The pictures I linked seem to be mockups done by the Japanese Defence Agency:

Dont know if hoax is the right word but it's pretty close, STAMATTI has been pumping out this stuff for quite a while now most likely to lure unsuspecting investors.

Does anyone speak Japanese? The link I posted has this through Bablefish:

Quote:
Recent topics Here, it introduces from the research and development which has done in the Technical Research and Development Institute, concerning recent topics. High motion flight control system? All the machine actual large RCS test models? When developing the future fighter plane, it is required, the maneuverability which is superior is had, the research regarding the control of flight of the aircraft which at the same time is difficult to be inspected by the radar is done. As for this research, not only moving the control surface and the like, it is something which verifies the technique which controls the fuselage making use of the thrust and the like by the engine. The figure all machine actual large RCS which is used in order to verify the radio wave reflected quality of the stealth high motion form which is designed by the above-mentioned purpose at apparatus size (Radar Cross Section) is the test model. Furthermore, it executes also the flight test which is due to the radio control which uses the reduction model of the same form from 18.

It's not a corporate website, it is a Japanese military agency. I Google searched for some verification of the website:

http://web-japan.org/links/education/research/police.html

http://read.jst.go.jp/ddbs/plsql/KKN_eg_14?code=A006000000

http://memory.loc.gov/911/catalog/1115.html

The thread you linked to refers to two different things. As that thread originator states, the F-3/F-36 is a fictional aircraft (from an RPG I believe), and he comments on the similarity it has to the actual Japanese concept, "strangely similar and a real project." I wouldn't consider them similar in design at all though.

It appears to be an official website, it would be nice to find a Japanese speaker to translate better.

The real question is do the Japanese know what they're doing with stealth aircraft design :?:

I'm betting my two cents on your theory, Kap...
there will always be some fool around on earth, and a smart guy seeking for him - and, as in Naples they use to say, if they meet the bargain has made! :wink: :twisted:
