Sukhoi Superjet official presentation
Not as exciting as Su-35 or PAK FA, but an extremely important program for Sukhoi: Superjet was officially presented yesterday. The date of the first flight was delayed, but Sukhoi guarantees that will be this year.
The plane is nice, but I didn't like the painting. http://en.rian.ru/photolents/20070926/80949109.html

I didn't like the way they painted the Russian flag under the cockpit windows. By the way, won't the white painting directly under the windows cause much glare?

Not really, since its probably matte. Otherwise the eurowhite liveries of today would be so popular. For example Airfrance or Lufthansa, it can't get any whiter than that but they use matte paint around the cockpit windows.

New picture of the Superjet, now from Airliners.net. Much bigger and better photo:
