The preliminary search for a replacement for the Republic of China Air Force‘s F-5s and F-104s began with the XF-6 indigenous fighter project, later renamed Ying Yang, in the late 1970s. After the US established formal relations with the People’s Republic of China and ended the Mutual Defense Treaty with Republic of China, President Chiang Ching-Kuo decided to expand the indigenous defense industry and on August 28, 1980, ordered AIDC to design an indigenous interceptor. Originally, the ROCAF listed the priority of the XF-6 behind the XA-3 Lei Ming attack aircraft, due to the presumed high risks of the XF-6 project.[3]
The signing of the 1982 US-PRC Joint Communiqué limited arms sales to the Republic of China. The United States refused to sell the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon and the Northrop F-20 Tigershark (which had been developed largely to meet Taiwanese needs for a follow-on to its F-5s[4]) therefore ensuring the continuation of the indigenous fighter project. Although US President Ronald Reagan reluctantly accepted his advisers’ suggestion of building relations with the People’s Republic of China to counter the USSR, Reagan decided to balance the 1982 US-PRC Communiqué with the « Six Assurances » to Taiwan. This opened the door for US technology transfer and assistance to Taiwan’s defense industry, including the IDF project.[5]

Outre le F-CK-1 deux avions ont été développés en collaboration avec General Dynamics dont le F-16 a connu 4500 exemplaires produits à la date d’avril 2012 (General Dynamics est aujourd’hui dans le groupe Lockheed-Martin : www.lockheedmartin.com/us/products/f16.html )

La Turquie a également fabriqué sous licence plus de 300 F-16 notamment pour elle et pour l’Egypte ( voir http://lf5422.wordpress.com/?s=F-16+Turquie )
En Chine populaire, le J-10 a sans doute bénéficié de quelques conseils de IAI qui avait développé le « Lavi »
