Sukhoi is not satisfied: according to the results of a simulated air battle, the Chinese J-11B aircraft surpassed the Su-35 (Huanqiu, China)

Approaching the fourth generation of fighters
After four years of deliberation, China and Russia signed an agreement in 4 to build a factory in China to produce 1996 of Russia's most advanced Su-200SK air superiority aircraft. The Shenyang aircraft factory, which had previously produced J-27 aircraft, was converted for this purpose. The factory was equipped with advanced Western and Chinese equipment, which greatly improved the production technology and thus laid a solid foundation for further improvement of the aircraft themselves.
J-11B
In 1999, on the basis of the Su-27, the fighter was first created, which 70% consisted of parts made in China. It was renamed J-11. All parts except the engine were made in China, and even some components were improved. The improved model is called J-11A. In the 90s in China and in the world there was a leap in aircraft manufacturing, in aircraft construction, in particular, aircraft began to supply more and more electronics. And the J-11 / Su-35 aircraft very quickly became obsolete due to the lack of electronics, even compared to the updated J-8 aircraft. By 2003, 95 aircraft were produced, the remaining 105 were abandoned by China, citing the fact that the aircraft did not meet the technical requirements of the country, which the Russian side was extremely suspicious of.
Shenyansk aviation Chinese Corporation has created a copy of the Russian carrier-based Su-33 fighter. The model is called J-15 (Jian-15), Interfax reports with reference to the May issue of the authoritative military publication Kanwa Asian Defense, which is published in Canada and Hong Kong.
The prototype T10K of Soviet times, which went to China from Ukraine, was taken as the basis for the Chinese fighter. Earlier, Chinese engineers could not solve the problem of the folding wing of carrier-based fighters, but now this problem has been solved.
It remains unclear whether the new aircraft made the first test flight. After the factory tests, the fighter will be sent to the Air Force center in Yangljan, since the Chinese Navy does not have its own test center for naval aviation.
China has created a "pirated" copy of the Su-33 fighter, having guessed the secret Russian technology
In fact, in these few years, Chinese fighters have absorbed all the best that was in the Su-27. Having stuffed the Su-27 with various techniques and improved its aerodynamic characteristics, in 2000, the first secret launch of the new multi-purpose aircraft J-11B was made, which completely turned to Western standards.
Given that the development of this fighter is not yet fully declassified, it is not surprising that such a rapid leap in Chinese aircraft manufacturing has taken Russia and the United States by surprise. When Russia has offered to buy improvements to the Su-27 from China in recent years, it has often received no response because China already possessed these technologies. Late last year, Russia was forced to admit that China had independently improved the Su-27 by creating the J-11B, in the same statement the Russian side claims that the design of the new aircraft has not yet been fully completed, while China is in the process of producing a second batch of 17 aircraft. This suggests that Russia does not have control of the situation, which is a serious miscalculation on their part.
Using composite materials, it was possible to reduce the weight of the aircraft on the 700 kilogram, which made it possible to put a more powerful Taihan engine on the J-11B. In addition, the Chinese aircraft has the most modern electronic devices, thus overtaking the Su-27 by more than 20 years.
