Russians are angry because Ukraine can supposedly buy Chinese drone interceptors. The Chinese developed dozens various models for around $1k each which is a decent price.

https://x.com/YuriPodolyaka/status/2068756033187840223

Russia should buy hundreds of thousands of them too, whats the problem xD

cucktin is a worthless retard who put a chastity cage on the russian military. there have been like eight massive ukrainian drone waves since the last russian missile wave. its pathetic. imagine being this impotent to fight against your smaller neighbor.

By that same logic China selling smart phones to Ukraine means they are selling advanced military chips to them lol. Or if they sell them golf carts they are selling them mobile infantry vehicles. Lol

Because that's a lot more than the value of one russian soldier. It makes economic sense to use russian bodies to stop the drones instead.

Early 2022:

RUB: 74-76 RUB per USD (pre-invasion)
RON: 4.3-4.7 RON per USD.

Mid-2026 (around June):

RUB: 73-74 RUB per USD
RON: 4.55-4.57 RON per USD

It means that Russian currency strenghtened to dollar despite 4 years of war, the biggest sanctions in modern history etc, while Romanian currency slightly weakened despite being artificially pumped by eurozone, being a part of dollar zone (NATO), despite Romania taking part in no war etc.

Romanias key metrics lag Russias in 2025-2026:

Public debt: Romania 62% of GDP (rising); Russia 17% (low & stable).

Unemployment: Romania 6.5%; Russia 2.2% (near record low).

GDP growth: Romania 0.7% (2025), near 0% (2026); Russia stronger overall despite slowdown.

Romania shows weaker fiscal health, higher joblessness, and slower growth

I have no freaking idea if this X tweet is true. Just posted it for fun. It is impossible to check such things. But the prices are beliavable. Production cost of these interceptors in China oscilates between 150-400 dollar (i know from CEO of one of these companies) so the $1k market price is possible.
>>
>>537575910
Oh we're not fine I wasn't implying that
Its just that I could never imagine that Exchange rate and russian wages
Listen we're a fucking minor country, irrelevant in the great scheme of things
It just boggles my mind how russia can be such a so and so country
On the bright side if we'd do what we're supposed to do we'd make Poland look like a backwater in 5 years

Normally at $300 production cost, China would likely sell for 5-12x markup to cover R&D, integration, training, margins, and export logistics. Probable export market price for Western markets is $1,500-$4,000 or higher per unit.

For bulk military deals to allies, it could dip toward $1,000, retail/higher-spec versions higher. China prices aggressively for volume and influence.

Thats why if Ukraine wanted to obtain Chinese interceptors for $1k per unit, it would demand political decision in China imo and mass orders. Thats why it is hard for me to believe that Ukraine could get ready-to-use units from China for such a good price. More like $2k-$3k per unit, thats more believable.

Poland and Romania are copy&paste countries based on exactly the same neocolonial models, plugged into the same Western system. Poland might seem more "developed" to some but i cant really tell because i never been to Romania. My friend used to visit most of Balkans and he claims all of them are shitholes but he also used to say that Greece is horrible shithole so maybe he is biased. Hard to tell. I generally avoid visiting countries where brown people are majority. I am even wary of super-isolated and secured top tier tourist resorts in brown countries. My usual car trip destinations are Poland, Germany, Czechia-Slovakia and out of all brown countries i been only to Israel and the US. Israel - because of my familys roots and the US - because of family and career.

Heh

>>537572496
They probably won't sell it this point.
Drones are only destroying oil and gas terminals that trade with the west and India, but not the ones that are oriented to China, which are all out of range. With the alternative removed, chinks can demand lower prices.

>out of all brown countries i been only to Israel and the US.

More than once, of course. I been to few other brown places out of tourist reasons but only once per place.
>>
>>537577167
But we're not
Poland has been on a steady path for 36 years. Romania clarified what it wanted in 2004.
We had 15 lost years of knocking down everything that wasnt working and only then we started building.
Whilst poland has achieved its potential (integration in production and logistical chains) Romania achieved this much later.
Our shtick is super efficiency with low head count and an energy efficiency2x per € earned than any euro country.
Poland made it because of proximity to Germany and Western Europe and we made it despite the isolation from the Western markets.

>>
>>537578667
Hand on my heart, i wil tell you that i am still staying in Poland, because theres no war here yet, and no unbearable number of savages. The country is still largely mono-ethnic, immigrants from Africa wont chop your head off like in Belfast, everything is clean and well-maintained, people use social media to take care of their streets, etc. The only imported savage element, really, are the Ukrainians but mostly the young ones from better-off families who made money off the war, so they dont have to die in it. Soon all of this will come to an end, but while it lasts, its OK. Poland built most of its infrastructure mainly in the last 20-30 years. The West had its building boom decades earlier, so some parts of Poland seem more modern than the West. But it wont last long. Poland will eventually turn into a shithole too. That said, personally, i have fond memories of the 1990s. People claim it was a time of terrible poverty, crime, etc. For me and my family, it was a period of incredible prosperity, way better than Communist Poland, where we already lived in a villa and drove mercedes. The 90s were my early childhood, so maybe thats why i see them as paradise, but even today, when i watch digitized VHS footage from family parties, birthdays, BBQs, etc, everything seemed somehow healthier, more colorful and more joyful. Now everyone looks like zombies staring at their smartphones. I would gladly travel back to the 90s in a time machine.

Chinks don't have allies but trade partners, they sell weapons to everyone for cheap so they can get live testing data. This is why they are the perfect trading partner for countries like our.

Why don't the Russians just buy them before the Ukrainians do?

