So they begin to spend $Bn on more and more elaborate weapons systems to challenge a non-existent threat. Our plan to destroy them is working, it got rid of the USSR, now China, just the USA to go.
Considering they have been securing massive massive mineral resources in africa for the next 50-100 years, I am sure that we will be at war with them in the next 20.

#13What does this prove? Apparently, they have a new airplane. Is this plane really stealth? What are its capabilities? Does this really matter?
It doesn't look stealthy - it has large fins, a big cockpit bump, and the engines don't seem to shield their exhaust.
Anyone know more about this subject, and can explain?

#14I so guess all these years of exfiltrating military design secrets from the West has finally paid off.

"The way in which the J-20 was unveiled also reflects China’s use and control of information technology to support national interests. The test airfield is located in the city of Chengdu and is not secure, with many public viewing points. Photography is technically forbidden, but reports suggest that patrols have been permitting the use of cell phone cameras."

China is continually at war with their citizenry. I'm sure they'll find a use for it in Tibet.

Yes. And they're not shy about it either. "The way in which the J-20 was unveiled also reflects China’s use and control of information technology to support national interests.
