Leaps and bounds: Chinese drones already in the Algerian army




According to photographs and video footage from Algerian television, during a visit to the Ain Usera airbase in the 1st military region, Lieutenant General Ahmed Gaid Salah, Deputy Minister of National Defense - Chief of the General Staff of the National People's Army, was presented with Chinese CH-4 and CH-3 drones, as well as UAV flights were demonstrated. The drones on display were unarmed, but the CH-4 shows external hardpoints. CH-4 has a length of 8,5 and a height of 3,4 meters, respectively, the wingspan of this drone is 18 meters. The power plant is represented by one piston engine, which allows the drone to fly at a cruising speed of 180 km / h, while the autonomy of the UAV is up to 30 hours (without additional load).

In addition, according to the Ministry of National Defense of Algeria, in the course of the last drone drone exercises, target designation was carried out for Algerian Mi-28HE “Night Hunter” helicopters of Russian production.

Algeria has become the fourth operator of the Chinese UAV CH-4 in the Arab world after the Iraqi, Jordanian and Saudi Arabian air forces. Another CH-3 model was shipped to Nigeria and Turkmenistan, while Pakistan produced the Chinese version of the CH-3 UAV under the designation Burrak.

          There are no plans for the acquisition of frigates. But you will have to buy floating docks.

      These are not the grimaces of history, but the grimaces of the ruling clan, which does not need advanced technologies. For their age, there will be enough hydrocarbons, but there even the grass does not grow. All of them will manage to live in civilized countries, and Russia will be left with a plow. plebeians.

        All the counts and barons who escaped from Russia in 1917 ended their lives in poverty, and their descendants disappeared into history. You can’t get it for life. Berezovsky as an example. the first oligarch was. scarf tightened tight.

          Hundreds have already fled from Russia covs who stole "for the whole life" and only when the Americans began to brazenly pinch them and beat off the loot, only then did they pick up back.
          Steal only 1 billion dollars - put at least 1% on different accounts and you will have 10 million shares of annual stable income good . Until they come to take it away, you are in chocolate (if you don’t leave for 10 lyam a year).

              Let's frankly - "birch" is not just a thief, he was a balab (censorship) and he could not sit at the priest exactly, the last straw was (I don’t know how realistically) a letter to Putin to let him return to Russia. Obviously, a knowledgeable "birch" could tell "what is not necessary" so he "choked on a toffee". While everyone else is a simple thief, they stole and "fry their belly on the beaches of kolifrnscheny" am

                Well, Berezovsky is not just "balabol", he actually determined the policy of our state. At the certain time". And the fact that they threw a scarf on him, so to speak, could be many. Well, according to the article, he is only an example of the fact that all refugees end up badly.

                  Forgive me, I meant - he did not sit quietly with the stolen goods like a mouse under the bench, he knew a lot and got into trouble, which provoked his murder, The usual thief - brought the stolen goods and investing it in the Western economy is not dangerous for THEM and their "slowly undress ".

                    Yes, I understand your idea. Only I wanted to explain that Berezovsky is not just a huckster and a skier, but Glyba! but he was also sentenced. and all other skiers who don't have a billion "can go to ... ooo"!

                      But I don’t agree, Glyba is Putin, Abramovich (even the Merikases couldn’t bite him), and some others, and the "birch" was public, not the richest, but the most "balabolic". The main argument is that after his escape he became completely "nobody" and did not call him, all his "lumpiness" was precisely in access to the power levers, as soon as he lost them - all his power and significance ended.

          Berezovsky is an isolated case. Our modern rich people have prepared a safety cushion for themselves, 70% took the money out of Russia and the children are not taught in domestic schools.

    What can I say? Just that the well done Chinese do not waste time in vain. For us, our own impact drones are for some reason a problem, but I hope it’s solvable.

      Oh, just do not whine! Putin is still the best president, the people in Russia are smart and will not just vote. Pay attention, for example, to your neighbors on the porch. All are completely educated and cultured people.
      So we will still defeat these Chinese. Moreover, they do not even know how to make engines for airplanes. Where are they to us.

      Then the people of your trolling will not understand. No need to joke with the older generation, they will not appreciate it.

    We buy what is beneficial to us, like the rest of the world, for pragmatic reasons. China buys from us what it is not able to produce on its own or believes that it is more profitable to purchase from us.
    The commodity circulation of China and the USA cannot be compared with the commodity circulation of Russia and China. Does the USA grimace too? Or is it just your task to blurt out something louder so that the reaction to the blunder is stronger?

    The “similar class” of the current generation of drones is economically unsuccessful; in fact, only the United States is capable of fully exploiting them. He painted in detail why why.
    As for the last statement, you can say anything, of course, but is it worth it to be like a fence, on which too many have said something?
