$123 million per drone is very expensive. More expensive than the F-35 individually.

A few examples of China employing illegal, coercive, and dangerous tactics in the South China Sea. Bullying behaviors are also applied against Taiwan, Japan, Bhutan, India, Mekong nations, Australia, etc. China's "rise" has become a true threat to many.

Bullying behaviors are also applied against Taiwan, Japan, Bhutan, India,
Hypocrisy on the high seas. Maybe the 50 Chinese trawlers fishing off the coast of Tohoku, including Fukushima, on a single day earlier this year just didnโt get the seafood ban memo. If the world needed further evidence that Chinaโs import ban on Japanese seafood has nothing to do with science and safety and everything to do with coercion and competition, this is it. More hypocrisy with typically Chinese characteristics.
