Did J-10 really come from Lavi?

[Yongpeng Sun-Tastaufen]

So Lavi flew 1986, canceled in 1987 due to America pressure. Chinese went to Israel and got the prototype. In 1991 J-10 mockup finished identical to Lavi. You be the judge.

Not a total copy of LAVI but mixture of 2 projects, LAVI & canceled J-9 @undertakerwwefan

J-9

J-10 is nowhere CLOSE to J-9. Look at the air intakes.

I am not talking about it is based on J-9 but inspired by both projects (LAVI+J-9) @undertakerwwefan

Identical air intakes is pre requisite to based on. Air intake is one of the most important parts of fuselage.

So by your logic J-10 also based upon Eurofighter/ Mig-1.44 because they have similar air intakes @undertakerwwefan

design of jet can change as the project progresses @undertakerwwefan but theme remains same @undertakerwwefan

How so? You have to look at it holistically.

You must have a hard time recognizing people's faces.

Neither its A total copy of LAVI but inspired i reapeted INSPIRED by both projects (LAVI+J-9) not total based/copy of LAVI @undertakerwwefan just like J-20 which INSPIRED from a MIG-1.44 design but with lots of innovations on it @undertakerwwefan

You must have a hard time recognizing people's faces.

Do you know what is the meaning of CAME FROM and INSPIRED @undertakerwwefan

Hi,

Hi,

Thank you---indeed the J10 is a carbon copy of the Lavi---.

Modern aircraft are not inspired by the design of other aircraft---if a full fledged---flight worthy design is available---.

They are otherwise designed on their own merit---.

So what's the problem even if J10 is an exact copy of the Lavi. It just proves the design is a good one. End of discussion.

There is no contrast. China has made aircraft since 50s.

The basic models：Q-5, J-5, J-6,J-7, J-8,J-9, J-10, J-10B, J-10C,J-11,J-11B, J-15, J-16, J-20, J-31, JH-7, K-8, K8W, L-15, H-5,H-6,H-6K, Y-5,Y-6, Y-7, Y-8, Y-12, Y-20, AG-600, Gaoxin-6, KG-2000, KG-500, C919... and JF-17.
@undertakerwwefan btw, Lavi have participated in actual fighting?

Answer me, how many planes can Israel make?

So what I mean. China is not manufacturing a product. China is manufacturing an industrial system. This is the most complete industrial system in the world.
