Folks, not sure if its a timing issue but the front undercarriage doors close pretty late into the take off compared to the rear one. Looks and makes it look ugly during take off.

The PAK-FA is more like a MKI with internal weapons bay, all sharp corners to make it stealth. Sukhoi company can now earn hard money selling this beauty rather than SU-30s.

If the canopy release is not clean the second pilot's ejection seat will hit against the frame.
