This seems to be a joke. China has 70% of the world global research share on advanced aircraft engines Seriously? Maybe in writing papers . But that does not translate to actual product. China has 50% of electronic warfare and 45% of radar? In what planet? Any test to see if a lot of what is going on in other countries is not published?

I'm not sure it's a joke. A lot of data supports that, maybe not all of it is accurate but you see the trend.

It's probably not completely accurate. But dismissing it entirely seems foolish. The change is dramatic and in a very short time.
