Stealth is just a tool. It can be defeated. It doesn't matter who has superior weapons. The question is if those weapons can be combined with the implementation of specific tactics to gain some kind of strategic goal.
This has a much longer range than America’s new F-35 fighter and will be a serious threat to American warships in the Pacific."
In the 21st century, serious threats to warships abound. However, when it comes to China, the real question for the US is how well the US can keep China contained, curtailing China's projection of power towards Taiwan, Japan, and other parts of the region. Superior weapons can help, but distance and logistics are still huge factors, which can work to China's advantage sometimes, and against it other times.
In other words, the issue is a lot more complex than who has the "best" stealth fighter.
