Operation Zet was a secret operation in 1937–1941 by the Soviet Union to provide military and technical resources to the Republic of China as a part of the Sino-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact .[1]
The operation aimed to help China resist the invasion of the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II .[2] It was part of the Soviet anti-imperialist effort worldwide.[2] In addition, the Soviet Union and the Empire of Japan had a longstanding rivalry that sometimes resulted in open hostilities .
Under Operation Zet, the Soviets provided China with warplanes, bombers, tanks, antiaircraft weapons, ammunition, and transport vehicles.[3] The operation began with the deployment of 225 combat aircraft, along with Soviet volunteers .[4]
The operation was carried out in secret to maintain plausible deniability and to resist the expansionist efforts of Japan to establish itself as the pre-eminent political force in East Asia . Under the name of Soviet Air Force Volunteers, Soviet troops fought in the defense of Nanjing , Wuhan , Nanchang , and Chongqing . Over 250 Soviet volunteer pilots and 885 aircraft were provided to China. The aircraft included Polikarpov I-15 , Polikarpov I-16 , and Polikarpov I-153 .[1]
