It's not just insights
Patchwork literally has essays worth of material on various topics, which go down to a very high level of detail and analysis on the US/Chinese systems
So at a minimum, I would say he does this full time
But ... I know this guy only from a few very kind exchanges via Twitter but otherwise his post-history is clean? Where does he discuss his materials?
He was frequently posting here and a few reddits during the "pelosi taiwan crisis" era . He may have ask to have his history cleaned here too.
They were in his Twitter history before it was deleted, but he did link to 1 or 2 on his posts on this forum
His posts are still here, just can't search for his username because his account is deleted.
Another post, he is the deleted account.
Even if each individual content by itself might not be classified there is no way to find and compile all that information and how it relates to each other working in the OSINT sphere. There is no doubt he is an Department of Defense analyst but his posts will be read by Chinese intelligence so we don't know how that affect what he post or if misinformation is sprinkled in.

General
I assume this is the from eight years ago, excerpts of which have been re-printed by . The article itself is of suspect quality, given what we know.
The reporter either was deliberately misleading readers or he memory was faulty. I highly doubt the interviewee had said Y-20 was equipped with WS-10, which cannot possible be true, not to mention the Y-20 was still under development back in 2014. Assuming the interview did take place, what I think was happening was that the reporter got the variants confused. There might have been several models of WS-10 variants on display, along with perhaps a model of WS-20, and the reporter mis-attributed what's said about one variant to another. I think it's quite possible the 14000kgf variant has yet to enter production at the time of the interview.
