Paging little Timmy Walz

What is Chinese for "What do you MEAN the fucking radar and the fucking missiles DON"T WORK??  Are you SHITTING ME??"

I asked Grok for a list of countries who China peddled their radar and missile systems to:

Over the last 10 years (approximately 2016–2025), China has emerged as a significant exporter of advanced missile and radar systems, focusing on affordable options with fewer political restrictions compared to Western or Russian suppliers. Its primary customers include close allies and countries diversifying arms sources, with exports often involving variants like the HQ-9/FD-2000 series (long-range surface-to-air missiles) and associated radars.Key Missile System Exports

• HQ-9 series (including export variants like FD-2000, HQ-9B, HQ-9BE, HQ-9P): Long-range air defense systems capable of engaging aircraft, cruise missiles, and some ballistic threats.
  • Pakistan — Major recipient, including customized HQ-9P and HQ-9BE variants for integrated air defense.
  • Egypt — Acquired HQ-9B systems in recent years (confirmed around 2025).
  • Azerbaijan — Received HQ-9BE, marking entry into the South Caucasus region (deliveries/preparations noted around 2025).
  • Algeria — Imported surface-to-air missiles, likely including HQ-9 variants.
  • Morocco — Recent HQ-9BE acquisitions.
  • Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan — Earlier deliveries of FD-2000/HQ-9 systems in the 2010s, with ongoing integration.
  • Other mentions include potential or reported sales to Serbia (FK-3, related to HQ-22) and interest from Iraq, though not all confirmed as complete transfers.
• Other missiles: Limited confirmed exports of offensive systems like anti-ship cruise missiles (e.g., YJ-12/CM-302 variants) in this period, though Algeria acquired YJ-12B coastal defense versions around 2024. Shorter-range systems (e.g., FN-6 MANPADS) went to Pakistan and others, but focus here is on major missile/radar-integrated platforms.

Key Radar System ExportsChina exports air defense radars (e.g., YLC-series, JY-series) often bundled with missile systems or as standalone for surveillance and fire control. These have gone to at least 23 countries globally, including:

• Pakistan → Advanced radars integrated with HQ-9 and other systems.
• Egypt → Recent deals for sophisticated radars alongside HQ-9B.
• Venezuela → Various surveillance and anti-stealth radars (e.g., JYL-1, JY-27).
• Other recipients → Pakistan, Egypt, Venezuela, and likely Algeria, Nigeria, and Middle Eastern states as part of broader packages.

China's exports in this category remain concentrated in Asia (especially Pakistan, accounting for ~60-80% of recent arms imports from China), Africa, and select Middle Eastern/South Caucasus states. Sales support Beijing's geopolitical goals, such as energy security and influence in regions with U.S./Russian competition. Data draws from SIPRI trends (China's global share ~5-10% in recent years) and open-source reports; exact details can be opaque due to China's non-membership in regimes like MTCR.
