It’s official: China cannot produce new jet engines and warships for a long time to come

There is little denying the fact about how fragile the Chinese weapons industry is. The whole Chinese weapons industry is based on two facets: one, stealing technology from countries like Russia, Israel, and all that they can lay their hands on, and two, mass-producing weapons based on stolen weapons tech. While this may have been a viable method, given the increasing international isolation, Beijing has become incapable of producing any new jet engines and warships.

According to a new analysis from a US think tank, China’s reliance on high-tech imports and projected workforce shortages in the next decade are two major impending weaknesses for the country’s defence industry. Researchers at the Rand Corporation stated that additional flaws included a lack of transparency in the vast state-owned conglomerates.

The crippling dependence

In various areas, including education, raw materials, advanced components, and intellectual property, China is believed to be dependent on the US and its allies, according to the research. According to the paper, China is reliant on the United States and its allies for five minerals required by the defence sector. According to the research, China is also reliant on Russia, Ukraine, and, France for aircraft and naval engines, which accounted for the majority of Chinese arms imports between 2015 and 2020.

The report “Assessing Systemic Strengths and Vulnerabilities of China’s Defence Industrial Base” was commissioned by the US Congress and completed in October 2021. It clearly lays bare the vulnerabilities of Beijing’s military, given it cannot produce any new jet engines and warships in the face of increasing competition with almost all world powers.

China’s failures in military technology and tech theft

Because the defence industry is at the heart of Russia’s economic growth and foreign policy, it is carefully guarded. Yet, according to research published last year by Boston-based cybersecurity technology firm Cybereason, a threat actor suspected of acting on behalf of Chinese State-sponsored interests was discovered targeting a Russian defence contractor working on nuclear submarine designs for the Russian Navy. Not only this, many such instances have been recorded over the past many years.

According to the South China Morning Post, military analysts in China think that the Communist nation’s ambitions to arm its most advanced fighter jet with hi-tech weapons have not been able to become a reality because of its underpowered engines. You see, Chinese engineers have struggled for years to produce engines powerful enough to allow the J-20 to reach its peak performance and match the likes of the US F-22.

In such a situation, how can they think of a military-industrial complex that can be independent and confident enough to build quality tech on its own? The fact is that Beijing is at odds with all the countries it has sought for help with providing components and technological know-how. Be it Ukraine, Russia, France, and other US allies due to XI Jinping’s larger brutish foreign policy.

In the next ten years, dropping birth rates and a diminishing workforce, according to the report, might harm China’s economy and defence sector growth, with evidence that the defence industry may struggle to attract and retain educated people. All in all, losing allies, business partners and a stagnated weapons industry will make sure that China cannot produce new jet engines and warships for a long time to come.

    What a lot of bull shit this article is.
    Highly biased and without any research or knowledge and just based on assumptions and speculations.
    I usually do not comment on such articles but this is the worst crap I have ever seen so was forced to write a few lines.

      Moreover, because they have stolen all that tech, now are building indigenous engines for their J-20 that is currently in mass production. And their are finishing touches on their lates WS-15 and WS-17 engines to power natively their J-20 and J35 naval stealth fighters.
      This article is the living tombstone of the mental indigency of its writer.
      Long life to stupidity. Let’s go Biden!

    It’s not a matter of producing an exact clone and hope that it performed like the original! It takes a long time to create, develop and test a new jet engine that is reliable and easy to repair and maintain. Same goes with ship building. In addition to the clone, you have to have a highly skilled operators to help run the clone. Trained operators can not be clone like a piece of machinery! Operators need time to train and develop. Not everyone can be trained into a competent operator. The U.S. and its “allies” must keep their “secrets”/IP with the utmost care! A glaring reminder was the forgotten “luggage” left behind at the airport by the company that developed the tech-the infra-red sensor that is used in heat seeking missiles. With a six-months’ period the Russian was able to make their own version after their agent picked up our “toy” at the airport!

      You are selling crap. The infrared senzor technology got in russian hands during the Vietnam war when a misile hit a Mig 15 and failed to explode.

    I couldn’t stop laughing when I read this. It’s true that China has been cloning existing weapon systems of other nations and they still do. But the author shows a clear bias and totally underestimating the capabilities of Chinese defense and heavy industries.

    I’m not a fan of CCP. But have you been living under a rock all this time not to know that they were able to improve jet engine development recently with WS-10C that provides thrust vectoring and although WS-15 is behind schedule. Also their navy is growing at an alarming rate and producing more ships outmatched by all other nations.

    And finally ‘dropping birth rate’ is going to impact every developed country in next decade not only China.

      Other countries rely abd thrive off of immigration to keep their population and workforce numbers. China is xenophobic and has slave labor, which in itself lowers the capabilities of its workforce abd quality, though not quantity.

      If true that they are stagnant or facing stagnation then this might be the incentive to push them to war. Nothing solves economic crisis for a country like it. Or innovation.

    Typically a biased and fabricated article. Probably and Indian funded lobby.
    China has became the most advanced tech country. It has sabotaged CIA network which costed 40 casualties of its assets.
    Their 6G and hypersonic research tech is on the rise. Stop living under the political BS and get out of the caves.

    China cannot build warplanes and warships? Of course they can’t. The Pentagon is stupid to think that there is a good chance that the US Navy will be defeated in a war against China in the Taiwan Straits. After all, the author of this piece knows so much more than the Pentagon. The ignorant Argentineans were conned into buying Chinese jet fighters, of course they were. The Chinese Space Station is a hoax, and they didn’t manage to send a probe to Mars either. China is just a paper tiger, whose ICBMs and hypersonic weapons will be shot down by ABM systems that India doesn’t manufacture. Sure, friend. You go on believing that.

    China has achieved with the manufacturing of Jet Engine with the ‘Break Through Technologies’ aquired from Ukraine. Ukraine Scientists had released informations to the Chinese Engineers to utilise Raw Metal Rhinium Alloy, which withstand extremely high temperature, to manufacture the Afterburner Blades.
    Isreal had also released more Stealth Technologies for structuring the Jet Fighter Planes to the China, after breakdown of America Economy Poor Management.
    Now China is mass manufacturing new Jet Engines WS-15 and are replacing most of the Jet Fighters Engines.
    China has achieve the Break-through of Jet Engines construction plus utilising Reverse Technologies to produce most powerful trust than the American Fighters F35..
    Praise be to China having Young Intelligence Brains and Hardworking Nation.
    Actually, the building of the Jet Engines can be done by reading a good book and committed to further Hardworking Researches.
    China had sent 900,000 Students to study Science and Engineering in America thereby nothing is impossible to achieve by the Young Intelligence Chinese Brains and sometimes, is Common Sense to achieve anythings.

    I keep hearing about how China is an aging population. While that is true, only 11.9% of their population is 65+, while compared to 16% of US. Isn’t the problem of again population more concerning in America? Yet I’ve barely heard a whisper about America’s aging population.
