Report: China Replacing Soldiers with Robots in Tibet Due to Poor Performance

The Chinese military is reportedly moving a large number of unmanned ground vehicles into the Tibetan plateau, taking over duties from ethnic Han soldiers in the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) who have trouble coping with the cold temperatures and thin air of Tibet.

A report from India’s Times Now News on Tuesday said over half of China’s robot vehicles are headed for Ladakh, the region where China is facing off against the Indian military over a disputed border.

Both China and India fortified their military presence in Ladakh after a deadly hand-to-hand battle in the Galwan river valley in June 2020. China’s buildup was more industrialized and technologically sophisticated, but also plagued from its early days by reports of Chinese soldiers having considerably more difficulty adapting to the Himalayas than their Indian counterparts.

The Chinese military is using robots in Tibet.

China has no battle hardened experienced troops. Given time, training, and equipment a good soldier can adapt to any environment.

Look at Iraq. Extreme heat and no air conditioning. Yet Americans ruled the day.
