Commander of the Armed Forces: Ecuador has completely lost its ground defense elementEcuador completely lost its ground-based air defense element due to the failure of all Chinese-made radars. This was announced on Wednesday by the head of the Joint Command of the Armed Forces Leonardo Barreiro.

"Since we do not have radar now, we replace them with other means that allow us to exercise control over the sky," he said. Barreiro stressed that the Ecuadorian air force is currently using Brazilian Super Tucano / Super Tucano aircraft to patrol and curb attempts to tamper with the country's airspace. The commander added that at the moment there is not a single operating radar in the armed forces.

Four air defense radars were acquired in 2009 for $ 60 million from a Chinese manufacturer of military products, China Electronics / Technology Group Corporation, CETC /, to protect against air attack. Similar equipment was needed in the South American country after a year earlier the Colombian air force had attacked Ecuadorian territory, attacking the rebel camps of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia.

          Anecdote to the topic
          Interview with the first Mongolian cosmonaut. "Tell me, why are your hands blue?"
          "It was the Russians who beat me on the hands. And they said: don't get in here, monkey."

            In the original source, this anecdote appeared after the flight of the Bulgarian cosmonauts Ivanov.
            But only in a more friendly tone:
            The command from the MCC sounds.
            Bulgarian astronaut reaches for toggle switches and buttons.
            ... gets hand in hand and hears:

                And how to make it profitable? Russia produces electronics, just electronics of a different kind, not "pop". And we are leaders in many segments. But this is a piece of equipment for important projects.
                And producing phones or televisions is very expensive.
                The fact is that China and all of Southeast Asia are imprisoned for this. They have several mega-plants for the production of processors and components. And these 2-3 plants supply the whole region with components. All sorts of different APLs or Samsungs only create the architecture and software of their devices and assemble them in Chinese factories. There is a certain division of labor, but, in principle, many states of the region work in one bundle.

                How to compete with such a system? And in order to simply produce a simple "mid-range" mobile phone, we need to build many factories from scratch, which will not be profitable and will never pay off. because even if you take loans and set up the entire production line, and release a mass product, it will lose in price to competitors, since you need to amortize construction costs and repay loans. And one can survive only on state subsidies and on the condition of a large internal market, which, as you know, is already oversaturated by competitors. As a result, in order to reach the level of at least Taiwan, you need to take tens of billions of dollars somewhere, build everything and then subsidize producers from the budget so that they do not go broke. and what is the benefit?

                At this stage, until breakthrough developments appear in the Russian Federation, the stake can and should be made on outsourcing the production of electronics, and within the country, generating ideas for "marketing and architecture" of popular devices, and producing them in China as well. This is a worldwide practice.

              There is such a thing as prime cost. You can do everything, but the question is what price you will get.

              Everything is simple. Why produce, think, count. Purchased products in China, pulled across the border (different methods), sold. Profit threw offshore and so on in a circle. If, what’s wrong, the ticket fell over the hill and no problems.
              And production, it must be able to work, plus a lot of parasites from all sides.

                Some have done it. But not so long ago, the offshore company was closed, up to 70% of the money was taken away, taxes were raised and the accounts were frozen. That's how it happens with the "civilized".

              Why is it not in demand? Now engineers and builders are required. Are there any candidates? But managers and lawyers are not needed, and everyone climbs there with a fool. The problem is that the Russian Federation missed its chance to enter the consumer goods market. The stake should be placed on advanced production in key sectors of the economy, which is actually being done now. and now there is a "hunger" for engineers and locksmiths, builders and scientists. This is where you need to exert strength.
              And creating factories for the assembly of televisions and cell phones is unprofitable with such competition. At least not the state should be engaged in this, but the "market", that is, we are with you if there are talents and resources.

            The Chinese are great, you will not say anything. But it is also not worth discarding. Everything that you have listed is produced in Russia. But it is difficult to compete with China in the consumer goods niche, since the production system there is debugged at the highest level, and it is simply unprofitable to produce the same quality. But 98% of these are goods of the "consumer society". However, there are other market segments that are much more important for the economy of the state, and in them the Chinese just do not succeed. Complex equipment in China is unlikely to be produced when the specifics are different.

