There are much larger, systemic issues with Chinese manufacturing that goes beyond just building to specification. Systemic corruption is the number one killer of their high end manufacturing market. The easiest example I can give you is steel. High quality steel is hard to order from China, steel you do order will be improperly marked as hogh quality but in actuality will be lower. This is a foreign and domestic issue, and is the reason why thr Chinese rail lines are constantly under construction.

The Osprey is a dangerous aircraft and everyone knows it, while Chinese aircraft are dangerous while pretending to be safe.

There’s also the downgrades and quality control issues you get with buying Chinese.

I doubt that’s true, no one would place orders for a stealth fighter without the stealth technology.
