Chinese attacks and hacker attacks on Russian defense facilities are not uncommon, Chinapower notes.
The stream of weapons from Russia to China during the reign of Vladimir Putin began to run out. From 2009 to 2023, Importing China’s weapons dropped 40% compared to the last 15-year period. This was reported by the Analytical Center Chinapower.
Part of Russia in importing Chinese weapons fell from 85% to 68%. However, the reason was not just in the war of Russia and Ukraine, which caused a decline. The decline is also associated with China’s copying of Russian weapons and massive intellectual property and technology.
For the past 20 years, at least 21 cases of attacking spies and hacker attacks on Russian businesses of defense defense, especially in the field of aerospace technologies. It is known about at least 11 cases in Russia about leakage of secret data.
China also systematically violated terms of licensing agreements with Russian suppliers, copying and applying equipment for its needs. For example, the J-11 fighter was copied from the Russian SU-27, and the HQ-9 anti-air missile system was suspicious of the S-300.
Russian State Corporation Rostec In 2019, he officially said that within 17 years 500 cases of illegal copying of its products were recorded. In a rare public commentary, the company openly accused China of cloning aircraft, aircraft DryDeck Fighters, Air Defense Systems, Portable Anti -Aircraft Missiles and Analogues of ZRPK Shell.
After copying equipment in Russia, China reduced its purchases and manufactured modern types of weapons independently – from fighters to warships. However, in a critical field of aviation machines, Russia’s hope is maintained.
Other changes occurred in the relationship between countries. Today Russia is increasingly talking about China as a major supplier of components and technologies. According to the US National Intelligence Department, Chinese state defense companies continue to provide dual products in Russia: semiconductors, drones, components for fighters and equipment for an electronic warfare. Of particular importance is the supply of machines with a number management, without which military equipment is impossible.
From January 2022 to July 2023, the amount of monthly exports of such machines from China to Russia increased almost 10 times – from $ 7 billion to over $ 68 billion. China has always been a category that denies the supply of Russian weapons.
Keep in mind that transfer police officers have evicted a citizen of China from Ukraine, who has conducted intelligence activities, hiding behind the official scientific and technical cooperation between countries. The scientist delivers a sentence to the Dnipropetrovsk regional correction colonies, and then in zaporizhzhya.
