Does anyone know what radar is j20 using every source keeps saying it's a version of KLJ-7 which I don't believe
Top-end airborne fighter radars and their specs (even names) are probably among one of the best-kept secrets in the PLA.
Have Chinese farming drones shown up in the Ukraine war? I know both sides use DJI drones and are trying out Unitree robo dogs, however I havent heard of any other drones in use other than the DJI mavic 3.
I think earlier in the war when drones were starting to become a thing and major weapon, larger DJI drones were used to carry heavier munitions whilst also using smaller DJI drones in conjunction. But nowadays, I haven't really seen any attacks with any large DJI drones like their agricultural drones, and everything appears to be mainly FPVs and fiber-optics, domestically produced.
The grenade dropping drones early in the war were repurposed agricultural drones that were used to spray pesticide.
Ministry of commerce and CMC issued export regulation on anything used for drones since 2024, especially this part
二、对于未列入出口管制清单或者未实施临时管制的所有无人驾驶航空飞行器，出口经营者明知或者应当知道出口将用于大规模杀伤性武器扩散、恐怖主义活动或者军事目的的，不得出口。违反规定的，按照《中华人民共和国出口管制法》第三十四条处罚。
Any drone which is not in control list, if can be used for military purpose or the exporter knows or should have known, should NOT be exported and is punishable for exportation.
This basically banned any export for possible military usage by any entity without explicit state approval.
This is true but there are many DJI mavic drones still on both sides whether donated or smuggled, meaning drones are still getting there. My confusion stems from why arent the bigger more expensive better drones smugged rather than just mavics and unitree robo dogs
When was the rear turret of the H-6 removed?
A lot is brought from other countries and simply shipped to Russia or Ukraine.
