"The J-10 looks something like the American F-16, and weighs about the same (19 tons"

"The JF-17 design is based on a cancelled Russian project, the MiG-33"

The Chinese are building a F-22 knockoff, the J-xx, and the Russians are expected to fly their new design, the Sukhoi SU-50 Pak FA next year as well. (The Russian version of the F-22)

Unfortunately (and to my great puzzlement), Israel has illegally transferred much of our technology to the Chinese as well.
