Desperate*. Helicopters fail unexpectedly even when manufactored by reliable producers. China has a well earned reputation of cutting corners and putting low quality components in their products. They are looking to export these and I cannot see anyone but third world dictators being clients.

Ah yeah I know about it. Basically China "uses" Russian tech and then build's "their own" versions of it. Then again 1,2 billion Chinese, so a failure/crash and a lost pilot isn't that big a loss.

If you want good helicopters you should buy straight from the Russians.

Is english a second language for you? I will try to be more precise if so. Or not comment.

I'm actually Dutch yeah, but my English is excellent. The thing that threw me off was the two typos in: " clintel desoerate".

Please do keep commenting, as you see if anything is unclear I'm happy to ask for context.
