I’m sure some, if not most, of ‘their’ technology came from the E-3 that crash landed on their turf a few years ago...

The airframe looks like a direct ripoff of a Russian Il-76. Functional, but not exactly cutting-edge stuff.

After the Gulf War ended in 1991, China began to seek cooperation with other countries to build up the core technology of manufacturing AEWC aircraft....However, partners suddenly stopped cooperating after interference from the United States.By "partners" in the above, read "Israel," btw.
Also the EP-3 that landed in China (a passive ELINT bird) in many ways has very little in common in key core technologies with an active radar AEW aircraft.
