China will publicly present its new stealth fighter jet for the first time at an air show next week, the Chinese air force revealed Friday.
The J-20 will be unveiled next week at Airshow China 2016 in Zhuhai, Guangdong. The J-20 and J-31 fighter jets are designed to close the gap between American and Chinese air power. The Pentagon said that the two fifth generation fighters will permit the evolution of the People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF), allowing the transition from a defensive territorial force to one with the ability to carry out offensive strikes, reports Reuters.
The J-20 and J-31 are often compared to the F-22 and F-35. That China’s new fighters sharing similarities with American jets is not a coincidence.
China claims that its stealth fighters were “independently developed by China,” but evidence suggests that Chinese hackers stole the technology from the U.S.
In 2009, Chinese cyber criminals allegedly breached U.S. systems and illegally acquired critical information on the F-35 program. While the Pentagon and Lockheed Martin said that no classified documents were taken, the National Security Administration (NSA) reportedly revealed later that the intruders stole more than 50 terabytes of data — the equivalent of over five Libraries of Congress — on the F-35, the most expensive weapons program in U.S. history, as well as the B-2 bomber and the F-22.
China lifted data on key radar systems, engine schematics, and general aircraft designs.

That H-1B foreign tech worker program is killing US!
Cruz wants another 325,000 of these thieves!
With Obama at the helm, I doubt that China had to ‘steal’ the technology. They may have had to make it look like they stole it though.

Wow
Our pilots die but our defense companies actually profit, they can turn around and say they need money for to get ahead of the Chinese.
Understand what’s going on here:
when they hire these Chinese Engineers, they want the technology to be stolen so that the taxpayer has to again pay to push ahead the technology again.
We’re being played for suckers.
Eisenhower warned us.
Sec of State ClinToon received a yet undisclosed payment for the plans to both planes, doncha know....
Where the hell were our vounted internet security services when these attacks were occurring?
The taxpayers spent hundreads of billions of dollars on weapon systems that the potential enemies of the United States were able to get for next to nothing.
There go’s our air supremacy.
At the unclassified level - yup.
Stolen? Bullshit!
Probably half of an F-35 is made with chinese parts.
If GE (government electric), Boeing, or Lockheed-Martin is involved, then the chinese tech is closer to 75%.
Ping
Maybe it's time to use a classified system like the Dept. of State uses.. oh yeah !.. um, on second thought ..
Maybe we should not use Chinese computer chips in our Dept. of Defense .. what , there are no non-Chinese made chips.. um
Maybe we should do what the Russians have learned to do ... revert to using typewritters and using closed systems !
Big deal.
Their hardware is irrelevant unless they have diversity training and feminazi’s and homosexuals and transgenders (complete with free surgery benefits) and gender-neutral job classifications in their armed forces, they’ll be no match for the fundamentally transformed USA.
Oh, and if they don’t have ‘walk in a woman’s shoes for a day’ day to demoralize and humiliate the ranks, what good are they?
Stolen?
They bought it fair and square from the KKKlintoons and Obozo, Inc................
Conflicting stories. Earlier today there was a story flacking a Chingchang J-20 aircraft supposedly an F-22 Raptor knock-off. Now this, flacking an F-35 knock-off? Hunh?!

Just as the betrayal of nuclear secrets to the Soviets seventy years ago enabled them to square up for the Cold War, this will empower the Chinese ... tuff times ahead
