The planes, tentatively called J-36 and J-50, reportedly incorporate highly advanced technology and avionics. Some military analysts say China’s air force may already be capable of contesting air superiority in the region. But the People’s Liberation Army has been pressing ahead with innovations since the rivalry could shift with any introduction of new aircraft by the US. Washington has yet to reveal details about its coming sixth-generation fighter, the F-47, at a time when tensions between Beijing and Washington over Taiwan are running high.
