Btw, did you know a "Made in China" mobile phone has 80%+ of its components imported from outside China?


Yet, the Chinese never degrade and disparage themselves as "we only assemble, we don't manufacture, we are a failure."


Such self-degrading behavior is an Indian thing due to low self-esteem and easy programming by political and geopolitical propaganda.

No 2? How did we creep up the list to no 2? All I have been reading the last few months is all the Randy crying about some (a lot) of our drones using Chinese parts.

We have Ambekar talking about drones before GTA VI

Regarding a certain company about which i had an emotional outbreak.
The U A S are leavened on questionable sub components sources from not so friendly nation across the border.

Flight controller is 'Indian' but oh wait that thing is just a repackaged COTS component.

Entire UI and pipeline is just open source stuff that has more backdoors and holes than Huawei

And that what I have been talking. We need to seriously deep dive into Indian Drone COTS manufacturer to see if its really IDDM or CDDMRII(Chinese Design Developed and Manufactured Relabeled In India)
