J-20 stealth fighter aircraft: China uses 'cyber theft' to bolster its military
https://www.livemint.com ^ | 8/22/2021 | ANI

In 2007 Lockheed Martin had found that Chinese hackers had been stealing technical documents related to the F-35 program The resemblance between Chinese J-20 fighter planes and Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter is "awfully similar".

Peter Suciu, writing in The National Interest, said that there is no denying that Beijing has taken it to heart especially where military hardware is involved. In the spring of 2019, the Pentagon accused China of using "cyber theft" and other methods to bolster its military.

Is it theft if the deep state is complicit?

My SIL works for a subcontractor to Lockheed Martin.
He says the only thing holding the ChiComs back technically is advanced metallurgy in some of the parts.
But their “thousand talents” program is well on the way to solving this.

Thank now how Biden just left a bunch of technical weaponry in Afghanistan so the Taliban can give it to the ChiComs.

And soon, if not already, they will have a ‘Stealth’ model blackhawk helicopter to reverse engineer, thanks to the biden (0bama) giveaway.

Now that China will allowed married Chinese women to have 3 children, the US is finished. American whites on average are not even reproducing.

Question, is it theft or have they been duped?

In the 1980’s the Soviets were trying to steal computer code and the Reagan administration let steal code that had the equivalent of a computer virus time-bomb in the system. It caused a glitch in the switches that controlled the trans-Siberian pipeline, which caused an explosion, which caused a forest fire, that burned an area the size of Tennessee.

What if the PRC has is using “Stolen technology” that isn’t as stealthy as they think it is?

Those days of government agencies having more than their own power at interest I believe are long gone.

I assume the US left behind at least five of each high-tech weapon. One each for China, Russia, Iran, Pakistan, and the Taliban.

One of the biggest failures in war preparations is,
you are always fighting the last war, not the next one.
I submit that F-35s, Ford class aircraft carriers, Abrams tanks are all obsolete. They have their place in lower level
conflicts for sure, but WW-III is going to be fast and messy.
What weapons we have for that war, I hope we never have to use. My bet is we don’t even know what they are. One thing I do know is the Chinese aren’t very innovative, as they killed off or throttled all the non-conforming types.
Like most Democrats, they don’t like creativity and independent thought.
Aloha.

It is not theft if the “theft” is complicit. It is a gift. Our “elites” love the CCP and our “elites” are trash. Just look at the mess they have made of the world in seven months.

That was when our intelligence service were American patriots.

They're all unAmerican Democrat bootlickers now, and who knows how many hate this country and it's citizens?

They have radar too. The issue would be the sensor fusion.

It’s only stealth head-on or from below...marginally.

From all other angles it looks like a C-130.

It has weak engines that last only about 30-40 hours.

It’s just like all other cheap Chinese crap.

Commies steal technology
Examples:
B29/Tu4 bomber
Space shuttle/Buran.
MP44 sturmgewehr/AK 47.
