My predictions:
The Italian model will looks absolutely fantastic. Sleek lines, beautiful crafting and will fly 1 time and then never start-up again.
The Russian model will look like a committee designed junker put together from things found in the parts bun. It will take a terrible toll on pilots and remain unfinished until "stolen" by the PRC/CCP where it will be 're-engineered', gloriously launched with a fawning media in attendance and then crash and burn with no one publishing what happened.
