Isn't J-16 a derivated SU-30... I think the real story is that the F-15 frame, which continues to be developed even after 45 years, still maintains its ability to compete with rivalary countries' systems developed as its counterpart. Eagle and Flanker's struggle for nearly half a century is one of the greatest events in aviation history. New variants are still being developed and produced in both schools. Of course, J-16 also stands in a corner of this story as a wonderfully agile jet carrying SU genes.

Considering they are still operating B-52 which is 1950s plane. I think F-15 will be around for decades to come.
