Ukrainian War Developments

But isn't that great news? (As long as they don't collapse ofc).

I am sure you are aware to what extend Russia has been interfering in China's economic/BRI/integration/cooperation projects in Central Asia. That would be huge thorn removed from China

I should note though that we don't want a destroyed or destabilised Russia. China should push for diplomacy when it sees that Russia is at danger of collapse

Why did I assume you were a Russophile?

Modern radars of AESA architecture require very large number of ICs for signal amplification, filtering, AC/DC conversion, digital processing. Then there's precision guided munition, cruise missiles, anti-air missiles, etc with similar requirements. I've seen Russian AESA radar designs with American made Altera/Xilinx FPGA chips and Texas Instrument chips among others. This is the sort of technology that not even China is capable of replacing at the moment, at least not on the state-of-the-art level.

ADCs are not difficult technology. Hardware DSP is not either. Remember that civilian mobile phone towers operate in a much more complex, noisy and low power environment than radar... Yet Huawei and ZTE dominate this sector and continue to operate.

I am not an expert on specifically radar but the hard part of radar is the RF element I believe, not the backend electronics.

Why would you assume that. I only care about China's national interests

Seriously why are shills here already predicting Russia's downfall while in reality, the Ukrainians are getting rekt. You literally fell for their Twitter and reddit brigades reporting their victories that are conspicuously getting ever closer to their largest cities.
This literally reminds me of how the Afghan government can claimed victories after victory vs the Taliban before they literally crammed themselves into the next best landing gear of C-17 to escape the country.

There is a key difference between this and Jai Hind/Afghan government stuff though. Although there are some very outlandish claims (Ghost of Kviv for instance), there are also photographic and video evidence of heavy Russian equipment losses, casualties, and captured soldiers.

Seems Mariupol will be the first major city to fall. Followed by Kharkiv. These are the second biggest port city and the second biggest city in Ukraine. Ukraine will go broke without these.

Lukaschenko gets hung, Putin gets a dagger in the back!

I wonder who would fill the void in the case of political instability. The minority majority republics could seek independence. Also, Russia has the biggest nuclear stockpile. Who will safeguard it?

All the Anglos fantasising about regime change in Russia. This isn't the 80s world where American democracy is the shining example for all of the world. America has been taking L's both home and abroad for the last 20 years. American values are failing.

If Russia changes regime, the most likely outcome is a pro Beijing communist party trying to emulate the Chinese model.

If you haven’t noticed, many of Drumpf’s Anglos support Putin!

Not much seems to have changed. I don’t understand why Russia has left 3 big pockets between its fronts. If it took them all they could close on Kiev from every side.
