Looks great, probably flies great too.

Overpowered F-16XL with IAI/Elbit electronics.
Could outperform a fulcrum, but i doubt if it can outturn Flankers or the swept-wing Sukhoi.

The would-be J-10 picture is a photoshopped EF-2000 prototype (2 engines, wrong winglets)

The real J-10 looks more like the MiG MFI with a single tail, although it has the high placed canards which the lavi has
Russian planes: IL-76 (all standard length ones),  Tu-154 and Il-62, Tu-134 and [url=http://an24.uw.hu/]An-24RV[/ur
