You seem to dismiss the importance of radars and electronics in which China is undoubtedly ahead of Russia by many levels for eg.
As for the state of Chinese military electronic technology (including radar)? That notion is a disaster born of stereotypes and marketing hype; the reality you describe simply doesn't exist. It is merely a case of Western media—intent on attacking China and casting it as an adversary—forcibly elevating China to a level it hasn't actually reached. Since China lags behind the US and Russia in terms of hardware, this intangible, invisible "electronic technology" was seized upon and touted as a "unique" Chinese advantage. It is utterly baffling. The only scenario where such a claim might be somewhat plausible is if one conflates Taiwan and TSMC with "China," thereby arguing that Chinese radar and electronic capabilities *could* surpass Russia's.
But based on the capabilities of the Chinese mainland alone? Hardly.
In Chinese, this phenomenon is referred to as
'flattering someone to their downfall“捧杀”.
----------To kill someone by holding them up too high.
The fact is that, even today, China relies on direct Russian imports for critical systems—such as the K3 radar used in manned spaceflight and core target-acquisition radars for satellites and missiles.
The KJ-2000 airborne early warning aircraft, for instance, utilizes a design concept from the Beriev Design Bureau.
Russia has also consistently assisted China in establishing its missile defense systems.
The founder of Huawei—China's largest electronics, telecommunications, and software company—has personally attested that China's acquisition of 4G and 5G technologies stemmed almost entirely from young Russian mathematicians recruited by the firm. These individuals appeared to do nothing but play video games—shunning romance and leisure—while drawing annual salaries of $2 million, only to suddenly achieve a breakthrough in Western algorithms one day. (Just look at modern mathematics and programming competitions: whenever Russians participate, there is hardly any room left for other nations to shine.)

“We (Huawei) have a Russian scientist—a young man and a brilliant mathematician.
Just this morning, I asked my team if they could find him a girlfriend; the young man doesn't know how to date—he only knows math. He’s been with the company for over a decade, spending his days playing computer games, and we had no idea what he was actually doing. Our CTO—who manages a team of 50,000 people—even went to Moscow (to our R&D center) to see him in person, but the guy just said hello and walked away. When I personally presented him with an award, all he would say was "Mm," "Mm," "Mm."
He gave me three "Mms," and that was it; we had no clue what he’d been quietly working on all those years. Then, suddenly, he told me, "I’ve achieved a breakthrough in the algorithm for the transition from 2G to 3G." We immediately ran tests in Shanghai, and the results confirmed it—with that single achievement, we surged ahead of the rest of the world.”---------------Translation of the Original Text
Most people’s stereotypical understanding of "electronics" is shaped by consumer goods like color TVs and microwave ovens. Yet, aside from the fact that they run on electricity, radar systems and military equipment share virtually nothing in common with such household appliances.
Btw I have been seeing so many of your posts. You seem to have little to no confidence in Chinese weapons systems and a lot of confidence in Russian systems.
Personally, I started out as a fan of American weaponry, then became a proponent of Chinese weaponry driven by a sense of nationalism, and finally became a supporter of Russian weaponry.
This progression was an inevitability dictated by the objective accumulation of knowledge.
---------That is also why you can see me critiquing American and Chinese weaponry with such proficiency----------because I was once a fan of them myself and know their ins and outs like the back of my hand. I dare say that, compared to the average fan of American weaponry, my level of knowledge makes me far more qualified than 95% of them
China has spent billions and many decades developing weapons either though reverse engineering or domestic effort. Why do you think (in your opinion) that has yielded little?
There are gaps and chasms inherent in the very concept of "civilization." The industrial modernization that took place after 1949 merely scratched the surface; one never heard of any Chinese mathematicians or inventors emerging from that era. As for your final point—"why the results were so meager"—
-----------I don't quite understand it either; at the very least, the feat of consistently filtering through various options to select the absolute worst one for implementation-----------is something that, in my view, requires a considerable amount of talent.
It’s like a multiple-choice test with 100 questions, each having four options (A, B, C, D).
Even someone who knows absolutely nothing should still be able to guess correctly 25% of the time.
Yet, in China, the rate can drop as low as 10%—which is a truly astonishing talent.
