This time they secretly purchased 20 Ilyushin 78MK-90A aerial refuel tankers despite having their own YY-20 which fill the same exact role.Fun detail: the aircraft has low-vis PLAAF markings and a Russian flag painted on.>Sukhoi>MiG>KamovThese companies were all saved by the Chinese in the past.
>>65614273What benefits do they get from bailing Russians out? It seems counterproductive to save your export rival
>>65614283Both Russians and the hobo around the corner will do whatever you want for some pocket change.
>>65614273Doesn't Russia need this aircraft? Also why import what you already have?
>>65614283Laying the groundwork for demanding Outer Manchuria back.
>>65614273>These companies were all saved by the Chinese in the past.Sounds to me like they'r setting up the braindrain pipeline for post-SMO crash Russia
It would be fun if ukies bomb the factory making them
>>65614283Why would you want a future enemy to stop bleeding themselves to death?It is in literally everyone's interest except Ukraine and maybe Iran to drag this shit out until Russia either implodes or reverts to an agrarian peasant state unable to enforce its own borders. West gets to watch as monke grinds his entire nation to dust and pooh bear gets to have an increasingly easy annexation of Manchuria for every Mobik to get cubed. Especially given the majority of mobik cubes are made of people from east of the Urals.
>>65614273Shiny.
>>65614301Borders never change.
>>65614273siberia oil fields belong to chinese warlords.
>>65614283Stepping stone on the way to just outright buying Siberia and the Far East.
>>65614308They're bombing the places that directly contribute to missile production so it would make sense
>>65614283Sun Tzu says: One need not destroy one's enemy. One need only destroy his willingness to engage.
>>65614273>the Y-20 sucks bad enough that China is forced to buy more Russian aircraft
>>65614444Checked. Quads of truth.
>>65614409>Sun TzuAlso says, check out the tits on that Mongrian bitch!
>>65614308>Manufacturing site is in Ulyanovsk, Russia which is well within range of Ukrainian drones and missilesIt would be extremely funny
>>65614273Its only one and it hasn't even been seen anywhere near China yet.>>65614283They have a relatively limited refueling fleet currently. The YY-20 is probably better but its honestly meager potatoes (for now, they'll probably widen the gap over time). So, for now, while they build up their inventory, they can pick up a Russian airframe on the cheap that is basically just a variant of other heavy transports that they already operate (reduced training and maintenance needs). Besides, propping up Russian military might (for the time being) is in their best interest.>>65614298Russia doesn't have enough fighters/bombers to make use of more aerial refuelers not to mention they almost compltely operate in their own airspace (or immediately adjacent) and as such don't need to make use of them as much.>>65614308>>65614592They have better targets to go after.
>>65614444Quad godGlad this has been posted China also purchased an airborne brigade with training
>>65614444Have you faggot ever consider purchasing millitary equipment is one way to improve relationship with foreign country?>B-but china have y-20??And??, they can always use the russian aircraft as a backup in case they need more airplane for special millitary operation.
>>65614301>demanding Outer Manchuria backhehheh.. that would be interesting
>>65614283The longer Russia bleeds itself on Ukraine the weaker it'll be.
>>65614836If Germany bought KC-46 over A330 MRTT there’d be a ton of shitposting yeah
>>65614283because Russia has a lot of resources the chinks can get dirt cheap from them, plus if or when Russia does lose the absolute grip Putin has over Russia would crumble making it inevitable the regime he set up would collapse (it could be before of after he dies but either case it would fall apart) not only would a major state falling into civil war be a political head ache for china even if they have an excuse to steal shit, but the possibility that a faction that would actually install a true republic and institute western style reforms would also be a threat to the CCP since it would fuel questions for their citizens such as how come we don't do the same
>>65614862Reddit: the map
>>65614444>4 = death>4x4 = deathtruth
>>65614283>What benefits do they get from bailing Russians out?Outsourcing production when they don't have capacity and funding the Ukraine war which bleeds NATO nearly as much as it bleeds Russia
>>65614305russia is in full miilitary economy now so even if china says i wanna buy 300 su 35s 400 su 57 10.000 su 24s it wont matter the crash will happen for about 3 to 5 years (thats the average for post wartime economy)regardless of what is gonna happen thats why they arent burning their gold
>>65614911Good evening chinkfriend. How's the weather in Beijing today?
>>65614283Russia is slowly becoming what Europe is to America: an ally weakened by war that is growing dependent on military and economic trade with them in the fallout of said war.
>>65614961Oh sweet summer child, the Russian crash will be 1990s tier, except this time the west will just look on and tell them to pay reparations to maybe allow them back into their markets. Which Russia won't do, because all the smart ones already GTFO.And then Russia is looking at 10+ years of getting buttfucked economically by China postwar, and the Chinese will grab al the industrial know-how they can while turning the rest of Russia into their raw materiasl gulag.
>>65615090>except this time the west will just look onAre we sure about this? I'd hope so but I wouldn't say it's guarenteed, particurally when rusbots start spamming poorly doctored pictures of starving russian children.
>>65615090its best to stay at your current level of knowledge anon for a 91 alike crash to happen they gonna need to be isolated good luck with that
>>65615717But Russia was not isolated in the 90s, quite the opposite.
>>65615721u mad?
>>65615717>for a 91 alike crash to happen they gonna need to be isolated>good luck with thatThe difference is that the US, and most of Western Europe, didn't want Russia to fail in the 90s. This time we'll just sit back adn watch them turn into Norkia 2.0, with more krokodil, warlords and Chinese overlords.
>>65614273Well, it's not exactly glass-nose, but still I love more windows on cockpits, how does it look from the inside?
>>65614836You don't buy foreign aircraft if you can make your own my underage and seething friend.
>>65615090>except this time the west will just look on and tell them to pay reparationsTrump will shower them in US dollars. Hell he is doing it as we speak>b-but the EUWho cares
>>65615880>Trump willdo jack shit once he loses the midterms if he's lucky he will avoid impeachment and more charges once the Republicans rid themselves of the magatards ;^)
>>65615900Impeachment isn’t a threat to Trump unless the Republicans abandon him due to historically bad midterm results. Even if the Democrats take every senate seat that’s remotely in play, they’re going to end up with like 58 seats, leaving them 8 short of what’s needed to remove Trump if the house impeaches.
>>65615722gorbachev made the biggest mistake(for russia not his friends) and sold all of the infrastructure of russia to his buddies most of them by 93 became sanctioned so russia was basicly dead on water>>65615741its the same situation now but the difference is now russia has x28 more gold they gonna burn it all just to keep their currency leveled throughout the shift thats what everyone expect them to do
>>65614836Shut the fuck up, chang.
>>65614273>savingLmao, they're probably buying them for pennies on the dollar with full tech transfer included in the deal.There is no friendship lost between China and Russia, they both play their trade relationship as a zero sum game and China knows exactly how deperate Russias financial situation is.
>>65615722lol wut
>>65615951US and western Europe gave Russia billions in the 90s.Clinton hugely helped Yeltsin before he turned into a raging alcoholic.
>>65615947>they're probably buying them for pennies on the dollar with full tech transfer included in the deal.Obviously, they will take all the know-how Russia has left in the next 10 years.And all the pretty girls, too.Expect loads of 'Kazhak' porn with asian men banging 'white' girls in the next years.
>>65615945you're a stupid fucking fat mutt spamming faggot KYS
>>65614273>they secretly purchasedAnd we're not gong to be given any proof because... it's secret, right?
>>65614592That's a big target.
