In Soviet Russia, the jet fighter kills you

Not quite normal fare for the forum, but this footage of the new Soviet Knaapo SU-35/37 is pretty friggin' cool (once you get past the cheesy CGI intro).

OMG... it's got air brakes!

You know, the air brakes were cool, but I couldn't help shit myself over the awesome cuts to mirror-angle, photo-negative shots of the aircraft. Also, the circa-1992 sub-rave techno music was also very awesome. None of this, however, could top the awesome finale where to two photographers are shooting the shit. Talk about pulse-pounding!
