interesting site, that looks like a harrier GR.3, XZ965, on there as well, so where would the chinese get that from?

Ray Hanna told me he traded the OFMC la-9 for a Harrier. So that may be it…

Perhaps you mean a U-2? The Nationalist Chinese flew some....but they certainly didn't have any SR-71s.

And if the USAF had lost a Blackbird over China, I think it would have been in the news! :D
