GE can do without the Pentagon now - Immelt will make sure they share ALL their technology with China - in the name of creating ‘jobs’, of course. China has a stealth bomber to get flying after all, and there are all manner of nuclear plants to build for them - not that China’s in any sort of arms race against the USA or anything.
So the F136 engine design, specs, tools, dies, test data, etc, is now in China and, shortly, in the J-20.
This deal is comparable to the Loral-Clinton-China deal for missile guidance.
