j-11 is a copy of su-27(same family su 30s belong to)If the pic posted in the previous post by Redragon of the J-11 is accurate; then I can say that its airframe is a direct 100% copy of the Sukhoi-30.
Every country has its spies. China is no exception.Jesus Christ........Can the Chinese ever do anything original ??

I just read a post in the eetimes.com where one poster listed 6 or 7 existing cases of Chinese engineers in the US being busted for stealing technology secrets.
China must have the world's biggest industrial espionage department.
J11 is a licensed built su 27, but CHina is unsatisfied with avionics in su27 becuase of soviet's outdataed product when contract was signed.Jesus Christ ,Can the Chinese ever do anything original ??

And the airframe is a rip of the Sukhoi, but it's not that hard when China has access to the blueprints when it purchased a licensed production.
Okay if it is a licensed Su - 27, then call it Su-27CH or something dont give it a new name like J-11 and make it look like something you guys designed your self.J11 is a licensed built su 27, but CHina is unsatisfied with avionics in su27 becuase of soviet's outdataed product when contract was signed.
seriously koji this comment isAvionics are completely replaced, radar, airframe modifications are made. It's as similar to the original Su-27 as the Super Hornet is to the original, meaning..nothing.

Airframe is modified, and there are plans to use the indigenous WS-10a when it's operational. So, all three of your requirements are satisfied.The 3 main and definitive components of a fighter aircraft are:
1) Airframe
2) Engine
3) Radar
Replacing the analog gauges with some modern LCD panel and some modern avionics certainly helps the pilot with ease of use but is hardly a defining feature. I certainly cant discern any air-frame modifications from the pics.....it look like a 100% copy.
In the J-11, only the Radar is Chinese made. Everything else is a copy, and knowing the Chinese - I am sure even their radar is a reverse-engineering job.
What modifications are done? Care to enlighten usAirframe is modified, and there are plans to use the indigenous WS-10a when it's operational. So, all three of your requirements are satisfied.

Till the engine gets operational nothing can be said. Which radar does this plane uses?
