I thought they had some for some reason
People need to start distinguishing between the little quadcopters you can buy at walmart, and fucking reaper drones. Headlines like "China is selling drones to Russia" makes it seem like it isn't a $150 drone bought off fucking aliexpress
That lack of distinction is 100% on purpose since China dominates the consumer drones market and they're so versatile and capable that countries all over the world including the US buy DJI drones for military operations
Can blame China for giving every country "drones"
china dominates the consumer goods market, period. by these standards the chinese have been supplying every NATO war for the past 20 years.
smh revisionism has really gone too far
