Chinese AAAV

These are some photos.

 

[Firefly 2]

Prototype or operational?

I know from www.sinodefence.com that the Chinese have been trying make a quantum leap as to their amphibious competencies, but never thought they were developing a high speed amphibious attack craft, which the forward ramp seems to refer to.

Hey Siva,

is the photo at the bottom identical (in all but vehicle number) to the other two -- it isn't clear on my computer, but the top two definately have a large caliber gun (76MM or higher) -- or is this a group photo of two different variants on the same theme?

Any further info would be a BIG help.

Thanks

There are several variants.One is equipped with 105mm cannon, the other is equipped with 30mm cannon. I am looking for more information.
