frankly, if I am in charge of US war fighting machinery, instead of sanctioning China China China, I would be buying China-China-China-made weapons by the shiploads for direct DHL / Fedex / Amazon / Alibaba delivery to Ukraine as opposed to depend on supply-chain constrained domestic USA manufacturers, overly sophisticated German suppliers, fussy French companies, and very-risky S Korean outfits, and never mind the UK that cannot even keep a simple aircraft carrier going
Watching the Zhuhai airshow rollouts
looks doable at least in the short term for use to aid Ukraine at moment of imperatives instead of making an ally wait, wait, wait until the clock runs out
Should even consider buying weapons from the People's Republic of China to ship to the Republic of China, to expedite the 3-years wait-time, and to avoid violating sovereignty issues
the last video indicates a workaround for the rivers of Ukraine and the issues related to bridges that can be taken out by China-sourced 'Himars' in industrial numbers as opposed to in sample odd lots
also, given some level of system-inter operability with Ukraine's traditional weapons, Ukraine troops might require less training and less logistics nightmare militarywatchmagazine.com
