  • 🌍💥 China's quest for global arms trade dominance is facing a major hurdle! Despite becoming a top arms exporter and developing advanced jets like the J-20 and J-10, China struggles to sell modern fighter jets on the global stage. 🚀✈️ In this video, we delve into why the demand for Chinese jets is so low, exploring factors like quality, price, and political influence. Will China break through these barriers? #GlobalDominance #FighterJets #MilitaryPower #ChinaArmsExport #China #globalpolitics #globalmarketing #MilitaryTechnology #AirForce #DefenseIndustry #J20 #J10 #ArmsTrade

      It’s terrible part is that China now has the engineering and manufacturing capability to produce those. That company probably spent tens of millions to develop their air frame and while China may make low quality now it will lead to them producing high-quality air frames with zero investment in development. Companies that used Chinese manufacturing to are responsible for trillions and economic losses for the United States.

    Sweden makes excellent jets, often ahead of their time, and countries aren't lining up to buy them. There are a lot of political factors in aircraft purchases. For example, America has several very large scale aircraft manufacturers. If a foreign made aircraft won competition and was selected by the U.S. military, severe public criticism would occur. That situation probably exists for many weapon systems.

      One of the most important factors regarding any military system is ensuring ongoing and quick support for it. If it's adopted at its home country, if it has other clients who demand service and can become a third party supplier, how much is the foreign government likely to deny you service due to a political conflict (either directly or through sanctions), and how much you can support it locally.
      Plus - on a personal level - no one making purchasing decisions wants to be the guinea pig.

      I think that’s a good point but I think in a different way.
      It’s whenever the countries that have had their specs stolen and reverse engineered suddenly do home grown upgrades that they roll out to their models and customers. The Chinese logistics chain then have to either steal the new specs again or somehow parallel engineer it.

    The problem with Turkey is that it is a NATO member. When they joined NATO, we did not have sophisticated communications networks, so it was possible to purchase cheaper planes from Russia and China, but now the requirements for NATO have been significantly updated for hive capabilities. With an F-35, you can purchase the soon to be available drone wingman that will keep up with the F-35 for much cheaper. 1 F-35 will be able to control something like 4 drone wingman aircraft. This reduces costs by only requiring 1 pilot for 5 planes all capable of shooting down targets in a coordinated strike. You can also send the drones up ahead to protect the main command control. From what I read, these drones will have an automatic switchover to another nearby F-35 in the event that the assigned F-35 goes down. Drones will be the future. Hive networks are the future. With the network being put into place, even tanks, aircraft carriers, and AWACs in the area will be able to see all and control all.

      remember that they only sell to allied countries and, for example, Thailand wanted to buy the F35 but the US did not agree for fear that Thailand would pass on the plans to China

      Except the development of the Arjun tank is still a joke. After decades of investment, there is still nothing to show. The Tejas aircraft uses American bought engines. And they even use designs licensed from the Russians for simple things like firearms. It will still be 30-50 years for india to properly develop a MIC, and thats IF corruption doesn’t hinder efforts.

    The most important thing about a modern fighter jet is the capability and reliability of its avionics equipment. However, the performance of Chinese fighter jets in this regard is obviously not ideal. Even China’s allies have given negative comments after using Chinese fighter jets.

  • @chloeforman
    @chloeforman Před 23 dny

    I can think of two reasons. One, American Aircraft has a proven track record in combat. Two, China might quickly become unreliable in terms of providing spare parts in the event of a conflict with the U.S., or even with just Taiwan.

  • @noapologizes2018

    So, the Chinese have a few look a like fighters in their inventory. One looks like the French Mirage and the other looks like a variant of the old U.S. F-106. But in spite of their efforts, Chinese jets could not stand up to other Fighters of the world, including their precious J-20.

    Within Pakistan, which operates Chinese and western jets.. the AF generally prefers the latter.

But whenever possible, Pakistan will try to insist on western avionics in Chinese jets

    The J20 is a crapy Chinese knockoff. It’s a generation 4.5 at best. Not a 5th generation. The fact that it isn’t a true stealth keeps it from being a 5 generation. It’s as stealthy as a F18 super Hornet. Not stealthy at all.
