China Electronics Technology Group has touted its JY-26 radar system that boasts a 500 km detection range, metric wave anti-stealth capability, and 3D long-range warning radar. However, by early 2025, under the night skies of Isfahan, Iran, it was proven this was nothing but empty words.

Gatestone Institute senior fellow Gordon Chang weighs in on the China-U.S. trade deal, the NATO chief’s warning about China’s military and more during ‘Mornings with Maria.’

China is quietly building a fleet of warships that not only sail smart, they think smart, especially when they’re in action. These vessels are more than heavily armed platforms. They’re part of a strategic revolution. They no longer rely on vulnerable, foreign-controlled systems like GPS. Instead, they operate with quantum navigation, AI battle networks, and autonomous decision-making frameworks, and that’s what’s keeping U.S. defense planners awake at night.Welcome back to Race to Space, your go-to channel for decoding military technology and peering into the very real future of global warfare. Today, we’re diving into something that may sound like it belongs in a sci-fi novel… but it’s already being tested on China’s open seas. This is the rise of AI-powered, quantum-navigated warships, a game-changing fusion of advanced physics and machine intelligence that could render traditional naval tactics obsolete.

In the early hours of June 13, Israel’s F-35 fighter jets took off quietly, with B-2 stealth bombers flying in formation at high altitudes. Tomahawk missiles were launched from the sea in rapid succession, targeting Iran’s critical infrastructure—nuclear facilities, radar stations, underground command posts, and air defense nodes. For 72 hours, Iran’s military capabilities collapsed, and its command centers became paralyzed. The entire Middle East waited for Beijing’s response, but Beijing remained silent.The Foreign Ministry issued its usual scripted response: “China is deeply concerned” and “opposes violations of Iran’s sovereignty.” Xinhua quietly relayed the message, without strength or impact. On June 14, Wang Yi spoke with the Iranian foreign minister, using the phrase “clearly condemn,” which sounded like an attempt to show support. But less than 24 hours later, Wang Yi spoke with Israel’s foreign minister, and his tone softened dramatically. He merely said “opposes the use of force” and didn’t dare to utter the word “condemn.”Join this channel to get access to perks:

Once upon a time, “Long Live China-Pakistan Friendship” was a diplomatic slogan used by Chinese state media to spread across the globe. From helping build dams and high-speed rail projects to jointly developing fighter jets, Pakistan has long been China’s most trusted “iron brother” and a core customer for military exports.But this time, Pakistan has not chosen China.On May 29, Pakistan’s second “Babur-class” corvette, PNS Khaibar, ordered from Turkey, completed port testing and left Istanbul, officially starting sea trials. This was not an ordinary ship trial; it represented a $1.5 billion strategic shift: four corvettes were all ordered from Turkey, leaving Beijing with nothing.What’s even more ironic is that Pakistan has indeed used Chinese ships in the past. Back in 2017, they introduced four 054A/P class frigates from China—larger, more powerful, and delivered more quickly, at a cheaper price. But this time, they chose the inferior, assembled “Babur-class”. So, the question arises: why did China lose to an “assembled product” when their ships had better performance, lower prices, and quicker delivery?

How did China develop the largest navy in the world? Turns out they had some help…
