Lol, looks like they really did copy everything they could from the F-22, including its problems
What more proof does the wotld need that the Chinese are the worst thieves in the history of the planet? I was totally shocked when I first saw photos of "their" other stealth plane. It looks nothing like anythung our military has recently put out.
Combat won't be a problem. The Chinese can't see over the controls.Nice thing about the Chinese copying our stuff is we'd already know its weaknesses and how to successfully engage it, rather than being surprised when we encounter it in combat.
So you get a fighter in the basic shape of a stealth. However, it has no stealth properties. Forward canards are huge radar signatures (J-20), so are exhaust nozzles. No thrust vectoring or supercruise and the engines are a disaster. It probably doesn't have stealth coating, its radar is probably very sub-par.
So really, all this is is a very unrealiable fighter that was made to look stealth but has no properties of a modern fighter. lol.
:thumbsup:As an American taxpayer I am outraged that something I paid for could have such shoddy workmanship.

I like how everyone here assumes that the Chinese have absolutely no technical knowledge and simply made a plane that "looks stealthy." And I'm sure you're all experts in stealth aircraft design?
Go look at the fraction of engineering and science Ph.D. students in America in the best programs, you'd be surprised at how many of them come from the PRC. Given today's economic environment, the vast majority of these people will return to China after completing their degrees.
Look at the Russian PAK-FA, which is the Russian equivalent for this Chinese 5th generation, and compare it against the F22. F22: $70 billion R&D, $150 million per unit; PAK FA: $20 billion R&D, $70 million per unit. To say nothing about the failures of the F22 program, you're comparing a BMW to a Toyota.
If you look closely, it says foxconn on them.

The stereotype that Chinese, or Asians in general I suppose, are short? lulzWhat is that supposed to mean? 0.0
