Is This The Biggest Chinese Rip-Off Ever? People's Republic Unveils Stealth Fighter... But It Looks Remarkably Similar To US Jet -- Daily Mail
*China's first stealth plane spotted on test runs, making China one of three nations with stealth jet technology
*Critics claim this is a rip-off of America's F-22 jets, which cost $66.7billion to develop
Flying over the skies of Chengdu in southwest China, the Chinese's latest stealth plane - the J-20 Might Dragon - is a testament to China's growing prowess in military technology.
The debut flight of the plane may serve as a warning to the U.S. air force, which has been plagued by a list of problems in their jets - including the revelation that some of their jets have a faulty oxygen system which have slowly been poisoning their pilots.
Sightings of the black plane taking off have again led to claims that the plane was developed off the back of stolen U.S. or Russian plans, a claim strongly denied by China.
Update: Is New China Stealth Fighter Rival to Troubled US F-22 Raptor? -- ABC News
My Comment: I suspect that the avionics on the F-22 are vastly superior to what the Chinese have .... at least I hope so.
