Just to add, here's some pics of the J-31.

Too bad there's no respectable tag we can give some of the knockoff or equivalent designs from the Chinese we have been able to with the Russians: AMRAAM*ski*, for example.

It will probably perform like every other Chinese knockoff.

Not saying the J-31 is intended to compete directly with the F-35A but here are some of the F-35A's specs just for fun:

Not tham I'm into planes that much (ufos :roll but it looks a bit like that American plane. Is it F35?

a reply to: Sammamishman

Anyone else think they're building 4th gen aircraft in 5th gen bodies?

Kind of looks like an f-15/35 hybrid. Two engines and reduced weight with similar thrust/performance? Eh these Chinese planes are like that girl you see every day, looks good, but is always alone; something is off-putting.
