Default DIA on China's new fighter

Long-range AAM has done a not exactly stellar prestation, and all show
was done by Sidewinders, Atolls, and, indeed, guns...


Sparrow did poorly on reliability and training grounds, but has improved
since; certainly BVRAAMs remain a key armament for modern fighters.