        Yes, we passed and IT! In the 70s, many enterprises (even those included in the defense industry) took products home for work! The wise men equipped their garages in order to rivet a plan and a paycheck on weekends. And the authorities knew about and kept quiet. Even more cunning could wash boards under hot water with soap (from flux) - if there was no alcohol. What will they be? They asked!

        So the Chinese are the same. There are no perfect nations.
        And the Chinese got into the stream = on the one hand, the states threw production capacities on super cheap slave power, on the other hand, ours were hungry for consumer goods and received "easy money" = a sales market for the Chinese.
        It is we - Russia that raised China with their consumption!
        And who did not "give" their hard-earned money.

          And what can you fuck from Ecuador? Bananas, potatoes, fish, lobsters are swept aside, further - Mining operations are mainly concentrated in the south of the Oriente region, where since 1995 there has been a sharp increase in gold production. The main resource of Ecuador's subsoil is oil, which has been produced since 1917; Oil became a significant source of income only after the Texaco-Gulf consortium began developing the rich Oriente oil fields. The oil produced there is transported via the Transandian oil pipeline to the port of Esmeraldas and to the nearby oil refineries http://www.gecont.ru/articles/econ/equador.htm
          This is already more interesting, it is urgent to send a delegation, to trade air defense systems in exchange for oil, the more so, the government is center-left, and here Ecuador also has significant natural gas reserves (proven reserves are estimated at 8,9 billion cubic meters), however, they are still underutilized due to the lack of appropriate infrastructure. The volume of natural gas production in Ecuador in 2008 amounted to 260 million cubic meters. m. In the province of Loja, copper, silver, gold are mined in small quantities. The main industries are oil refining, food, textile and clothing, metalworking, pulp and paper, woodworking, chemical, pharmaceutical and plastic manufacturing. In short, the country is completely solvent, geographical the situation is strategically interesting, you have to bargain.

            Well, any state needs radars, they certainly won’t defend toucans, there almost all of America’s lat under the northern neighbor lies either on the shoulder blades or on its side. and they stupidly drive the merchants with toucans, but they serve the civil aviation radar station, but sorry, I served lol

    The failure of 4 radars at the same time, even if strongly Chinese, is from the realm of fairy tales. Chinese military equipment and Chinese consumer goods are two big differences and non-compliance with quality standards in the production of military equipment is punished in China very severely, up to the death penalty. So, most likely, the Guatemalan "exploiters" of the radar did not study the materiel properly, or someone from China's competitors needed to sell their equipment there, which is more likely.

                    Well, do normal tanks, Russians. Who's stopping you?

                    And now I’m starting fun. As there for the mattresses, the transfer is called legend destroyers.
                    Excellent tank "Abrams". The main thing is high-tech. Instead of an automatic loader, he has a black jock, throwing shots into the breech. Historically, missile firing is not provided for in it. It looks impressive as well. The tower is the size of a garden house. The engine is great. Almost like the T80, only better. The temperature of the outgoing gases is such that the IR seeker sees it from space. The issue of insufficient power of the main engine for twisting a garden house with a cannon has been correctly resolved. An additional diesel engine is attached to the turret. They usually tend to shoot him with a machine gun, which inevitably leads to the complete burnout of the entire tank. Another advantage is the low price and good manufacturability. Probably because, practically no one is going to buy them, except for the US Army. In the USSR and Russia, there was always a tension with blacks. It must be assumed that the graduates of the Peoples' Friendship University of Moscow. Patrice Lumumba categorically did not want to go to the loaders. Therefore, in "teshkas", starting from the mid-70s, even with the T-72, automatic cannons were installed, and the crew, respectively, was three people, without a loader. Accordingly, the "teshki" are both shorter in height and lighter in weight, and their tower is somehow small and "flattened", no "solidity." And the "Abrams" looks impressive. Ba-alshoy so-akoy. And the temperature of the outgoing gases is such that the satellite sees the Abrams from space in any weather. And the helicopter anti-tank missile guidance system will even more see, even from a maximum distance. But the engine is excellent - as much as one and a half thousand horses. Where is there "teshkam" with theirs twelve hundred. True, if we take the specific power (per 1 kg of weight), then the "teshki" have it higher, because the "teshki" are one and a half times lighter. Well, of course, it’s undersized. And historically, missile firing in the Abrams is not provided for. And why the heck it is necessary. Abrams is intended to crush all sorts of savages, natives, and where did they get helicopters and satellites? Abrams is good to everyone. This is how they write everywhere and everywhere. Only now there were some irresponsible ones, with independent thinking. Which are looking for all sorts of shortcomings, digging up. And then they dug up. To turn this agro-tower tower, even the power of fifteen hundred horses is not enough. Therefore, the tower on the main engine rotates very slowly. However, this is a drawback of all tanks with large turrets, even starting with the "tiger". To increase the rotation speed of the tower, the designers attached an additional diesel engine (DDM) behind the tower. And since DDM is not a vital element (if the DDM fails, the tower still rotates, only slowly), then the additional engine was not enclosed in the main armor the citadel, but simply covered it with a steel box with a wall one and a half centimeters thick from stray bullets and shrapnel.

