How terrifying is China's combat power! Russia's 200 km glide bomb uses a Chinese engine, which was purchased from an e-commerce platform

According to Russian media reports, Russia added a turbojet engine to the glide bomb, increasing its range from 62 miles (100 km) to 124 miles (about 200 km), thus comparable to short-range cruise missiles.

A 200 km glide bomb can greatly enhance Russia's long-range strike capability. The farther the glide bomb's range, the more significant its tactical and strategic advantages. The core is that the launch platform can conduct precise strikes safely outside the enemy's area, greatly enhancing survivability.

This puts greater pressure on Ukraine, requiring protection of deeper targets, compressing the warning and interception window. For Russia, long-range strike gives stronger battlefield initiative, allowing flexible selection of attack routes from multiple directions, and enabling deep strikes on key nodes behind the enemy (such as command centers and logistics hubs). According to Ukrainian media reports, the Russian Aerospace Forces launched 109 sorties of bombers in one day, dropping 268 glide bombs within 24 hours.

The reason why Russia's glide bomb has such a long range is because it uses a turbojet engine. This turbojet engine is the Chinese SW800Pro-Y type turbojet engine. And this powerful performance engine can be bought casually on Chinese e-commerce platforms.

You can see from this how terrifying China's combat power is. Neither Russia nor the United States have the ability to mass-produce turbojet engines at a vegetable-like cost, lacking highly automated production lines and mature supply chains. But for China, ordinary private enterprises can easily achieve this. And during wartime, could these turbojet engines sold on e-commerce platforms be continuously deployed to the battlefield?

Then think about it from another angle, how powerful must be the engines used by China's military glide bombs and drones!
