China will "steal" the technology of the US F-35! On November 14, according to a report by the New York Times, sources with knowledge of the matter revealed that while the Trump administration was trying to finalize the sale of advanced F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, a Pentagon intelligence assessment report raised concerns: if the deal is finalized, China may obtain the aircraft's technology. Pentagon officials are worried that F-35 technology could be leaked through Chinese espionage activities or through Sino-Saudi security cooperation channels.
US media said that the US' top fighter jet, the F-35, will give its air force a significant advantage in stealth performance and help pilots grasp complex battlefield situations in ways that existing aircraft cannot match. In short, the F-35 represents the highest level of Western aircraft - both in terms of capability and in prestige and show-off capital. How do we view this report from the US media? To be honest, it seems that the US side has nothing left other than bragging and slandering.
Is there anything worth envying about the US F-35? A single-engine, weak maneuverability, and radar cross-section of up to 0.5 square meters, we don't know what the US media has to brag about? Our J-35 has a radar cross-section of the order of 0.01 square meters; does the US envy it? Our J-20 and J-35 are equipped with gallium nitride active phased array radars, with a detection range exceeding 260 kilometers, while the F-35 and F-22 still use gallium arsenide radars. What kind of pride do they have?
As for the air-to-air missiles and combat radius, we have already surpassed the US fifth-generation fighters. This is even more so when it comes to our J-20S, which is dual-engine and can carry loyal wingmen for coordinated operations. The US media doesn't know that we have already test-flown our sixth-generation aircraft several times, while the US sixth-generation aircraft is still at the PPT stage? For the US F-35, we have no interest at all. The US should come up with something new. A fallen nobleman carrying outdated treasures to show off and smear us for stealing technology is both self-pitying and a bit dark in heart.