                      Continuation of the monologue about Abrash.
                      So, self-thinking people, after having read several Sunnas from the Qur'an and praised Allah, they pick up a Soviet-made large-caliber machine gun DSHK.
                      Our grandfathers still beat the Fritz with Leningrad and Sevastopol with an anti-machine gun (colloquially “tar”). The DShK was adopted by the Red Army back in 1938, and over the course of these 70 years an unmeasured amount has been produced. "Tar" among the heavy machine guns - like a "Kalash" among the machine guns. The most massive, with a wide margin from competitors. Therefore, every self-respecting detachment of "jihad warriors" has this machine gun in service. As a rule, not one. Cheap and cheerful.
                      And the intrepid Mujahideen begin to beat from the "antediluvian" DShK through the additional engine of the ultra-modern "Abrams" armor-piercing incendiary bullets that reliably penetrate two-centimeter armor. DDM fails and lights up. Smoke enters the compartment where the "Negro-loader" is located. The black man is used to the clean air of his native Alabama and therefore jumps out of the tank with a cry of “Fuck you fucking motherfuckers !!!”, which we will not translate, for cultural people.
                      The Mujahideen do not like this either, because Sharia categorically against environmental pollution with bad words. Therefore, they begin to peel a black man from the “Kalash”, which they have one in each hand and one more “Kalash” behind the back for the Pontus. Despite the claims of “experts” that it is impossible to get anywhere from “Kalash”, they still end up in a black man. Let us return to the tank. The fire spreads to the main engine and the entire engine compartment lights up already. It’s already impossible to be in the tank from complete smoke and temperature rise and the whole crew jumps out of it shouting “Sucking cunts and assholes !!!”, which cultural people don’t use, and Muslims go into complete fury, for sacrilege. In short, the fate of the crew is unenviable. Which conclusion follows from this? In any environment, you can and should be a polite and well-mannered person. If the American tankers peacefully left the tank with their hands up and culturally said “Salam Aleikum,” no one would have touched them, because, according to the Sharia, to shoot an unarmed surrendered enemy is an unworthy cowardice for a jihad warrior. However, let us return to the tank. The fire spreads throughout the tank, the temperature reaches a critical point and an ammunition explosion occurs - 40 large-caliber shells.
                      I’ll also add that the ultra-modern composite armor of Abrams, which has no analogues in the world, any of our RPGs, starting from the 50s of release, easily flashes when it gets into the side projection of the tank from any range. (What the amers in Iraq saw with some surprise. They even naively assumed that some unknown enemy was supplying Iraqi partisans with some top-secret weapons unknown to military science.

                      However, only the most recent RPG modifications take this armor into the frontal projection. (RPG-manual anti-tank grenade launcher) Mujahideen do not have such yet. So the cunning Islam warriors come in from the side. And even from the rear.

                        Well, of course, they just can’t install anything on the VLD (80mm), since they will deprive the mech-water of the ability to visually control the movement, and mean the tank remained vulnerable ...

