Well China makes some stuff of their own that are very next level. Chengdu J-36, Shenyang J-50.
But they could use hands on experience to find weaknesses in the F35 which will make it’s way to Chinese ally Russia which is Europe’s main enemy. As a country who only had F35s now this is a big problem.
Just another “free thinker” who believes that a country of 1 billion people, with good quality cheap/free higher education, a massive industrial base, and half a trillion dollars of annual R&D expenditure, can’t develop tech on their own. I’m sure there’s industrial/military espionage going on, but China is also pulling ahead in many research areas independently. With the way US is treating its scientists, I fully expect in a few years China will be the dominant STEM player in the world, US being second or third after europe.
Would they benefit from having an F-35 to take apart? Yes. Will they build a relatively competitive fighter jet without any F-35 tech for half the price or less? Also yes.
just another paranoid American! The reason i love china is because you guys are shitting bricks about it! Anything that scares yanks is good on my book!
I don’t think China wants or needs this trash

They already got that information from some secretary of defense signal chat probably.
China wouldn’t want access to an enemies tech?.. And I call myself a dumbass.
They can just get that info out in the open the secretary of defense signal chats, it’s hard to be a dumbass when dealing with bigger dumbasses.
China wants every bit of the F35s technology.
Just another tankie who thinks China’s advances aren’t based on what they’ve been able to steal from other countries.
