I´m in doubt if "copying" concept is correct. "Improvemetn" seems to be a more appropriate word. BF-262 (first combat jet), de Havilland Comet (first certified airliner), 757 / 767 (first glass cockpit airliners), they all broke borders. But improvements were necessary. Santos Dumont was the first man to build and fly something heavier than the air. Unnecessary to describe the meaning of this fact, but since then, "improvement" was always the word.

ok I'm not a plane expert but you cant really say people are copying i mean if it's a design that works then everyone will use it and try to improve it

How did the US copy Russian designs? Did we use a DeLorean to travel forward in time to copy the design that the Russians had copied from the Americans?

You're argument would be intriguing if not for the trend that has been set in russia for copying US aircraft. Start with the TU-4 (reverse engineered from 2 B-29s that made emergency landings in WWII) and go forward from there.

You may wish to inform yourself on the "Stab-in-the-back legend". I think you will find yourself in very pleasant company.

Plane was a good design, but flawed with saboteurs and fifth columnists from the inside,in management, in Congress(Democrats) and a public that was pro communist. This is why we lost Vietnam War. If we had won, Vietnam would be very modern and gleaming like Tokyo or Seoul today. Shame on the American People.
