 Resumption of military technical cooperation between China and Russia and its subsequent rapid growth with two key historical factors are closely related. First Sino-Soviet relations at the turn of the last century, the normalization of 80-90 years; Second, China needed 90 in the last century, military sources of imports, which only the Soviet Union and then Russia can do it. In addition, the Chinese military until the late 80's main armament is equipped with Soviet-made product is still, or 40-50 years of Soviet equipment, the direct copy, or products in the Soviet Union was little changed on the basis of improved products. In fact, early 60s after the collapse of the bilateral relations, China needed modern equipment and weapons can only purchase weapons from the Soviet Union obtained a third country, after the Soviet Union to continue to study and imitation samples. China and Russia in the second round of military-technical cooperation, and 40 years ago, attaches great importance to practical, mainly reflected in three aspects: the modernization of the Soviet Union and the Russian supply of weapons are only the most important branches of the military forces and equipment; active research and Generic critical equipment, systems and engines in order to sample their production; with the Soviet Union related research and educational institutions developing their own R & D design team.

Russia last 20 years the field of all weapons and equipment are to follow the logic of exchange, although the Russian side in the 21st century, the Chinese side before the fact very difficult to find the position of this systematic approach. It has been 50 years in the objective existence of the last century, when the Soviet Union to China when large quantities of modern weapons and equipment, and strictly limit access to their allies at the most critical technology, which, in combination with China's internal turmoil of the 60s, China the development of military industry in the Soviet Union to withhold aid reason to slow down quickly. Today, decades later, China is ready to re-take the old road.CHINA MILITARY

J-20 fighter side view  

For China, the most serious situation in the field of aviation. Chinese Air Force in the early 90's was the first major equipment and second-generation equipment, which were similar to the Soviet MiG MiG -17 and -19 to -5 F, J -6, constitute the foundation of China's frontline air force. And the mass production of J -6 until the early 80s until the end, than similar products in the Soviet Union a full 20 years later. China also produced here imitation MiG -21 J-7, and sell to foreign markets. At that time the most modern fighter is the J -8, it is also the further development of the MiG -21 variant, only Bi Mige -21 heavier larger, but the lack of air mobility. The same backward attack fleet, strong MiG -19 -5 is made on the basis of research, H-5and H-6 are respectively based IL-28 bomber and Tu-16 bomber. Markey extension of the famous Russian military experts said Section, in addition to equipment is seriously lagging behind, the Chinese air force was another important defect is not any actual combat experience, both in tactical or strategic level, but not ideal training for flight personnel, infrastructure behind the low level command. Both the Korean War, or the Vietnam War, the Chinese Air Force did not actively participate. Chinese Air Force and the Chinese army, the fighting strength is not strong, combat readiness level is not high.CHINA MILITARY
