The American-made MiG-28 jet fighter is actually just a joke that became reality; the Mikoyan Design Bureau that originally developed it has long since rolled over in its grave.
The same factory also produced the American-made Jian-8. To make money, the American Federation's aviation arms manufacturers are completely shameless.
Protesting is useless, the patent has long expired, and anyone can freely use it; you can't win a lawsuit.
The main customers for these high-quality counterfeit Li ghosts are powerful private military contractors; whether it's the original factory's model or not isn't important, as long as it can fly, fight, and comes with reliable quality and an affordable price, then it's settled.
Dragging the real Li Kuis out of the military museum might not even beat these copies.
But sovereign nations look down on these minor plays with big toys; their national treasure artifacts can only be crystal jets.
