China does not have to match the US ... as long as they can achieve self sufficiency for aero engines across all types of aircraft, then matching the US is not necessary. But yes, the gap is shrinking fast for sure ...An expert from the Chinese engine industry stated that in 2010 that China was 30 years behind the US in engine technology. They expect to eliminate the gap by 2040.
