Point of the thread a Official PLA video used footage of a non PLA aircraft from a outside source. IE context.
Given the habit of Chinese weapon makers and the PLA of using stock footage from western movies like Top Gun for their promotional videos by saying I wouldn't be surprised to see a DF21D video using cuts from Transformers 2. Another member agreed with me. Another brought up the Taiwanese transformer video trying to draw a link. I pointed out that at least they were original about it. Even if it didn't succeed.
Yes but you are making a big deal out nothing. So what if the PLA uses "stock footage from western movies" for their videos. People make it seem like these PLA are the same low tech non creative robots who can't seem to think on their own all because they are communism. If a simple video is making one to lose sleep over, than I hope the PLA continue to post these videos just to rile up some sleepless China hating trolls for our entertainment.
