i wonder if its paint washes off when it rains.

Slightly longer than the Raptor... It has a double length weapons bay and from the drawings I've seen it looks like it can fit two AMRAAM lengths worth of ammo in them.

Its performance is unknown right now, how truly stealth it is, and if it can supercruise like the Raptor... It follows in line with the 20 year rule with China though. The Raptor project started about 20 years ago in the US.

I wonder how much tech was from US-Israel partnerships that Israel backdoors to China...

Look at the J-10 and the Lavi...
