Come on indeed. The data support my previous posts. If the 'right' parts did not get to China that's too bad but the export data clearly shows Germany exported much aviation material to China. China often hoarded supplies rather than using them due to internal rivalries. I don't know if that is the case with the He 111's. They were basically poor early versions of that a/c palmed off on the CAF by the Germans. Please don't use such generalizations when factual data exists that is contrary. You may not know the facts but that is no reason to deny them.

You may wish to research details on exports from Germany to China before making sweeping assertions. I've given you the hints if you are open-minded enough to accept them.

I note you didn't challenge the assertion that Germany remained a major arms supplier in 1939 once I provided some data to that effect. Rest assured similar data exists with regard to aviation supplies. Believe what you will (or do the research yourself!).
