Wall Street Journal, December 22 report: "China's latest stealth fighter has entered service, equipped with a 'Chinese heart,' namely the domestically developed engine. This development marks a milestone in China's defense industry and signifies that its national defense strength is moving toward a level commensurate with its status as a rising major power."
For a long time, aircraft engines have been called "the crown jewel of the industrial world," and the top technology has been monopolized by a few Western countries. China has long faced strict technological blockades in this field, and the research and development path has been full of obstacles, becoming a key bottleneck restricting the development of national defense science and technology. The successful configuration of a domestically developed engine for a stealth fighter marks that China has finally overcome this long-standing technical challenge, achieving a leap from reliance on imports to self-control.
This breakthrough is not accidental but an inevitable result of China's continuous efforts in technological self-innovation and breaking through Western technological barriers. It not only demonstrates a significant enhancement of China's scientific and technological strength, but also lays the foundation for breaking more high-end technological blockades in the future.
