- Leaked documents confirm Russia is training and equipping Chinese airborne forces with advanced assault tactics, hybrid warfare strategies and covert operations—indicating Beijing's potential preparations for an invasion of Taiwan.
- Russia has supplied China with 37 BMD-4M amphibious assault vehicles, 11 Sprut-SDM1 anti-tank guns and 11 BTR-MDM troop carriers—enough to equip a full PLA battalion. Russian instructors are also training Chinese paratroopers in high-altitude drops using the "Dalnolyot" system for clandestine insertions.
- Analysts note China is adopting Russia's Crimea-style tactics (unmarked forces seizing airfields) and integrating cyber warfare, drone swarms and electronic deception—methods tested in Ukraine—to overwhelm Taiwan's defenses.
- Given Taiwan's rugged coastline, China may prioritize airborne assaults to seize airfields and logistical hubs before mass landings. Russian command systems and maintenance hubs in China suggest long-term collaboration to enhance PLA combat power.
- The leaks reveal a deepening "quasi-alliance" where Russia provides battlefield expertise while China supplies dual-use tech and economic support. NATO must counter this synergy before Taiwan becomes the next flashpoint.
Leaked documents obtained by the hacker group Black Moon reveal that Russia is actively training and equipping Chinese airborne forces in advanced assault tactics, hybrid warfare and covert operations—raising concerns over Beijing's potential preparations for an invasion of Taiwan.
The cache of internal papers, verified by Kyiv's Center for Defence Reforms and London's Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), details Russian hardware transfers, joint training programs and command system integration dating from 2023 to late 2024. This deepening military partnership, described by experts as a "quasi-alliance," underscores the growing strategic alignment between Moscow and Beijing amid escalating tensions with the West.
Taiwan's rugged coastline makes amphibious landings risky, leading analysts to believe Beijing may prioritize airborne assaults to seize airfields and logistical hubs. The leaked plans describe Russian-trained Chinese units disrupting air defenses and logistics before massed landings—a tactic Ukraine countered effectively in 2022 by destroying runways during Russia's failed Hostomel airport assault.
The problem with this article is, it talks of Russian aggression. I have a problem with this concept. Who had 16 bioweapon labs funded by a monkey in their country? Who broke the Minsk agreement? Who killed 14,000 Russian speaking civilians between 2014 and 2022? Who murdered civilians when they invaded the Kirsk area. Who blew up the gas pipeline to German industry? The list is endless. And the final whammy who is going to supply long range missiles that will start ww3.
