a company from china is attempting to finish and clone the unfinished airframe if it hasn't been blown up yet.

Do you have any more info on that?

That just says there were negotiations with Chinese, nothing concrete. And if the second airframe is still there, it's probably destroyed too.

I think it is a pretty safe bet that it was still there and is destroyed too.

You don't usually fly aircraft until they are at least complete, especially ones this large.
