China is not yet ready to confront our military, and every time we show our capabilities, it sets them back years in the development of weapons. Given that Iran had China’s superior equipment, like radar, they should not have been surprised by this attack. So what does this mean? China is selling a lot of lies and parading around weapons that can’t compare to the equipment our military uses. It is no wonder they try to steal our secrets because they don’t have entrepreneurs, but they do have an overwhelming amount of copycats. All IMO.

“China denounced the U.S.-Israeli attack on its regional ally Iran, calling Saturday’s missile strikes a violation of Iranian sovereignty and security.
In a statement, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said halt the military action to avoid escalation of a “tense situation.”
China also urged a resumption of dialogue and negotiation, along with renewed efforts to uphold peace and stability in the Middle East.
Iran and China share what is called a comprehensive strategic partnership. Tehran is a major purchaser of Chinese arms and military equipment, and China buys over 80% of Iran’s exported crude oil.
China is not expected to intervene in the conflict, as its military lacks the needed power projection capabilities.
Beijing operates a military base in Africa’s Djibouti at the south end of the Red Sea, where some 400 People’s Liberation Army marines are stationed.”
