I have read that license built Su-27s made in China are of better quality than Russian ones.

I read something similar in the Taiwanese press, but I also read they have problems with handling the engines. My general impression is that the "simple" parts they can do quite well (just like cheap Chinese toys) compared to the Russians, who seem to take the philosophy that if a crude technique is adequate for an area, that's precisely the technique to be applied, but they still have problems with the complex.
