This is the purportedly off planet organization that I was interacting and disagreeing with when I almost lost an eye in a beam weapon shooting that left that side of my face permanently scarred. These are 100 foot diameter spherical scout ships in flight that stand 10 stories high when landed on the ground.

Good job China improving and upgrading the froggy Super Puma at a fraction of a cost and far more reliable.
…..or an EH 101 Merlin or an NH-90.
What the Chinese is that save the huge R&D costs, they look at the most feasible NATO cunts weaponry and then incrementally increase its capability for their own needs. The Zionist parasites stole the F-16 and tried to clone than into a “Lavi” but the Jew motherfuckers are too stupid and could not produce it, so sold the technology to PRC for a few million bucks, so the Chinese looked at the need for 3.5 gen fighter bomber and came up with a very respectable and capable Chengdu J-10, They have done the same with Russian SU-30 and turned it into J-11 which at par with SU-35 Super Flanker. I have been to their Chengdu aviation hub and they have literally thousands of very capable and innovative design and manufacturing engineers working on hundreds of cloning projects. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/642e273c0eaee04f63def6e14895cf8f6fbab6daa1ead42f04fb829de848e01c.jpg J-11

Now China needs a heavy lift like the MIL MI-26.
It is working on cloning a froggy failed super Frelon. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/0b287f09e9d18da94cc7e3e4121efb09c1a3397b6d8b9b08a06579731fe83178.jpg
The Z-18 is a heavy modified evolution from the Z-8 who was a ‘licenced’ copy of the Aerospatiale SA 321Ja Super Frelon.