Like the Ukraine military commander will go on the China website but it will say sold out on all the drone interceptors

It wasnt theft, unlike the quacks today who earn 2 million PLN a year for farting around in their offices and killing patients on behalf of globohomo. Under communism, my family was entrenched in the party establishment and the secret services (especially the military), so we lived in a gray detached house with a garage and a mercedes. Under capitalism, my father became the production director at Polar, then the largest Polish refrigerator manufacturer. He used his position and the production lines to manufacture components, which he then assembled in our basement into industrial machines made to order for local entrepreneurs. It was mainly his technical talent that made us millionaires. Then daddy invested those millions in insider trading, backed by tips from military intelligence contacts who rigged the stock market listings. But still, that was mainly economic activity, not parasitic like today. Now the factory works at 1/100 of its past output and all the revenue goes to USrael (Whirlpool). Back then the honey was going only to Poles.

To this day, i remember daddy coming back home during the working-hourse in a Melex. The Polar factory was located only 2 km from our house so he used the factorys Melex to eat a meal at home with family. The Melex was a Polish electric vehicle, already produced in communist Poland and 100% based on Polish technology. Today, in this dollar-euro shithole, we can "produce" EVs only thanks to Chinas handout. In communist Poland, a doctor earned the same as a crane operator (Alternatywy 4 that cult classic TV show actually depicted this), which meant Poles lived under conditions of social justice, breeding in free apartments handed out by the state. And today, some quack, some ordinary dull-witted piece of trash writing prescriptions, makes millions a year while Poles die in waiting lines to see specialists. Thats why i am convinced that Polack nation will finally start putting up statues of beloved comrades like Gierek, Gomułka, Urban, General Jaruzelski, General Kiszczak, and the rest, once this thieving euro-dollar system finally goes tits up. It would also result in destroying statues of the pedophile John Paul 2 the Pope, the faggot Kaczynski etc etc.

The screenshot is real but has nothing to do with China. Ruslims are just coping.

>>537582315
What is it about?
>>
>>537582788
It's a local "military Amazon" marketplace where units can get additional stuff (drones are just one type of stuff from it), with the main focus on being able to pay with "e-points", which units get for submitting footage of them killing ruslims and their gear.
Kill ruslims -> get points -> spend points to get more stuff -> kill even more ruslims. Win-win.

>>537583168
Most of these drones are either direct Chinese designs, heavily based on Chinese models or assembled from dominant Chinese components/supply chains.

SkyRider models (v1 analog/digital, v3): directly reference or copy Chinese eVTOL/flying motorcycle tech from firms like KuickWheel/Rictor (Nanjing, China), which dominate low-cost quadcopter-style platforms.

GREK-ARKAN interceptors: typical Ukrainian FPV/modified designs that overwhelmingly rely on Chinese motors, flight controllers, batteries, cameras and frames - the backbone of the entire Ukrainian (and Russian) drone ecosystem.

Sting, Skywalker, etc.: Ukrainian-developed interceptors/bombers still use predominantly Chinese parts for cost and availability. Ukraine has been pushing hard to reduce this (via Taiwan/domestic alternatives), but as of recent reports, 97% of producers still depend on China for key electronics, batteries, and components due to price and scale.

Your "military Amazon" thrives on cheap, scalable Chinese-derived tech - the same global supply chain dominance (90% of commercial drones/components) that lets both sides mass-produce FPVs. Local assembly + e-points system is clever Ukrainian adaptation, but hardware ecosystem is overwhelmingly "Made in China" (or heavily Chinese-influenced). The photo i posted most probably illustrates Ukrainian ingenuity in distribution and incentives, layered on top of Chinese industrial reality.

I believe Ukraine must pay at least x3 more for them than Russia right now. But it is not a problem as you get 90 bln euro loans from the EU to buy stuff xD
>>
The Russian "Prince Vandal" (KVN) is a prime example of Slavic ingenuity and Chinese tech/industrial power. Russian engineers at Ushkuynik innovated a simple rugged fiber-optic tethered FPV design immune to radio jamming/EW using a spooled cable for reliable video/control over 65 km. Yet its ultra-low cost (few hundred $) comes from extremely cheap, high-quality Chinese COTS: motors, ESCs, flight controllers, cameras, batteries, frames, fiber components etc etc. Russian innovation lies in clever integration and mass production (hundreds of thousands/month).Pure adaptation of abundant Chinese industrial output for battlefield effect.
>>
Ukraines heavy "Baba Yaga" bombers (Nemesis) originated from Chinese agricultural drones. Initially off-the-shelf crop-spraying hexacopters, they were adapted to carry heavy munitions like TM-62 mines and 120mm mortar shells. Ukraine is now localizing assembly to reduce reliance on China. Baba Yaga uses Starlink for secure jam-resistant control. This makes it temporarily immune to electronic warfare, only physical destruction can stop it.

https://youtu.be/MEYJYbswKmE

In this vid Russians destroy several Baba Yaga hexacopters, Mavic drones, Avenger drone, few Starlink stations, communication antennas/towers,v e
vehicles and robotic platforms increasingly used by both sides for transport to save lives.

Starlink antennas are the drones command link. Destroying them disables Baba Yagas EW-resistant control, preventing night bombing runs.

Russians now use Volna Kupol Garant EW systems to jam Starlinks uplink/downlink, degrading terminal sync and forcing frequent reboots. Combined with GPS spoofing, this cuts Ukrainian drones control range.
>>
>>537572496
Why doesn't Russia just buy the entire supply then?
>>
>>537572806
It's not just that. If russian army staied near kiev and expanded to moldova, all eastern ukraine would have been effectively cut from supplies. That includes ukrainian government being cut from all the possible recruits in eastern ukraine. A gucking retard sabotaged his own military compaign.
