China's stealth fighter "based on US technology"

Raise your hand if you saw this coming?

Now, the Admiral who was Croatia's chief of staff during the Kosovo War has said he believes that China formulated the technology for its J-20 jet from an American F-117 Nighthawk stealth fighter that was shot down over Serbia in March 1999. 

It would seem that China had been buying up parts of the downed plane to discover how the plane did what it did.  I guess gleaning information off of the web was too complicated.
