China to open a drone factory in Saudi Arabia

.
I am impressed by this move by saudi government by starting a battle tech development program in SA.this could lead to a greater project induction like advance aircrafts for saudi airforce with the help of china,just like it did with pakistan.only on much greater level.:tup:

Chinese will sell their stuff to anyone for cash. During Soviet War in Afghanistan. They provided diplomatic support to the Soviets at the same time sold weapons to Pakistan against Soviets.
Bro, forgive me for wasting your time.
China and the Soviet Union began diplomatic confrontation in 60s. In 1969, the two countries clash in Chen-pao Island. Almost triggered a nuclear war. After that, China condemns the Soviet invasion of afghanistan. and China and US relations became ambiguous. So until 1991, The relationship between China and the Soviet Union has never been eased.
 
.
SA had the tradition of buying Chinese weapons in large batches, and maintain good relation with US/NATO at the same time. This is a win-win situation so the more the merrier. One thing I am surprised is they prefer CH-4/5 (also sold to Iraq) over the larger WL-2 series.

From China's side, selling to both SA and Iran is the best result, these customers are not mutually exclusive.
 
.
I trust them indeed. Let's agree to disagree.


很多都是有英美背景的小巴,这些人受西方影响对中国印象不好。我去过巴基斯坦,老板姓对中国人是真心没话说。别因为一些老鼠屎,就坏了一锅粥。唯一的朋友,我们没朋友了。

Get rid of Communists and we will have more friends. Besides, they are not true communists.:blink:

There is no real friends in foreign relations, only interests. Once (and if) China becomes the overwhelming #1 superpower, Japan/Korea or even Singapore will be the best friends and they will say friendship is forever like people will forget about history. These are just pest countries they can't wait for China's decline but they will lick the floor before you walk on without you asking it, as long as you are a superpower.

Soon as China become a sustainable and unquestionable No.1, Western media will go pro-communist and praise communism as if it is the savior of world, although China (and Vietnam) model is not communist at all.

Remember, communism is an Western invention, so they will praise when they have no reason to bash it. And the current democracy model will be talked about as an import from Middle East or somewhere else, but absolutely not an Western idea.

all that money Saudi Arbia has and yet it's Muslim engineers can't develop UAVs. Saudi Arabia should take a good long look at Israel and Iran and ponder why they unable to achieve that level of self reliance and ingenuity

Same reason why Indians don't have a successful arms industry

Indians need to invest 100's of billion of dollars in R&D, but they only put in the minimum. take for instance Kaveri jet engine. they've been working on that for what 30 years and the budget has been less than $1 billion dollars, haha. not going to work.

at least with China they put the money in and they are IP thieves.
 
. .
beside money, they also need brain
they got the brains, but they need money. they need experience. it's hard building a jet engine from scratch. throw the money in and work with the Russians or French to build a jet engine, take that knowledge to build a even better engine in the future.
