sigh...when will you chinese boys ever learn the value of humility? Granted, china is an economuc power and a rising military power as well. But please note the keyword here is "rising". The capabilities of almost all chinese jets are largely obscured and usually hyped up fanboy rants in the public domain. The united states, russia, etc have been developing aircrafts for ages....and at unimaginably high budgets. It will take time to get there. What china needs to do first is assert itself in the asian sector. Right now you have competition from japan, sk, israel and india. Even the middle eastern countries feild proven jets and systems that surpassess the chinese. Its commendable the nation is developing its own systems. But road ahead is quite long...
