I don't think "We totes captured an alien spaceship and have super duper advanced fighters now, so don't even try to resist us" is really going to work on China. Far more likely that this is aimed at the general US populace, to convince them of one thing or another, possibly even an attempt at trying to look "transparent" by "revealing the truth about UFOs."

Their "wunderwaffen" in Ukraine turned out to be anything but, so they are probably desperate to reclaim their prestige.

Its just a continued effort to obfuscate modern tech. They discontinued the program then got a rich rube (Tom DeLonge) to foot the bill.
