    China didn't invent flammable and explosive mixtures. They did however quickly perfect gunpowder since they used the fireworks way too many times for that age. The key was a slower burning type for the weapons, because a firework stuck inside as a propellant will blow the barrel out.

    This whole thing is strongly reminiscent of the rise of Imperial Japan in the late 19th to early 20th century. The world better be careful not to make the same mistake in assuming copying is all they can do. For instance, whenever Japan came out with a new aircraft the international intelligence community didn't even question it and immediately went to figure out what it was a "copy" of, stretching as far as they needed to. In another example, the U.S. Navy's Bureau of Ordnance insisted the specs of the infamous Type 95 torpedo were complete bogus. "They can't possibly have something like that because we don't!" was the general mindset; a trap that seems dangerously easy to fall into even today.

    Japan just didn't copy military designs in the 1920s and '30s, they went on to copy western technology and manufacturing processes after the war. Japan's advantage was a cheap and motivated labor force at the time. Japan eventually began to develop its own technologies and manufacturing processes. Today Japan faces the same problems of advanced western economies and is moving manufacturing to other nations to save on labor and transportation to remain competitive. IMO China is different because the CCP controls the economy in China and is ideologically driven. Similar to the US and possibly the UK (during the industrial revolution) China seeks to grow its political influence through its economic strenght. The problem is that the world has changed and the age of empires is at an end IMO.

    Off course. It’s China. There is a doctrine in China that says “師夷長技以制夷”, which translates to “learn from what’s foreign to beat what’s foreign”. This doctrine was first popularized during the Qing dynasty when imperial China was under pressure from the British Empire. Needless to prove that this idea still guides China’s technology development today.

There were three ways to end the conflict, siege and starvation, which would take a long ass time, and is probably risky. Amphibious assault (which was far bloodier, the Purple Crosses used today were made during WWII because they thought Operation: Downfall was gonna be bloody as hell). Or Nukes. We know what happened.

    Their strengths are their production capacity and cost of production. This was intentional strategy to make the world submit both economically and militarily through trade, investment, and flexing military power to expand. It has been largely successful. While technologically they may be a step or two behind in certain systems, they can produce vast numbers of them and this can raise the average technological level of their forces up to comparable levels or higher than those of many potential adversaries. They can also sustain a very large force while having enough production to modernize it all, not just a small portion of forces as is typical in many countries. For example, the J-10 fighter has already had over 400 aircraft produced, already replacing half of legacy J-7 that were copies of MiG-21 and which used to the backbone of the PLA Air Force. J-10 is a much more capable fighter, a medium weight fighter similar to European and Israeli delta wing designs. While J-10 is not "cutting edge" nor is it stealthy it is a relatively high capability fighter somewhere in between Gripen and Rafale. Upgrading their lower tier forces up to a much higher standard creates a much stronger force overall. The West has instead been focused on the next shiny new gadget but only produced them in modest numbers or even canceled some projects. The PLA lags behind such development but then implements them fully once they have serviceable copies and have become more adept at modifying them to suit their own needs. The United States and Russia both still use a large amount of equipment from the mid to late 20th century. The PLA is now at a comparable level to the USA during Desert Storm which was the culmination of decades of cold war military research and investments. During the 1990s there was a sudden draw down in forces and reduction in investments and production in both Russia and the United States as a so called "peace dividend" and some of this was due to treaty obligations on the part of the USA and economic troubles on the part of Russia. At the same time the economic might of the PRC was growing, funded by foreign trade and investments. The PLA was thus able to catch up to these two big world powers by copying their tech and using trade to fund their military production while their rivals slowed down. The shift to anti insurgency related tech after 9/11 was eagerly copied by the CCP for use both by the PLA and internal security to control and oppress their own population. They now still have some older platforms such as H-6 but then again, nearly half of the USA strategic bombers are ancient B-52s and Russia still uses mostly older bombers including many ancient Tu-95s and the PLA has more H-6 than the US B-52s and Russian Tu-95s combined. While they lack cutting edge stealth bombers, so does Russia and the USA only has 20 aging B-2s and is still waiting on B-21 production while B-1Bs are being retired. The supposed technological edge of the West is largely meaningless without production to leverage that advantage and implement it. There certainly are some areas where the West still maintains technological and in active in service unit numerical superiority but for how much longer? If this trend continues then the technological edge will get thinner and eventually the numerical advantage will shift to the PLA. The way to prevent this is to decouple economic ties with the PRC as much as possible and invest in other countries instead and modernize existing forces through increased production to bring total forces up to current best standard. There also should be increases in security and reduced diplomatic presence with consulates and legal barriers to investment in both directions to reduce industrial espionage and economic capture. Cut off their supply of foreign money and designs down to a trickle and put that elsewhere such as India or back into our own countries. This will have a large impact on future economic and military development trends.

