The Military Fighter Aircraft Market 2012-2022
The military fighter aircraft market is set for a period of great activity over the coming decade, as the demand for 5th generation fighter jet capability continues among the world’s leading military nations. Budget restraints and spiralling costs related to fighter aircraft programmes will act as a drag on the market; however the advent of [...]
Leaked pictures of cutting-edge Chinese fighter
On September 15-16, images of the cutting-edge Chinese fighter jet appeared on the web. The state-of-the-art aircraft bears strong resemblance to the American F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II. It looks like a traditional stealth fighter and will probably be known as J-21, although the Chinese authorities have never commented either on the name of [...]
MiG denies stealth technology transfer to China for J-20 fighter
Russia has never transferred any stealth technology to China to assist it with its J-20 Black Eagle fifth-generation stealth fighter prototype, Russian plane maker MiG said on Friday. “We are not delivering any equipment to China, and never have,” MiG spokeswoman Yelena Fyodorova said. MiG’s statement follows claims in the Russian and foreign press last [...]
China’s 5th Gen fighter ‘a showoff’
China’s fifth-generation fighter program is more for effect than substance, Russia’s leading aircraft maker said on Monday. China carried out its first test-flight of a fifth-generation stealth fighter in January. “It was more a demonstration than a real program,” Mikhail Pogosyan, head of United Aircraft Corporation, said. The Chinese aircraft industry is developing successfully but [...]
China stealth-jet firm eyes US contracts: report
The maker of China’s new stealth fighter plans to team up with a small California firm for what would seem like mission impossible: bidding for US defence contracts, a report said Friday.

Pentagon Spokesman Discusses China, North Korea
The jury is still out on China’s apparent fifth-generation J-20 stealth aircraft, Pentagon spokesman Geoff Morrell said today. “The J-20 stories, frankly, that I’ve seen over the past couple weeks … have been a little over the top,” Morrell said during a Pentagon news conference. He noted that reports of “successful testing” ignore the unknowns [...]
Europe Divided Over China Arms Sales
Britain is on a collision course with the European Union over the sale of arms to China. Since the Beijing government crackdown on protestors in Tiananmen Square in 1989, EU member states have been banned from selling goods that could be used by the Chinese military. China’s new J-20 stealth fighter roars along the runway [...]
Missiles off target in major Taiwan drill
Taiwan held a major missile drill Tuesday just days after rival China unveiled an aircraft that uses stealth technology, but several misses spoiled the exercise. Before an audience that included President Ma Ying-jeou, five out of 19 missiles failed to hit their targets at the Chiupeng military base in the island’s south. A sixth found [...]
China got stealth tech from Russia: US lawmaker
China got the technology for its first stealth fighter jet from Russia, a senior US lawmaker said Tuesday, one week after the airplane apparently made its maiden flight. “My understanding is that they built it on information that they received from Russia, from a Russian plane, that they were able to copy,” House Armed Services [...]
