Chinas stealth fighter to go on show.

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

Earlier this year, a Chinese national, 51-year-old Su Bin, was sent to prison for his part in stealing US military plans and sending documents to Beijing.

The documents were reported to include plans for the F-35 and F-22 fighter jets, which would have enabled the Chinese military to rapidly catch up with US capabilities.

It takes a lot longer than a year to take espionage information and fold it into a product that's been in development for years. Also remember that the F-22 is now over a decade old.

Makes zero mention of J-20.

I doubt it will even be able to fly with all that lead paint weighing it down....

They use lead paint on toys exported to the US, not their cutting edge jet.

MiG 1.44 had a big influence in it.

China has become the latest country to successfully test fire a hypersonic missile, it has been claimed.

A Chinese J-16 strike fighter test-fired the giant missile earlier this month, successfully destroying the target drone at a very long range, according to Popular Science.

Its experts analysed pictured of the launch, and concluded the missile was 19 feet long, and roughly 13 inches in diameter, meaning it could hit targets up to 300 miles away.

This missile would easily outrange any American (or other NATO) air-to-air missile.'

They analysed photos of a J16 taking off with two of the very long range air to air missile (VLRAAM)

'Reports are that the size would put into the category of a very long range air to air missile (VLRAAM) with ranges exceeding 300 km (roughly 186 miles), likely max out between 250 and 310 miles.'

'Additionally, the VLRAAM's powerful rocket engine will push it to Mach 6 speeds, which will increase the no escape zone (NEZ), that is the area where a target cannot outrun the missile, against even supersonic targets like stealth fighters,'

The new missile also has a radically updated radar system, and an infrared/electro-optical seeker (visible under the yellow-orange cover on the forward section above the nosecone), and satellite navigation system.

Once close it its target, lateral thrusters boost its manoeuvrability.

Russia is believed to have recently tested its 'Object 4202' hypersonic rocket, and the Us Air Force has tested its 'WaveRider' hypersonic craft.

Su Bin was placed in the Sin Bin for stealing military information
