Sukhoi has just released images of Russia’s 5th generation stealth fighter plane, the T-50 (PAK FA – Perspektivny Aviatsionny Kompleks Frontovoy Aviatsii—Future Tactical Air System), wearing a new color scheme that seems to have replaced the previous splinter livery.

The new color scheme loosely reminds the one of a shark, with the upper section painted in dark grey with white underneath.

Russian camo scheme are always extremely interesting. And cool.
