Oh, and just to add to this, there may be a few shortcuts they can take, but that means they'll get to our current level with 50 years of trying instead of the 80 it's taken us, and they're only on maybe year 20 of that process so they're still 30 years behind, and it's easily apparent when comparing their current stealth aircraft to ours - they've got most of the F-35 tech data, they know why the shaping is so complex, and there's a reason they're not doing it that way - and bear in mind that F-35 is 20 year old manufacturing tech at this point while the J-35 still hasn't reached real production yet afaik.
