Pretty interesting to see how quickly China is catching up - even though it's current defense spending is a fraction of that of the states - $78m to $700m.

Interesting times indeed.

Ah the American military types have already poo poo'ed this as always. Chinese bleh ! They could never match our Raptors and the yet to come into service and by the time it comes into sevice will already be outdated in 2016 F 35's . We got advanced avionics, 3D thrust vectoring and look at those canards and exposed engines. Stealth my @ss.

Not just this, but the nuclear subs aswell as the Russian Pak Fa.

^And they've got Tom Cruise teaching at Top Gun!
