Russia training Chinese troops in drone warfare

Russia trained Chinese military personnel in the use of a new generation of jet-powered drones during joint military exercises this month, the Telegraph reported Friday. The exercises emphasized coordinating drone swarms to relay targeting data to ground forces to strike with attack drones and robotic vehicles. Alessandro Arduino of the Royal United Services Institute said, “China is gaining access to a kind of capital, a virtual capital that Russia is accumulating: wartime expertise. Russia is looking to trade this wartime expertise with its partners, and this includes drones, remote warfare, trench assaults, underground warfare and so on.” Russia and China’s military coordination is building an alliance that biblical prophecy says will have a profound global impact.
