You could be right that China had referenced US stealth technology, but the stealth
coating on F117s are known to be "not transparent" to radars during rainy days.
In addition, F117s sacrifice manueverability and performance to exchange for stealthy
and it is not China's philosophy as they always believe in air-superiority first.
I don't think China would be so stupid for not knowing the above and copy the crappy
technology completely.
BTW, did you recently comment on J20s canard wings and laugh at its negative stealth
contribution? So, why is it now that you are saying China is copying US nighthawks ?
Do we see nighthawks have canard wings that you laugh at ?

You are right, that there was very little to learn from F117. Some people are so stupid to believe that just a few pieces of metal from F117 will tell you something. There was no indications that any foreign country looked at the F117. Some self-hating anti-China people are just jealous of China's progress.
China's indigenous J20 has movable canards and tail fins, a different design. |
