China 2025 Victory Day Parade (preparations, new equipment)

[DWG]

The Indians couldn't cross over the Himalayas, no? Let alone with a numerically and technologically superior PLAAF engaging them

The immediate concern China has with India is back-and-forth pushing over a few tens of square miles of territory high in the Himalayas.

However India is also extremely well placed to interdict China's Belt and Roads initiative to Pakistan, the Gulf and Africa and Europe; and has ongoing border conflicts with China's primary client, Pakistan. The Indian Navy would be operating in its own waters, PLAN at the extreme end of a very dodgy supply line.

And if India were sufficiently pissed-off I've no doubt they could encourage significant unrest in Tibet, which China is extremely sensitive about.

TLDR: it's not really conventional land warfare China has to worry about.

After this military reform, it is estimated that the parade phalanx will also change after there are more branches of the army.
Based on the original strategic support forces, the military aerospace forces, cyberspace forces, information support forces, and joint logistics support forces have been further developed.

 

[SUPER=BUG]

At present, these tanks are indeed in active service.

 

[Tomboy]

First good pictures of the new tank

 

[SUPER=BUG]

It's really good, and there are additions.

 

[Hull down]

That MBT is packed with sensors. Could be optionally manned.

 

[Mr.T]

That MBT is packed with sensors. Could be optionally manned.

Maybe,but it has an unmanned turret with APS ,unmanned turret also means synthetic vision is needed so a bunch of cameras, other sensors seem to be radar for APS and laser irradiation sensors

 

[mokahete]

?

 

[yeetmahboi]

It's just a hatch, could be for anything.

 

[mokahete]

What I'm asking is what are those 4 cylindrical objects inside it?

Reload for APS?

 

[yeetmahboi]

Those are too haphazardly stocked to be reloads. I figure, more likely those are simply pop-up smoke cans.

Well then, this put into question what those horizontally placed small tubes are.
3 on each side.
Earlier I assumed them to be smoke launchers, but yeah those pop up cans do seem more appropriate size for smoke launchers.

 

[Ainen]

?

Same as T-14/15, upper hemisphere smoke? though may in fact be hard kill interceptors as well. Strange indeed that it's in different format than either tube.

 

[luritie]

PLAN HGV & HCM ?

 

[luritie]

UUV

 

[Tomboy]

UUV
View attachment 781638

That is ridiculously long and thin ngl

 

[Tomboy]

Allegedly a huge torpedo similar to the Russian Poseidon.

 

[trajan]

A large number of new missiles were seen in the convoy of the Chinese army preparing for the National Day parade

 

[trajan]

New combat robots and a second-generation Chinese naval shipborne hypersonic missile reportedly codenamed yj21 (which can be launched via the vertical launch system of the large Type 055 cruiser).

 

[lancer21]

Apparently the sino-Poseidon.

 

[Sferrin]

If 70% were stuffed with Li-ion batteries, that's still a lot of room for sensors.

 

[luritie]

PLAN HCM/HGV/ASBM

An Autonomous torpedo.

Like those Autonomous cruise missiles, that are blurring the line between a drone and a missile.

UUV designation can also be used.


Some online netizens were saying it could be used in ambush tactics, staying dormant inside ocean for long periods.

 

[trajan]

Large Unmanned Underwater Vehicle

Looks like our navy is going to be sweating.

 

[trajan]

Laser weapon,new tank fleet,drone that looks similar to the mq25 .

 

[trajan]

 

[trajan]

The chassis and corresponding turret of the new generation of Chinese airborne infantry vehicle, which is estimated to be more powerful than the bmd4m.

 

[trajan]

I've never been more supportive of Pentagon officials cancelling those obsolete ampv and m2/m10 like carriers.
These brand new Chinese carriers. Our biggest hypothetical future adversary, all of which allegedly use Russian hull construction from when the t14 tank was designed to get far greater armour thickness than the older cold war designs.
This means our current vehicles are far behind in terms of survivabili ty

 

[Sferrin]

I've never been more supportive of Pentagon officials cancelling those obsolete ampv and m2/m10 like carriers.

Why? Were they less protected than our current production?

 

[trajan]

NOW we need hurry(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃

Like a giant, mobile, CAPTOR mine.

 

[trajan]

Sorry for being a bit maniacal, my point was that these Chinese vehicles would have significantly higher defences than our (US military) vehicles.

 

[luritie]

PLAN ASBM

 

[mokahete]

Like a giant, mobile, CAPTOR mine.

Can also potentially be used to cut/destroy undersea cables of taiwan, with less chance of being detected and intercepted.

Nah, they have their delicated drones for seabed warfare like the HSU001 seen in the 2019 parade.

Surely better than what we have now would be the way to go, no?

 

[vanishingelephant]

Big toy this one. Probably a silo based ICBM.

 

[Tomboy]

There also is some kind of long range stealthy cruise missile, no pics tho

 

[lancer21]

Sino-Burevestnik?

 

[luritie]

PLARF stealth cruise misile (?)
