Cheap drones would a very good way to soak up any stinger fire.

it is not some hidden thing. for over a year permanent equipment was moved there. Putin wanted public attention to raise prices of commodities. he met publicly with tactical corporation CEO. its very rare case during pandemic meet a person lower in corporate structure and he remind him of Erdogan. and that person boasted earlier of about $4b revenues at than exchange rate. $4B revenue your looking at minimum 20,000 PGMs and cruise missiles per year.
Yeah. I will add that so far I did not even see any evidence of Russian paratrooper drops with parachute.
It seems to all have been done with helicopter troop inserts.
I am also still waiting for photos of the wrecks of those mythical Il-76s the Ukrainians claim to have shot down. There is reliable information the Russians tried to land hardware with the Il-76 at Gostomel Airport but no evidence any were shot down.
There is no way the Russians would have the time to train drone operators with Chinese military drone equipment. I agree.
The talk about buying PGM is also bunk. AFAIK the Chinese and Russian avionics for weapon systems are not even compatible.
Some Chinese aircraft can use Russian weapons but the converse is not true. Retrofitting support for foreign weapons into an aircraft is not trivial. There is no software support for the Chinese weapons in Russian fighters and from what I know even the physical layer interface of both aircraft is not the same.
Well China imported food from the West because they needed to get something from the West in return for all the crap they produce for them. Since high technology imports are being restricted things like food were the only thing they had left. Otherwise when Uncle Sam defaults on its debt by "confiscating" Chinese held US treasuries and dollar reserves, or assets abroad, like they did with Russia, Venezuela, etc, you will end up as a sucker who worked for free for Uncle Sam.
Russia has asked China for military assistance in Ukraine, including drones, as it , a senior US official told CNN.
They should buy this from CETC, they already sanctioned by the U.S.
Precisely.
That piece of analysis is so awful and laughable (allow me to repeat your words since I couldn't find better ones). It felt like part of US/West propaganda. Indeed, with die has been cast with regards to the relationship with Russia and the fall of Ukraine is only a matter of time, the US has started to shift its attention to China, because it knows that China is the real enemy and how long the Russia can sustain largely depends on how far China would go in support of Russia. To start, its weapon is, again, disinformation and threat of sanction.
Earlier, some disinformation has been planted that China had asked Russia to postpone the military operation after the Beijing Winter Olympics, Now it is that Russia had asked Chinese military support. Step-by-step, it is trying to implicate China and potentially leverage the out-of-control rage against Russia in the West. We're going to see more of these stupid, low-class propaganda and disinformation campaign against China (and Russia obviously). It doesn't matter though, much of the western populace are deeply brainwashed and much of the opposing or even dissent views are either censored or deplatformed.
I think air strikes can be replaced by Zala recon / lazing drones + Krasnopol laser guided artillery rounds for smaller targets and Kh-101 air launched cruise missiles carried on Tu-95MS and Tu-160 bombers for larger targets. This mean no pilot will ever lose their lives.
They aren't getting their reserves back. If there is sonething the west loves more than other peoples resources, it is other peoples money.