                        Yes, because the tank moves over rough terrain and these angles are when they are and when they are not. And the "tilt" of the armor is not a panacea for a long time, the shells just taught to "bite" the armor

                        Alas, no longer. Nothing lasts forever ... Modern “triggered” cores do not ricochet: when in contact with the armor, a mushroom head is formed at the front end of the core, acting as a hinge, and the projectile is turned perpendicular to the armor, shortening the path in its thickness.

At the same time, although there were no mountains, ravines, or jungle in the way of Proust, as in Ecuador, the entire air defense system, covering the directions along which the route of his plane ran and having dozens of radars of various ranges and regiments of air defense fighters, saw this aircraft only at the beginning and a very short time, and then lost, but could not find until he landed on Kr Square. So there is a radar in Ecuador, no radar in Ecuador no difference

    After landing, there was a fuel leak (fuel spilled 10 meters from the aircraft), more than 10 US troops approached the scene.


    According to an eyewitness, when the plane landed, white smoke flowed from the back of the car. By 6.00:XNUMX pm the plane was towed to the hangar. The causes of the incident that day were not identified.

    Using the fact that many manufacturers of electronics, not only household appliances, place orders in factories of the PRC is not a secret ... scandals with counterfeit microcircuits in the same US Army occurred more than once, and our space ships began to explore the depths of the ocean thanks to them. the same is not uncommon in access microchips for their contents embedded in the production process.

            Any person, position on any issue you don’t like, just call the troll and minus, say that this one person constantly changes nicknames. Are you fucking Well, to mention any foreign technology, especially NATO, it is taboo and is fraught with the stigma of a troll.

            You are just like insulted innocence ...

    This article draws on misinformation for Ecuadorian smugglers. A radar of this level can be destroyed; it will never break itself.

    Commander of the Armed Forces: Ecuador has completely lost its ground defense element

    The answer to the question is what is better to produce on our own or buy on the side.

    Let the Ukrainian Kolchuga be taken.
    The chain-mail complex consists of three stations. He is able to accurately determine the coordinates of ground and surface targets, their movement routes at a distance of up to 600 km in the depth of the territory and 150 km along the front, and for air targets flying at an altitude of 10 km - up to 800 km.

    Let the commander of Ecuador buy our equipment. Or is there no limit to stupidity? Gaddafi had old stuff, Hussein had it, and now Assad and Ahmadinejad have it. They think they are at the market, they can bargain. They'll eat you whole, American friends.

    The World Trade Organization needs to adopt a trade agreement in which it will oblige China to add one word to the information about the manufacturer (Made in China) - Attention or, Caution! Made in China.

    Deza 100%. wink
    Not a single military man will say out loud - “our country is left without radar coverage.” Anyone can get a doublet. And China will dragon and check how the neighbors will react and if the reaction is not correct, shit on the head with super parrots.
    But that’s why there are Chinese electronics all around and why the Americans are friends with China just like they are with us - they smile and smile, and they build around the base, the answer is in resources.

    Chinese goods are never reliable: my father bought a Japanese jigsaw, but it was made in China while working with plywood, after 5-6 minutes it started smoking. conclusion: they have all the goods g..but.

      Let me not fully support you. More than 15 years ago I bought a Phillips baby “balabolka” made in China? Believe it or not, it’s still alive, even the tape mechanisms are alive. I won’t say anything about the CD turntable. The device is fully operational and no one needs it, but the toad won’t let you throw it away, it starts to choke you. Most of our computers are made there. And if you are unlucky with the rotor, then it’s not fate. My drill/screwdriver machine has Russian markings, but it was made in China, it works like a bug. Advice, buy devices designed to last! If you need breaks from work, it says so in your passports, think about it!

    Isn't it these radars? It would be better if they bought it from our traffic cops for half the price.

    (conversation between Gandalf and Frodo "The Fellowship and the Ring")

    - Frodo, look carefully at the ring, what do you see?
    - Some inscriptions... Wait... Made in China!
    - That's what I was afraid of...
