Russia and China are now in possession of some of the finest weapons and weapons systems in the world that would make the American weapons and weapons systems looked dated and obsolete. The overhyped F35s have yet to face real battle against the Russian and Chinese equivalents. All the Americans could crow about is on paper, claiming superiority here and there on a sick aircraft that has loads of unsolved problems. As the Ukraine War falls into pieces, the Americans may be forced to use the questionable F35s against the Russians Sus and Migs. Then all the fictitious claims would fall apart when the F35s start to fall from the sky.
China has even developed several advanced sixth generation fighters and bombers. And China's anti ship missiles, China's laser anti aircraft and anti drone systems are top notch, the best available. But many of these advanced weapon systems are not for sale in case they fall into the hands of the American terrorists that have run out of ideas and unable to produce anything of real value except hyping them up on papers. The best example of the declining American military technology is NASA. Once touted and made the world to believe that it possessed the most advanced space technology, has been downgraded, delegated to an irrelevant and obsolete organisation with nothing to show. NASA's main job to try to impress the world that it is still around and doing something useful, is to use photoshop to churn out images of space, claiming all kinds of discovery with fabricated images and nothing more. NASA even dares to claim a probe that was dead and lost for decades is back, alive and kicking and sending data from the edges of the universe. This is first grade Hollywood fiction for movie goers. Fiction and nothing else. Its funds have been slashed for being unproductive and technologically backward, and with all its lies of having rockets to the moon being exposed as fakes. So, what else can NASA do but use computer images to fake that they are in the forefront of space technology, looking into outer space, to the extreme universe, like the imaginations of juveniles and their fantasies.
The advancement in science and technology and in weapon systems now allowed the Russians and Chinese to start a new military weapon business called lease and play. Countries with the money but unable to purchase advanced weapons and weapons systems can send their men to China or Russia to lease war machine and play with them to their hearts content, for as long as they want, as long as they can afford to pay, even for their men to station permanently in Russia or China. They can even claim to own these weapons and weapons systems as theirs for the lease duration but cannot take them home.
This can become a lucrative source of income for the Russians and Chinese, like letting boys and girls to play in the games arcades or amusement parks. Move aside computer games creators, this is real wargames with real weapons and weapons systems and only those with deep pockets can play, to satisfy their egos, to be able to touch real advanced weapons and pretend that they own them.
