When will Block 3 available to international market?
If Korean can't deliver it fast, China will dominate that "5th gen for non US allies / partners" with J35A for sure.

There's a plan from the US to make sure PRC and its allies lean into this stuff very hard and then undercut it later after they have over-committed....with whats on hand already regarding signals analysis, AI and networking....and making sure no repeat story of "easy IP for reverse engineering" to PRC w.r.t the critical RnD databases and processes regarding this (air gapping and removal of PRC "researchers in US unis etc" now and going forward) from the relative 1980 - 2015 bonhomie period signalled by CCP.

There is no such thing as unassailable superweapon. The very reason after all the hue and cry about anti-carrier ballistics....China forks out considerable resource into its CBGs too.

KF-21 to "Achieve 1,000 Sorties"

With the achievement of 1,000 Sorties, it is meaningful that about half of the total 2,000 Sorties planned for System Development flight tests have been completed and the safety of the aircraft has been confirmed by achieving an accident-free flight record.
