I could see China buy some VDV vehicle equipment for evaluation some time ago. But right now China has better equipment which was shown in the parade.
The Russians do have extensive historical experience with developing paratroopers since before WW2. And they have the largest paratrooper forces in the world.
But honestly the experience in Ukraine showed it is too dangerous to do paradrops. It is much better to insert troops fully kitted and ready to go with low altitude penetrating heliborne assaults.
If a landing strip can be captured then equipment can be delivered. In the case of Gostomel airport the first part worked but the second did not.
Tik tok was probably sold for so less because ByteDance expects the app to be broken going forward. The ownership structure and the operation structure with respect to rest of the world is completely broken for the app to function. They probably expect a soft exit of sorts.
UK soon will be 70m ppl, mainly increase from net migration
Great gift to UN-Iam only aware-from my now out-dated library -that China has only one airborne division the Wuhan Airborne(under the PLAAF) ?Is this correct or has it increased ala Special Forces type expansion?BTW the rest of the report where China buys a "dozen Sprut artillery","BMD type APC" seems like BS to me.

One other thing, during the cold war, soviets scientists and engineers still went out of their way to procure and use western products and machinery because of their evident superiority to Soviet built products; in the semiconductor space, will we also see nato countries using Chinese semiconductors in consumer goods because of their impending evident superiority?
just in case taliban leaders want to ape their Iranian neighbours and betray their revolution for a chance to live in the US and allow their kids and daughters especially to go to Harvard.

I saw this move, it’s 300 with Gerard butler where a middle eastern despot sends his hordes of slave soldiers up against a small army of freedom fighters.in case I have to spell it out, Netanyahu as xerxes, smericans and nato as xerxes slave soldiers and this stalwart army as the 300.
According to the Indians, the Transport Minister owns 18 farms used to make ethanol. India is increasing ethanol fuel blend to 20% at the end of 2025 and to 27% by 2030.
The funny thing is the Indian Gov save money by spending less on petroleum but none of it is passed down to consumers. Indians now get to enjoy using fuel on cars not rated for 20-27% ethanol while getting less fuel mileage.
