So this is just like Su 30 MKI which India assembles with some parts from Israel and France.
So this means unlike F 7 (Mig 21 copy) China can't produce more than the frames provided by Russia and can't export to any other country? right? Then why there is this J11 B and J 15 which are photo copy of SU 27 and SU 33
This is by far a valid question and not flaming I guess! it's a question about intellectual property right?
My dear Harrymohan, since when you started to get so interesting in defence issues other than women? sorry to say that, but its better to stick to something you are more familiar with=women abuse topic than defence, do you even know you need knowledge even to flame?
And when even Russian had no issue with the so-called copy right, why you are so concerned? BTW, there are no "patents" regarding weapons.

Russia has no questions to China about copying military equipment
FARNBOROUGH. July 19 (Interfax-AVN) - China is using Russian and Soviet know-how to develop and build aircraft, Alexander Fomin, first deputy head of the Federal Military-Technical Cooperation Service, said at a news conference at the Farnborough air show.
"It is an accomplished fact. China is vigorously developing its defense industry, not without Russia's assistance, of course," he said.
The Soviet Union built about 3,000 enterprises, while Russia handed China licenses to make aircraft and components," he said.
"We handed over a large amount of know-how to China, including information related to the defense industry. It is not surprising that it repeats itself in Chinese products," he said.
Asked whether China has developed a fighter jet which it claims excels Russia's Sukhoi Su-33, Fomin said, "I can neither confirm, nor deny this."
"Concerning the Su-33, Russia did not deliver such planes to China. If our Chinese partners have them, they were not received from Russian sources," he said.
Fomin said Russia has no questions to China so far. "We have an agreement on the protection of intellectual property rights. If we uncover copyright violations, we will deal with this within the framework of the agreement," Fomin said.
