It kind of reminds you of the fictional Soviet fighter jet known as Firefox from the Clint Eastwood movie. As China promises to build up its military to unprecedented levels in the next five years, they are apparently proud and flexing their muscles as they show the world their latest fourth generation fighter jet, the stealthy J-20.
The Blaze reports: China’s aviation industry — both military and civilian — has made rapid progress in recent years but still relies heavily on imported technology. Propulsion technology has been a particular problem, with Russian engines still employed on China’s homemade J-10 fighter jets and the J-11, a copy of Russia’s Su-27 fighter jet.
Gee, all those factories leaving the United States and heading to China appears to be working for the Chinese. It still doesn't appear to match the superiority of the United States Navy and Air Force. If we keep shipping technology to China, how much longer will be before it does?
