He may not have expected that the S400 air defense system sold to the Eastern powers a decade ago is now almost silent in the hands of the Eastern powers.
During the years of Putin's leadership, the Russian military industry has been the dual gripper of diplomacy and economy, under Western sanctions, arms sales and energy have become an important source of Russian foreign exchange, and advanced equipment such as the S-400 is also a key tool for his pushing the geographical pattern, can both earn money, but can draw close to allies and counterbalance opponents, as in the year when it was sold to Turkey, it was hard to tear the mouth inside NATO.
Ten years ago, in 2014, China and Russia signed the S-400 combination, both sides had considerations that Russia had just experienced an economic downturn, and military-industrial enterprises urgently needed orders to survive.
We are in a critical period of national defense modernization. Some high-tech and cutting-edge technologies are difficult to break through for the time being, and importing is a realistic choice.
Putin dared to sell out the little girl who had just been in the Russian army for two or three years, both in terms of cooperation sincerity and not much of the following variable.
But now this system is almost silent here, unlike Turkey, which makes a fuss every day.
It's really not that the system fails. The US military admits that the S-400 is extremely threatening.
To put it bluntly, when we buy equipment, we never copy it and use it. After accepting the first batch of systems in 2018, we did not wantonly expose it. The core reason is that we have integrated it into our own combat system.
We have always adhered to independent R&D and import parallel, and after getting the S-400 we are definitely thinking about technology integration.
At the beginning, Russia was worried that its unique technology would be copied. Now, in our air defense system, domestic equipment is becoming more and more useful. The S-400 has long become a part of the entire network, so there is no need to talk about it separately.
In addition, air defense deployment is a military secret. The lower the profile, the more it means that it is functioning normally. We can't talk about it everywhere as if we are exposing our family.
If Putin is thinking of this, taste estimates are quite complicated, when the sale of equipment is win-win, now we rely on our own technology to live, but let this "star equipment" has no exposure.
Behind this is actually the change in national strength. From the need for introduction to the ability to independently integrate, the silent S-400 just hides the answer to development.
Of course, all the above are personal opinions. If you have any different opinions on this, you can leave a message in the comment section to discuss!!!
