More like F-16 designs Israel supplied to China, a la the ‘Lavi’ fighter, and almost sold an AWACS system to them, but were forced to back off from doing so.

China did not need F-16s from Israel, which it never got. Pakistan, China's ally/client has these. Israel provided some technical data from its Lavi project. However, the Chinese have also gotten technical data from European countries (Rafale, Grippen, Eurofighter, Drakken, Mirage 2000.)
You also seemed to miss the whole point when I wrote "Besides with China supporting Irans nuclear program and selling the J-10 to Pakistan as well as offering it to the Arab countries, I don't see a redux."
The J-10/F-10 is the program that was helped by Lavi technology and is being sold to Israel's enemies.

Israel offered China the Phalcon AESA AEW/AWACS system, which is in no way based on US technology.Because all Israeli foreign arms sales are reveiwed by the PEntagon, the US stopped the deal. You just proved my point here. Israel will not cross the US. And you should look up the Harpy deal and what Israel did for the US.
