Will come in the spring: China negotiate with Russia on the supply of drones-Kamikadze-the media
It is reported that the drones will then be transferred to the Ministry of Defense of Russia. This can happen in about April 2023. Military experts, who were spoken by journalists, believe that the ZT-180 is capable of carrying a warhead weighing 35 to 50 kg. The publication writes that the design can be similar to the design of the Iranian drone-Kamikadze Shaheed-136, which the army of the Russian Federation has already used in Ukraine.
The material says that the Chinese company Bingo plans to supply components that will allow the Russian Federation to produce drones-Kamikadze independently in the amount of about 100 a month. More reporting journalists reported, as early as 2022, the PRC had to help the Russian Federation. Yes, companies that have been controlled by China's army planned to supply details for Russian Su-27 fighters and other models.
It is assumed that plans for counterfeiting documents have been developed so that spare parts for military aircraft look like spare parts for civil aviation. Back in January, the Dutch Public TV and Radio Company NOS reported that the Dutch microcyps were supplied to the Russian defense industry through Chinese companies. It is reported that Ukrainian experts have also found microchips from the Netherlands in 10 out of 27 captured or destroyed systems of Russian weapons.
The newspaper writes that for several months, the Security Service of several countries has circulated reports that Chinese companies have been providing the Russian Federation with satellite images of hostilities in Ukraine. In response, the US government has recently introduced a Chinese satellite company Changsha Tianyi Space Science and Technology Institute to its sanctions list. Washington claims that the company received the Wagner PEC.
Journalists also write that Berlin has information that China also supplies commercially available civilian drones to customers from Russia. These UAVs could use Russian invaders for intelligence. The publication reports that such drones of the Russian Federation received from Chinese companies through the UAE. Experts said that there was evidence that Russian troops really used such drones.
According to the material, it may be one of the reasons that both German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Foreign Minister Annalen Berbok touched Moscow's possible military support by Beijing in conversations with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of China Van and at the Munich Conference on Security. The Chinese diplomat reacted coldly to such reports from German representatives and stated that the PRC was "playing according to the rules". Beijing also denies the supply of Moscow of any weapon.
We will remind that earlier in the Pentagon stated that China did not remove from the agenda of sending weapons of Russia. According to Sabrina Singh, it is not yet visible that the PRC to provide Russia with military assistance. However, Beijing continues to think about it. China in the UN called on the Russian Federation and Ukraine to sit at the negotiation table. According to a representative of the PRC, the world should focus on peace talks, not on supplying weapons for the Armed Forces.
