Pakistan's iron brother Pakistan on the mainland, held a big military parade today, this is a large-scale military parade held by Pakistan every year, Pakistan's equipment is becoming more and more sophisticated, at a glance VT-4 led by the three main battle tanks, they are all made in China, no wonder many netizens ridiculed, Pakistan is simply advertising Chinese weapons?
The VT-4 main battle tank is a foreign trade tank built by the mainland, which has been assembled and produced in Pakistan, and Pakistan will regard this tank as the core army combat tank.
The previous T-80U tank model ready to be upgraded is nowhere to be seen, this is a tank built by Ukraine, and it was originally a very promising foreign trade weapon, once because of the comprehensive combat power and design concept, etc., in the foreign trade export weapons, it is better than the competitive performance of China's foreign trade tanks, but now because of the war in Ukraine, it is impossible to take into account the normal performance of foreign trade orders, and this Ukrainian-made tank may not be able to achieve normal production and delivery.
Therefore, the Pakistani side can only give up waiting for the upgraded model of this tank. And the original T-80UD tank, which was in service with the Pakistani side, is estimated to gradually fade out of sight.
The tanks built by the mainland account for more and more of Pakistan's lineup, which is also the reason for international attention, China's made foreign trade weapons, in fact, the export channels are still limited, after all, the West always obstructs in every possible way, trying to reduce the proportion of Chinese weapons in the international market, the United States and other countries are all arms exporters, how can we look at good and preferential Chinese weapons to seize the international market, so I want to think about the stumbling in my heart has never been eliminated.
Pakistan has been friendly and trusting with China for many years, and it is natural that China's weapons will be preferred, such as China's tanks and missiles, which are the core combat capabilities that the Pakistani military attaches great importance to.
Hongqi-9BE, and Hongqi-16's export foreign trade model LY-80, are both missile models imported from Pakistan, and the Hongqi-7B export model FM-90 in the early years have played an important role in maintaining border security for Pakistan.
Pakistan's high trust in Chinese weapons is also a conclusion that is genuinely admired after comparison and practice, such as the Hongqi 7 series, which can be seen by comparing the radar systems that Pakistan has imported from the United States and Germany.
The solid-state radar early warning system of the United States, when deployed in Pakistan, has a maximum early warning detection capability of 460 kilometers and can detect an altitude of 30,000 meters.
The general weapons procurement and use cycle has to take ten years as a cycle, and in this time period, many weapons and equipment will be upgraded, the mainland's military industry development speed is progressing rapidly, but many weapons and equipment can not be well promoted, there are many reasons, both the West's blocking, there are also weapons system docking problems, for example, in the past, some countries used Western-made weapons, connecting the mainland's weapon system, naturally there must be some procedures and system replacement troubles, and to re-adapt and run-in, so many countries will follow the original import channels considering the system consistency of the previous imported weapons。
The mainland is a rising star, and it has just begun to emerge in the international market, so in terms of military weapons, many countries are still understanding and waiting and seeing, and there is a process of acceptance, and there is also a process of familiarity with use.
The area covered by the power of China's weapons is gradually expanding, and under the influence of this influence, it will become more and more powerful and attract more countries. Therefore, this military parade in Pakistan is not so much about advertising Chinese weapons, but rather about the fact that Chinese weapons have been able to gradually and steadily promote the export business, gain a high degree of trust from cooperative countries, and rely on the comprehensive advantages in use, so that China-made weapons are increasingly displayed in front of the world.
Pakistan's military parade this time can also give a positive and positive evaluation of China's weapons, after all, as a country's military deployment of highly relied on equipment, it must be able to pass the test in terms of combat strength and comprehensive strength, and the quality and after-sales service must be satisfactory in order to achieve this effect.
Therefore, the West has seen that China's arms export business is unfolding in an orderly manner, and it is also with a sour grapes mentality.
The Pakistani Brothers' generous appearance of China-made weapons this time also provides more opportunities for the mainland to display weapons, so that more countries can go from wait-and-see to curiosity, so that more foreign trade weapons can go abroad, and lay a better foundation for a virtuous circle of mainland arms exports.
It is expected that China's weapons will be upgraded more rapidly, and at the same time, it will have greater production and supply capacity and become a major weapons manufacturer in the world.
