the j-10 doesnt carry standoff missiles. mostly because it doesnt need to. the PLAAf has flanker variants, jh-7A and H-6 in large numbers for that purpose.
however, it shouldn't be too difficult in the grand scheme of things to integrate one, like the various KH-55 variants/domestic...
I would not put china's electronics behind france.
considering that fact that that us military is considering MAD in the electromagnetic space in any conflict with china, in which they just deploy wide band jamming and give up any attempts at EW dominance, should tell you a lot about what the...
most Ukrainian infrastructure was left over from the soviet union, during which time they had a higher GDP per capita than russia itself, and ukraine has been cannibalizing it since independence. they gutted their military, their industry, ship yards, everything.
i am not upset, i am merely saying what i see and what i expect.
that if Pakistan betrays china, then china will keep its tech to itself. pure and simply.
also that i myself do not expect Pakistan to betray china.
and i said absolutely nothing different.
what i said was, IF Pakistan went off the deep end and decided to betray china by allowing the americans a deep look into domestic use chinese tech.
with such a betrayal , china would then respond by never allowing pakistan access to such tech again...
no, china isnt going to provide india with military anything (unless they want to buy off taobao). don't put words in my mouth, i suggested nothing of the sort.
china will simply no longer provide pakistan with the best it could come up with, never mind the near-zero profit PLA prices that...
if it were up to you,
this is how you will guarantee that pakistan will never again be able to acquire any top of the line chinese-domestic use versions of its combat systems ever again, at best receive watered down export-only monkey models and probably not of the lastest design either. and...
WS-10C is the variant said to be in the j-20.
same physical size, maybe slightly different plumbing, higher thrust, possibly at the expense of shorter life.
its also early days.
china still needs to plan out how to evade the sanctions and setup various entities and institutions and then switch the trade from dollars to yuan/roubles.
they cant do this overnight, and they aren't going to just drop the dollar for russia overnight either.
your larger point is correct. russia is not going to choose india over china, not while china is far richer, has more influence, more technology, and is not antagonistic towards russia. Especially at this point with tough western sanctions, the only real relief is china. luckily for them...
could you provide source?
the only thing i found for that statement was by Sri Lanka
"India is our brother,China is our friend. Our link with India is historical and geographical. Both are our friends. We don’t see the world divided between India and China,” he said. Modi wrapped up his Sri...
lol what world do you live in? because its clearly not the same one as the rest of us.
indians will literally make up lies and blame everything under the sun except themselves for their own failures.
the sino-soviet split formally happened in 1960 with the soviets withdrawing all...
its is fairly cheap. but then its just salt, pink salt isn't some essential item. as such, it is price sensitive, you raise the price, then less people will buy it. which might mean overall less money even if each individual lb is sold for more.
why are you all even arguing about this.
the WS-10 CAN be 100% made in china to the same quality it is now.
However its almost certainly not 100% made in china because some non-critical things are imported due to price.
this isn't even rare. the f-35 literally has chinese screws and...
your military command was literally too scared to rescue your own troops that was freezing to death in rivers and left them to die.
well either way, pakistani or chinese, both can slap india around when it comes down to it.
false? indians continue to make up lies about china "backstabbing" indian in 62, yet is completely ignorant of the fact that indians not only attacked chinese posts in disputed areas, but also went into land that is undisputed. that is, land that the indian government officially considers...
india had its chance to settle for literally decades and decades. it isnt that china doesn't want to settle, its india that doesn't want to. and unfortunately india's continued provocations are hardening chinese stances too.
and at this point it may be too late, china has zero trust in india...
taking taiwan is worth way more to china than the disputed territories with india.
also taiwan is not in an alliance with the us. there is the obligation of providing weapons sales but not actually fighting on their behalf.
