Russia is testing a new LTE-enabled drone. Ukraine’s DIU released a 3D model and details, noting its use across the front. The UAV resembles a smaller Shahed-131 (Geran-1). Nearly half its parts, including key electronics, are made in China. war-sanctions.gur.gov.ua/page-ag-4862

After the war, China will delete this information and never use it against Taiwan. That is certain. The longer the war lasts, the better China can prepare itself. While we are becoming increasingly “tired.”

Ah, thanks! So it’s like a flying cell phone? If so, that would be putting the “capital-M mobile” in mobile phones! 🙃

Where is the other half of the parts from? Bet there's many Western parts without which the Chinese parts might be of no use.
