• Cost: 900
• Built at: Supply Center
• Requires: -

Rather than relying on slow and inefficient Supply Trucks for her resource gathering, Leang employs airborne Supply Helicopters. In addition to being faster and being able to bring in $450 per load, the Supply Helicopter is able to transport a small amount of weaponry in its hull. Up to four soldiers or a single armoured vehicle can fit neatly into the chopper, allowing for airdrops in remote territories.

• Cost: 1400
• Built at: Airfield
• Requires: -

The MiG direct engagement aircraft is the backbone of the Chinese air forces. Leang's version of it uses Black Napalm and Afterburners by default, making it more effective against all targets. The firestorms it creates can be made even more powerful with the White Napalm upgrade. It can also be upgraded with MiG Armor.

The KA-50 Blackshark attack and recon helicopter is a versatile aircraft. Initially it is not very powerful but it can be upgraded with either twin gattling cannons for inflicting even more damage, or a recon upgrade for battlefield intelligence and protection.

Assault Upgrade

• Cost: 800

Upgrades the Blackshark with two heavy triple barrelled gattling cannons, which can inflict serious damage against tanks and infantry alike. The damage output from those heavy cannons can be increased by beetle targeting computers.

Recon Upgrade

• Cost: 500

Upgrades the Blackshark with recon gear, increases the sensor reach and gives it the ability to detect stealthed foes, as well as ECM dishes to protect itself and nearby units from missiles.

• Requires: Propaganda Center, Phoenix Bomber generals ability (rank 1)

The Phoenix Bomber is one of the most effective aerial bombers. The kinetic explosion created by this Chinese black project will throw infantry into the air like they were ragdolls. The electromagnetic weapon carried within the bomb is its main virtue - with it, the Phoenix can shut down tank columns leaving them totally vulnerable to your MiGs and artillery. It can be upgraded with Stingray Missiles which do more damage and home in on targets, unlike the Phoenix' standard bombs.
