Apparently, we don't have a lot to worry about.

They might be more clever than at first glance,... if one considers that their posting a farce may cause their adversaries to conclude they have no capability.

That thought crossed my mind, but then I wondered that if that were the case, why say anything at all? And, why pull the video so quickly?...

Because pulling the video quickly furthers the illusion of deceit.

So George, do you really believe they have the capability?

To shoot down a jet with a missile? Of course! Ever since Viet Nam.

Poorly phrased question on my part. Do you think their "J10" has that capability?

To re-play a copy of "Top Gun"? I doubt it.

When we have a part...and need to make a new one...we just call it a Chinese blue print....they do that with everything! and have no concern about patens or priporitory rights....seams (it is) wrong, yet they have the strongest currency in the world

Yes but they now make EDO floats and one engineer I spoke with said "not only are they cheap, they are inexpensive" Lot to be said for the quality
