Recent developments in global military technology highlight the increasing use of cost-effective and specialized equipment in modern conflicts. Iran’s Shahed-136 drones have become a significant factor in aerial warfare, utilizing civilian-grade components to provide a low-cost alternative to traditional cruise missiles. Meanwhile, China has advanced its amphibious capabilities with the ZBD-05, a vehicle designed for rapid ship-to-shore transitions. These technologies reflect a shift toward high-volume, specialized machinery designed to navigate modern defenses and facilitate complex maritime landing operations in contested environments.
- The Shahed-136 is a loitering munition that functions as a one-way attack drone, designed to overwhelm air defense systems through high-volume deployments.
- Constructed with off-the-shelf electronics and a simple internal combustion engine, the Shahed-136 costs significantly less than standard guided missiles.
- China’s ZBD-05 amphibious fighting vehicle is engineered for rapid deployment from transport ships, achieving water speeds of up to 28 kilometers per hour.
- The ZBD-05 utilizes a specialized planning hull and water jets to maintain stability and speed while transitioning from sea to land.
- Assessments of modern armored warfare indicate that vehicles like the M2 Bradley remain essential for protecting infantry against evolving drone and artillery threats.

Can it fly without the engine? Cause last time it was about to die due to the heat it generates
1,Iranian already hit a F35.
2, involved in Taiwan means ww3, WSJ is insane!
China supplying weapons to Iran and North Korea
Lockheed lost the 6th Gen contract because Boeing needed emergency funding from the Government to bail out their significant losses since 2017's greed killed hundreds in their plane crashes.
Hey WSJ team, instead of re-uploading or reposting old videos, please consider making fresh content! It would be amazing if you could travel to Israel to do an in-depth interview with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, or head to Europe for an insightful conversation with Mark Rutte. New, on-the-ground coverage would be so much more engaging than recycled uploads!
It's the wrong time to do this kind of PR.
All this technology and Iran is winning without an Air Force. This is a waste of tax payers dollars. Cheap lethal unmanned drones swarms is the future. You can throw that F35 away. Iran has already hit one and made it run away and have a hard landing so we know the stealth claim is bs.
How much did they pay you?
WSJ got paid heavy for this videos
In no universe can America beat China. America was just DEFEATED by Iran! Too many Americans live in some Rambo fantasy land. America has lost every war since 1945. America sucks at war. And now, China leads the world.
Thanks to Iran we know what's possible 😂
Trying to play catch up.
WSJ really need to stop talking about US going to war with China. US spent 13.000 munitions (Tomahawks, JASSMs, ATACMS, PRSM missiles, glide bombs) just in 5 weeks. It's going to take years to rebuild those stocks. This was a huge loss and a mockery. Taiwan invasion would probably end the same as Russian invasion of Ukraine and US attack on Iran…a stalemate and a strategic defeat.
China will be first to deploy CCAs. Probably with stolen R&D from the US.
The US spending billions to defeat drones that cost a few thousand…brilliant.
6:02 bro can't wait to destroy the world
Small market as Trump is the only buyer. The traditional markets of former allies are buying elsewhere.
How those aircraft and drone flying from when the aircraft carrier blown up before they can get closer to taiwan..
BS!
China builds,USA bombs
wsj has no mention of their missile breaking an f35 down?
China has hypersonic cruise missiles. You can launch these as a surprise attack on mainland China. But they're not going to have a aircraft carrier to comeback to.
save the money on F35 ,..get drones, better yet fight with Lego memes, Iran has taught the west well
Star Wars like war vs logic reasoning defense systems
Why do you repost old cut-to-piece vidoes
Delusional
Give me a break! you can't even defeat Iran.
Till it meets a real enemy. Now, That's propaganda
is they aware that their f35 . got shot down by a 3rd tier country's air defence system
China has 500x the manufacturing capacity of Iran. 10x the amount of missiles, 10x the tech….
US real enemy are China and Pakistan
15:05 water mines don't discriminate don't matter what you got…. mines do trigger
The US will never win a single war with this kind of "high tech" weapon. cheap AK47, cheap drone will put the US millitary right back to the negotiatioin table, if they can afford to keep the long war.
Spend alot of money and don't mean is the most advanced
F35 the best fighter as MS Flight simulation
But
Always alywas
Malfunction..
Ground…😊
🇺🇸🇮🇱
Alex and Roger,
Here is the plain truth as I see it.
First of all I love all our leaders. Please help uplift respectfully President Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu Israel’s prime minister. This is not some sudden issue that appeared out of nowhere. The Iranian regime has built its identity around hostility to America and Israel since the birth of the Islamic Republic in 1979. The Tehran hostage crisis was not a misunderstanding. It was one of the earliest and clearest signs of what that regime was willing to do, and the United States formally designated Iran a State Sponsor of Terrorism in 1984.
What matters now is that this is no longer just about words or chants. The nuclear side is real. The IAEA has reported Iranian enrichment at 60 percent, and recent reporting based on IAEA figures says Iran had enough 60 percent enriched uranium that, if taken further, could be enough for around 10 nuclear weapons. That is not a theory. That is the kind of fact people need to understand clearly.
The other point people need to stop sugarcoating is this. Earlier deals may have bought time, but they did not permanently remove the threat. Even the 2015 deal had major time limited restrictions, which is exactly why so many people believed it delayed the danger instead of ending it.
President Trump is now back in office, and Prime Minister Netanyahu is dealing with the same reality from Israel’s side. This moment calls for strength, clarity, and no illusions. If there is diplomacy, it has to be real diplomacy with real enforcement and real surrender of the capabilities that create the threat. Anything short of that is just another delay tactic.
People can debate tone all day long, but they cannot honestly debate the pattern, the history, or the danger.
Respectfully,
Joey Nunley
