If SK joined then immediately NK will join the war.
Look how Russia is outputting NATO on weapons production, now imagine China that is even more advanced in terms of AI and population size.
On like Ukraine that is surrounded by NATO countries, Taiwan don’t have that luxury, they are surrounded by water and the water is very close to main China.
A total blockade is enough.
China military weapons are state owned just like Russia which allow those nations to be able to produce military equipments and hardware are a very low cost.
Check Russia military hardware before the war and during the war in Ukraine.
WW2 showed that quantity is far better than quality.
AK47 is cheaper than any NATO guns.

Wait ooh, we don’t even have bunkers in Nigeria to protect us in case of war. Nothing at all

Trump on Ukraine:

We've been helping them and we'll continue to help them.

I told you I was very unhappy with my call with Putin. It just seems like he wants to go all the way and just keep killing people. No good. It's not good. I wasn't happy with him. pic.twitter.com/wBSaY5ZA62

⚡ Air raid alert declared in Taganrog, Rostov Russia.

Air defense systems are active, according to the city’s mayor.

I still don't understand why Putin is handling Zelensky with soft hands.

Cripple Ukraine's assault capabilities, eliminate Zelensky and facilitate a regime change in the process. The next President will use Zelensky's death as past question papers for his administrative decisions.

This repulsive circle has gone on for too long since 2022 .

I remember Lord Adamu calling for the Jews to invade Yemen as they did with Hazebolla in labenon and Hamas in Gaza after the latters were decimated in labenon and Gaza

Truely it came to pass.

The report is untrue.

Iran does not need jets for offensive operations against a peer power.
They're primarily for defense and will be used in coordination with new AWACS deliveries and a robust air defense network.

The J-10C is more than a match for the vast majority of fighters in the IAF.
It is a 4.5 gen jet.
Rather than having an inventory of hundreds of jet to rotate, the IAF will be down to the 40 or so F-35Is.
That's not good enough for Israel's preferred short intensive war strategy.
Also, it means missile launcher survivability would almost triple.

---

TL:DR;
The J-10Cs alone are not a silver bullet. Iran would need AWACS and a robust AD network as well.
Only an amalgamation of all three would lead to a more secure Iranian airspace.

Against Israel, enemy offensive ability will be severely curtailed.
Against the US, it'll buy enough time to deactivate US bases in the region.
There will be countermeasures, like using Cypriot bases, so they'll need a steady supply of replacements in a war with the US.
But for Israel alone or a repeat of the 12 day war, the combination is good enough.

⚡At this moment, dozens of Ukrainian naval drones are attacking the port of Novorossiysk in Russia’s Krasnodar region, targeting high-value military equipment deployed along the coastline for defense.

So how those so called gun carriers go take shoot Chinese people from across the Pacific Ocean?

Werey think say any war with China go involve guns or even tanks.

Even if na gun to gun fight. China just need arm 400 million people with guns, come keep the remaining 1.1 billion in reserve.

The entire NATO no even reach 1 billion people.

This is the famous port of Haifa. When Iranians claimed they’ve completely destroyed it, I was one of those who silently said, “come on!” But there we are. This is the Port of Haifa, in Israel. Just look at the extent of damage - as if the structures have been melted in acid.… pic.twitter.com/ShWpRlslOD

This tells you all you need to know about the chosen air defence.
