Title: History is entangled, why can't China and Russia give birth to a "super baby" after decades of "military marriage"?
Title: Sino-Russian military "enemies": why is there no "super baby" in 30 years of feuds?
Recently, I was deeply puzzled by the cooperation between the two major military giants of China and Russia. After 30 years, huge investments have been made, but to no avail. Why has this seemingly iron-barrel-like partnership never been able to give birth to a set of super joint equipment, which makes people wonder: what is going on?
The starting point of the story dates back to the early 90s of the last century, when China and Russia, faced with pressure and threats from the West, began all-round military cooperation in order to meet common challenges. However, this cooperation has since made little substantive progress. Why?I delved into this issue.
Emotional stimulation.
First of all, looking back on history, I can't help but feel emotional. The concept of the giant alliance is exciting, but it has repeatedly hit a wall in practice. Why has tens of billions of dollars been invested in the past 30 years, but no decent joint equipment has been produced?It is inevitable that people will be disappointed and even angry about this military "marriage".
Depiction of specific events.
At this point, we might as well go back in time. In the early 90s of the last century, China and Russia began military cooperation, and the original intention of this cooperation was to jointly counter the threat from the West. However, the vision that started with the partnership did not materialize over time. I saw specific events one by one and felt the dilemma of the two sides in cooperation.
China invested tens of billions, different ideas of Russia.
China has invested heavily and has a powerful aviation industry, while Russia has a head start in the field of missiles. However, in order to achieve true joint equipment, the two countries need to complement each other's technological shortcomings. This is undoubtedly a difficult task and a major reason for the difficulty of cooperation.
Strategic concepts collide.
What is more, there are huge differences between China and Russia in terms of strategic concepts. China pays more attention to technology import and independent research and development, while Russia is more inclined to export military technology. This difference in strategic concepts has led to disagreements between the two sides in military cooperation, making the launch of joint equipment difficult.
Political considerations and complex relationships.
In the end, political factors became a stumbling block in military cooperation. The two countries have their own political considerations in their cooperation, and they need to find a balance between protecting and maintaining the development of domestic industries. This makes the advent of advanced joint equipment more complicated, like a political game.
The stance is clear.
I can't keep my cool for all of this. From my personal point of view, the Chinese side has invested a lot of resources in its efforts to promote cooperation, but in the face of the differences and troubles from the Russian side, it has not been able to reap the rewards it deserves. This is really dissatisfying and aggrieved for China.
The voice of Chinese netizens.
On the Internet, there are also many netizens who express similar feelings. Some people accuse Russia of not working hard enough in cooperation, and some people feel sorry for China's efforts. Although subjective, these voices reflect a part of public opinion. Netizen "Riding a Donkey to Find a Donkey" said: "After 30 years, how did the giant alliance become a 'short alliance'?Why does China always suffer?”
The first half is summarized.
Generally speaking, the road of Sino-Russian joint armament is bumpy and tortuous, which is caused by the complex relationship between technical difficulties, differences in strategic concepts, and political factors. Although China has made a lot of efforts in cooperation, it has not been able to obtain advanced joint equipment as it had hoped. But this is only the first half of the story, and let's continue to dig deeper into the question of whether the future can usher in a turnaround.

China's persistence and expectations.
When we talk about Sino-Russian military cooperation, how can we not mention China's insistence and expectations?Over the past 30 years, China has been working hard to promote the development of this "military marriage", and has paid a lot of effort for this. Despite the technical, strategic, and political difficulties, China has not given up.
The "shortcoming" of technology is not a weakness.
In this military cooperation, China is constantly trying to fill the "shortcomings" in technology. It is undeniable that we have strong capabilities in some areas, such as the aerospace industry. However, in order to achieve true joint equipment, we are also well aware that we still have obvious shortcomings in other areas. However, this is not a weakness, but the direction in which China is working harder.
Strategic differences, we are more confident.
The difference in strategic concepts is not a problem, but a unique confidence. China has always emphasized technology introduction and independent research and development, and paid attention to protecting the country's core technologies. Russia, by contrast, tends to export military technology. This difference is also a kind of strategic self-confidence that China has gradually formed in the process of becoming a world military power.
Political game, we will not lose.
Of course, there are political factors, but China will not give in to this game easily. Protecting the development of domestic industries is the bottom line of China, but this does not mean that we will be tied up. In the face of intertwined interests, China will continue to find a balance and stick to the bottom line for its own interests.
Netizens are hotly discussed, and more are looking forward to it.
Online, there are many netizens who have expressed concern about this topic. Netizen "The End of the World" said: "China has been working hard, and I believe that one day we will see the pinnacle of Sino-Russian cooperation." This optimistic voice reflects the expectations and confidence of more Chinese.
Chinese-style persistence is worthy of respect.
In general, although Sino-Russian military cooperation has experienced twists and turns, China's persistence and efforts are definitely worthy of respect. We are not afraid of difficulties and do not give up easily. In this seemingly hopeless "military marriage", we have confidence, a bottom line, and Chinese-style perseverance.
Future outlook. Perhaps, the current cooperation has not yet ushered in the desired results, but we believe that there will be better development in the future. China will continue to work hard, not only to fight for its national interests, but also to demonstrate its resilience and wisdom in the international military arena. I look forward to the day in the future, when we will finally see a set of super joint equipment that truly belongs to Sino-Russian cooperation come out.
