They do some things differently to us, but ultimately they want the same things everyone wants... to be safe and to earn a living in peace.
There is potential for growth and development, which means there is money to be made too.

Now that Iran became more important to China, she'll be sending advisors & troops there, incl. via Pakistan.
If Chinese get killed there, all hell will break loose in the SC Sea.
Can the US fight 2 major wars at the same time?

Would like Egypt on the other side stronger too, the more israel is squeezed the better, it has acted with impunity for far too long.
I don't think China will send any troops or equipment to Iran. Chinese are business people and they will chase the money. If the US gives China something they like(where the Chinese can make money), than China will back down.
If a full scale war happens with Iran(the US wants this but Iran does not)
than Iran can expect limited help from Russia(I don't think Russia will do anything big) and they won't get any help from China.
Footage from the Iranian exercise.
In the West, at east on paper & in many aspects in real life, they now have more rights than men; in the US with its all volunteer military, females can serve in combat units; in Russia & China, they volunteer, in Israel & NK, they r drafted- for them, it's not a right, but an obligation.it will be amusing to see all the women demanding equal rights.... all women should be put on the draft right? Or is that a right they are not interested in?

The rumours out there now is that Iran will push ahead with S-400 and Su-35 purchases for delivery as quickly as possible.

To have a real fighting chance against zionists, Iran ought to get the SU-57 and T-14 Armata. But whatever Tehran seeks, it would be tough to pay for the quality and quantity needed. As part of the recent deal, isn't China supposed to help Iran develop its own weapons? That may be better economically but dunno if Iran can produce top of the line systems like those mentioned.

Not enough.
Better s-300VM/S-350 and lot of mig-35 + pantsirs.
T-14 and tanks in general are useless for them against US/Israel. They won't see any merkava on their border.

Academic question. There are none to buy. Not many Mig-35 either.
Given the geography tanks have limited use, especially for an invader.

The Russian military doesn't have a single production Su-57 and only a few T-14 Amartas and you are suggesting that what there is goes to Iran? Get real.

Iran already has a good deterrent and that is their missiles, they can hit anyone in the Middle East and even further.
There is no point for Iran to get fighter jets or anything like that.
