuration is very similar to Pak-Fa without tail part fuselage
  (Large LEX and planform of the main wing)

* Sensor similar to EOTS (F-35) is attached below of the nose

* Large panel at nose (plasma stealth?? of Pak-Fa?)

* 2D Stealth nozzle similar to YF-23 is noticed
  (but French-German could have TVC because there is no obstacle below the nozzle) 



Some noticeable things without influence of the other countries

* Huge uniform delta-wing
  -> it results relatively large control surfaces which should compensate absent of tails
  -> termination of VT and HT : not much emphasize on maneuver? or dependence on TVC?

* Baseline is on the twin-seat
  -> maybe it is the first jet fighter fully considering 'commanding unmanned vehicles'



Changed things compared to the previous 3D images

* Deletion of VT and controllable LERX
  -> Possibilities : less emphasize on maneuver and more on stealth or cruise

* From rounded nozzle to 2D nozzle
  -> TVC can be option, but as a stealth, back-face of engine is too widely exposed compared to F-22



Some Curious thing

* What kind of weapon it will use ?
  -> still, there is no information about it. its fuselage is probably deeper and narrower than F-22
      (similar to Pak-Fa)


Summary

As shown in previous video and updated image, it is probably not simple high end fighter. Because while T-50, F-22 were designed for 'every aspect' of air-to-air combat, but French-German is not. 

Their design is limited to stealth, cruise, sensor, or network capability rather than high class of weapon load, dog-fight. (Similar conclusion from previous article)
