Wouldn't it be safer to procure equipment from a country with which we have a defense pact? We pay a premium for US equipment for a reason. The Chinese are still relatively new to the aircraft manufacturing game, and even have to procure engines from Russia. The Chinese-made bullpups are rather . . . interesting. However, I wouldn't want to strain our logistical chain with unfamiliar equipment.

Current Millitary Modernization and Strategic Debate "Shishi shang, zhenglun youyu mei yi heyong shuyu Mao minzu zhangzheng zai xiandaide zhangzheng ru bing bushi wanquande jijing. Dang de shihou yixie iaoniande junrende dailing pinfande xuancheng nage jiashi zhansheng ouran mingtian, Zhongguo budongde zai sheng xuruode mian he ruci mei yi PLA bixu zuo de shi zu bei dazhang minzu zhangzheng yonghu yuanzhu shuyu kuai minbing he youyiduiyuan lilang"1...... (declassified portion) "As a matter of fact, debate over the applicability of Mao's people's warfare in modern war has not been completely silenced. While some senior military leaders continually claimed that war happen tommorrow,China would still be on the weak side and thus the PLA should be prepared to fight a people's war with the assistance of the mass militia and guerilla forces, etc."1-CHINESE MILITARY THEORY, Chen -Ya Tien (reference)

Its bad news especially if the Chinese will be able to build more than 10 of those. That ship looks big, what is the Chinese designation?