Their stealth fighter is also based on Russian older designs, you don't put canards on stealth. Their tanks are based on T-72 designs, again, the same story. it's true that they are improving fast but IMO they are improving mostly so they could not be bullied anymore by the US, the one and only true evil empire on the planet today. Since their country is surrounded by US bases from all sides (Same as RUS btw) and you can almost see the American carriers from the tallest shangai buildings, it's no wonder they are building massive anti-ship missiles.

The latest tanks have evolved quite a bit away from Soviet designs. Unlike many other countries that are just T-72 knock offs, it is more complicated than that. They started with T-55 copies but used elements of several different Soviet designs for more recent tanks, including T-72 and others. The most modern tanks are a mix of Russian and Western design elements and are reasonably capable. The hulls tend to be similar to T-72 but the turrets are closer to Western designs such as Leo2 or Abrams. The PLA has over 1000 Type 99 series tanks and over 2500 Type 96 series tanks plus some Type 15 light tanks. They also have thousands of older main battle tanks in reserve that are closer to old Soviet designs. The PLA is not surrounded by the US, there are only some to the East in Korea, Japan, and US territory. The PLA has been focused on attacking the USA long before the US woke up and realized they are a threat. The PLA conducts daily attacks on the US, there are exchange server based attacks that just started for example. The PLA is not a victim of bullying - they are the bullies. The PRC has border disputes with all of their neighbors and has invaded several of them and then erased local culture and conducted genocide.

    Cheating is only wrong if copying the answers doesn't help you understand the source material better. The ultimate point of education is to learn, after all. When I was in high school, we all had graphing calculators, but it was forbidden to use any programs on them to solve problems for math tests. I had written a program that could apply all the trigonometry formulas we'd learned in class, and give me the missing angles for triangles. I just couldn't remember the formulas to save my life, but I could remember them just long enough to write code. Before each test, I deleted the program, showed my teacher my calculator was clear...and then restored the program from a spare calculator in my backpack before using it to answer test questions. I only got half credit on trigonometry problems because I didn't show my work, but that was better than nothing, and since I wrote the program myself I obviously learned the source material at least once. Cheating? Yes. Wrong? No.

Serbia seems to have bought the advanced SAM FK3 100milions per battery with 3 launchers each and a radar which seems too be some type of copy of the Patriots radars ,the missiles are based on the S300 PMU1 but only based they developed them for 20years guided in two ways and the Chinese military are buying more and more of them but their version has a 170km range and 27km height .

    The biggest flaw in reverse engineering is that the reverse engineered product has not gone through to development cycle which include too much of research and development . For example in a screw every thread and metallurgy researched and designed specifically considering the final product. But this is missing in Reverse Engineered product thus when the final product encounters any problem then manufacturer is totally blank about why and how? For example engine thrust, if engine is expected to produce certain amount of thrust while it isn’t then manufacturer don’t know why it is so and how to fix. In case of Kaveri engine we have developed the engine but the metallurgy used in core and after burner we don’t know how to obtain that metal? Another example: if any Chinese reverse engineered fighter plane crashes then they can’t do root cause of crash and can’t fix that problem once in forever. And this is the biggest drawback of reverse engineering.

    For China, copying is an "art." It is culture... It is unfair for us though....

    Absolutely, we’ve seen an UAV example; CH-4B (CASC Rainbow) station during Iraqi Army Aviation counter - terror ops and its just a replica of US predator, lesser hours airborne? Maybe Shorter range? Definitely, still effective for bad guys hunting though and the Chinese used Iraq experience to modify, tweak and upgrade it for similar West-Asian operations theater.

    In India there is a saying: "Nakal ke liye bhi akal chaiye" meaning you need to have some knowledge even if you are copying something. The west feels that china copies everything (they do copy a lot) but china even evolves their stuff, and the west has reached their saturation limit.
