China should get the condom factories to produce latex in weather balloons like I suggested in my shitpost. We’ll be seeing massive panic hoarding of rubber in the not so near future.

5,000 is also a ridiculously large number for a country not at war. You only need a few drones if you wanted to analyse them, and the Iranians wouldn't be announcing it. China has companies selling military drones for export that haven't been bought by the PLA, you'd think they'd go to them first before Iranians.I think our Iranian friends are using it as a flex, ie look we are together also with another yankee adversary. At the most the Chinese may have bought a small batch to see its effectiveness is as reported.
From what I know there will be a highly detailed and comprehensive report about all the weapons and tactics employed by all sides in this war, it is the Chinese way.
This guy seems adamant the second recorded kill of the F-22 was a US National Weather Service balloon.
Yeah, that's one of a few reasonable explanations if these news are true. If all the factories are already full, then it makes sense to just buy the excess demand from other countries, especially considering that those are pretty simple drones that probably don't need extensive integration or state-of-the-art specs.They might be gearing for war and need such a large number of drones not even their factories can fullfill it.
That's highly unlikely. Whatever Iran can provide would be a drop in the bucket compared to China's own manufacturing capacity. If China really have an urgent need for large number of drones, we'd be seeing Chinese manufacturers gearing up for massive production increases first.They might be gearing for war and need such a large number of drones not even their factories can fullfill it.
If the factories are already working at full capacity, then buying up the remaining excess demand is reasonable. However, I doubt these news are true in the first place.That's highly unlikely. Whatever Iran can provide would be a drop in the bucket compared to China's own manufacturing capacity.

Another possible explanation is that Russia is buying those drones through Chinese shell companies but in that case why would Iranian government publicize such a thing when their modus operandi so far has been officially denying that they sell the drones to Russia?
If China wanted to subsidise the Iranian defence industry they would just provide a low interest loan through some shell company. If they wanted something in return it would be rugs or pistachios, not drones.Or China might be subsidizing the Iranian defense industry for political purposes and making it look like an arms purchase while also getting somewhat useful equipment. The Pentagon does this to small defense start-ups all the time. They buy their equipment even if they are not intending to use them. I still think we are discussing fake news as Trump would call it, though.
