Evolved FC-31 makes first flight

[MigBuster 2,884]

The War Zone reported on the existence of a second rendition of China’s Shenyang FC-31 Gyrfalcon stealth fighter when pictures of the design under construction surfaced during the Zhuhai Air Show in early November. Now that aircraft—which features substantial upgrades in its low observable shaping and manufacturing quality—has flown for the first time, as evidenced by the photos and video below.

I guess the question is how much of this plane was hacked out of classified US hard drives.

Those exhaust tail pieces don't look that stealthy.
