No, he was debunking your baseless "China bad" malicious intent with solid arguments that you can't counter, chose to evade and worse retaliate by insulting him:
- You assume picking up a fuselage must lead straight to copying, while it could be used for other purposes say finding weakness, finding soft spots, avoiding mistakes, or even simply scrap as garbage if no value.
- You blatantly ignore the fundamental difference in aerodynamic structure between the two air-frames.
No need for "If", I can also show you a J-10 diagram as well, what's your argument?
My argument was clear, shall I repeat?
On top of the fact that J-10A design employs a delta canard design which is entirely different from F-16, even we just focus on the fuselage, J-10A design employs a splitter plate intake (and then DSI later) while F-16 employs pitot tube intake, how does this contribute to the "links" or "copy" story?

Studying the sections, welds or even debris and look for any design clues, even if that has happened, is an entirely different thing from design "copying", let alone the end products turn out to be completely different things. I would be disappointed if Americans or American-wannabes are only capable of faking "China copy" stories without proof or even a single argument, and worse resort to insult when lies are debunked openly.
