No need to copy, just wait for the next Democrat in the White House and buy it.
“without actually fighting,”
Sun Tzu hasn’t been forgotten over there. Trump knows Sun Tzu as well.
China should be advised that if they ever get close, we will provide Japan and South Korea with our support for them to build nufleets of boomer subs.
Their own fleets...
Simply sit back and WAIT for silicon valley to hire Chinese engineers for 0.1% less than American kids.
In due course, those guys will hand all that taxpayer tech to China’s air force, no problem
THEN:
The US tech companies will dust off “those, uh..American flags, over there, or down in the basement” then cry to political leaders about “needing to keep OUR DEAR FLY BOYS SAFE”
And then they’ll get punished by being awarded MORE MONEY.
Nice scam, huh..?
For them to safeguard our tech DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.
The Russians know this, which is why they control and limit the technology transfer.
When I hear about a country that wants to develop its defenses so they can win without fighting, the words “Maginot Line” come to mind.

I want to lose weight without dieting or exercising :)
The problem is no one knows what an Air Force may look like in 50 years.
I mean hell you could have something like the XB-37 dropping swarms of drones among any airspace in the world that would render manned combat impossible.
Even if it comes to drone vs. drone does that define the without fighting goal?
It will be drone swarms where each drone will actually be smart. Terminator plus wings times 1000.
Air Forces are expensive! Trump is bleeding their money machine dry. Rubber on the ramp doesn’t mean crap. It is the amount and quality of the training.
Exactly right on all Chinese nationals who are hired by US tech companies are potential spies for the PRC. This is common sense. I mean they were not even born here.
They get educated in America. Who paid for this full freight education? That “who” is who they are obligated to spy for and funnel innovative US tech over to China. Obviously including military technology. This is a no brainer.
That pretty much leaves disease. To lift Letterman’s joke....
...China wants an air force that can defeat the U.S. ‘without actually fighting’...
Just elect a Democrat President & that will happen
I have read there are 250K from PRC studying in the US.
Trump’s trade policy is having an adverse effect on China’s military. Let’s hope he keeps up the pressure China is heavily dependant on us for trade.
Trade tensions with U.S. blow hole in budget for China’s newest aircraft carrier.
China will surpass us in economic & military power in the next 20 years, perhaps even 15 years.
And our NeoCons (Bolton, Pompeo & others) are pushing Russia (which has top military technology) closer to China, for no reason beneficial to us.
Financed by forty years of stupid US trade policies, and many ‘Americans’ are fighting Trump to keep those stupid policies going.
Theoretically, silencing satellites and EMP-ing the grid is game set match America. We better have the answer. I think we do but the political will is an equal EMP.
