Eight Highlights in China's V-Day Military Parade
(Source: China Military Online) 2015-08-14
BEIJING, August 13 (ChinaMil) -- September 3, 2015 is China's first
Victory Day of the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese
Aggression.
On that day, the celebration of the 70th anniversary of victory of
Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World
Anti-Fascist War will be staged at the Tian'anmen Square, an important part
of which will be the military parade.
This will be the 15th grand military parade since the founding of the
People's Republic of China, and also the first V-Day parade held by China as
one of the victorious nations in World War II.
Li Daguang, a professor from the National Defense University (NDU) of
the Chinese PLA, summarized the eight possible highlights of the military
parade.
Highlight 1: Heroic and Model Troops will be reviewed for the first time.
The troops participating in the military parade are of special features
and in a large variety. Heroic and Model Troops will be reviewed in
formation for the first time.
The formations on foot are the representatives of the standing armies in
which the CPC-led Heroic and Model Troops served during the anti-Japanese
war.
Representatives of the Heroic and Model Troops, comprised of the Eighth
Route Army, New Fourth Army, Northeast Anti-Japanese united forces and South
China guerrilla column, will be reviewed in formations for the first time.
Highlight 2: Formation of anti-Japanese war veterans render honors by
vehicle.
Veterans who participated in the anti-Japanese war, models for
supporting the frontline and children of heroes and martyrs will participate
in the parade, which shows reverence to those who contributed to and
sacrificed for the anti-Japanese war.
Considering that the veterans are senior citizen now and in reference to
similar parades in other countries and regions of the world, veterans
participating in the parade are likely to sit in military trucks or off-road
vehicles equipped with air conditioning facilities.
Highlight 3: Generals will lead formations.
In addition to parade troops that carry the history of the anti-Japanese
war, formations led by generals will be a new feature.
During the military parade on the V- Day, the formations on foot will be
led by generals, who, according to the common practice of foreign armies,
are likely the chief officers of the PLA Group Armies to which the Heroic
and Model Troops belong.
Highlight 4: Kuomintang veterans will be reviewed.
The Kuomintang army played an important role in the anti-Japanese war,
and some Kuomintang veterans will participate in the military parade this
time.
The Kuomintang army made its contributions to defending foreign
aggression and fighting for national independence, and history has given it
a fair and objective assessment.
Very few Kuomintang veterans still live today, some having gone to
Taiwan and some staying in the Chinese mainland. Organizing them to
participate in the military parade will be of profound significance.
Highlight 5: Foreign troops will participate in the parade for the first
time.
Another highlight of the military parade is that military
representatives and formations from foreign countries will be invited to
participate, which is aimed to fully reflect that the victory of the World
Anti-Fascist War belongs to the whole world.
According to international conventions, the PLA will invite countries
that took part in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese
Aggression and in the eastern theater of the World Anti-Fascist War, as well
as other related countries to dispatch troops to participate in the parade
and the observation.
So far countries including Russia have confirmed their acceptance of the
invitation. It is reported that Mongolia will send a delegation comprised
of 75 military service members to participate in the parade.
Highlight 6: Latest equipment will be demonstrated.
It is an international practice to display new weaponry and equipment in
military parade. Many of the weaponry and equipment to be displayed are
main battle equipment in active service newly developed by China, including
those from the PLA Army, Navy, Air Force and the Second Artillery Force (SAF
). A better part of them is displayed for the first time.
Light weapon: They are all in a leading position in the world, including
the 95-1 automatic rifle and 95B-1 short assault rifle that have become the
PLA's signature weapon, and type-03 automatic rifle added with bayonet.
They are all worth expecting.
Heavy weapon: the PLA Army is equipped with the advanced third-
generation main battle equipment, many of which have been displayed on
various occasions. For instance, the 96A main battle tank (MBT) is a new-
type modified MBT that has become a star for its performance in the Tank
Biathlon-2014 in Russia, and the type-05 amphibious tank that was displayed
in the 2009 National Day parade is still the amphibious fighting vehicle
with the greatest combat capability in the world today.
Infantry fighting vehicle (IFV): the new-generation 04A IFV with an
extremely cool appearance was exposed by CCTV when it participated in the "
Peace Mission-2014" multilateral joint military exercises organized by the
Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) in 2014.
Anti-tank guided missile: the Red Arrow-10 anti-tank guided-missile
launcher system that appeared in the SCO military exercises in 2014 and the
Red Arrow-12 anti-tank guided-missile that was debuted and drew extensive
attention at the 2014 Air-show China in Zhuhai are both worth expecting.
Especially the latter, which is a car-borne missile, is very likely to
appear on IFV or paratrooper fighting vehicle (PFV).
Rocket launcher: the new crawler 122mm modular self-propelled rocket
launcher system with a firing range of 60km appeared in the SCO military
exercises in 2014. China is the only country in the world with this kind of
modular rocket launcher.
Anti-aircraft weapon: For instance, the type-07 35mm self-propelled anti
-aircraft gun equipped with electronically scanned search radar has an
overall layout similar to Germany's Gepard. The new-type wheeled 35mm
revolving single-barrel anti-aircraft gun, one of the only two in the world,
boasts a super cool appearance and a jaw-dropping firing rate of 1,000
bullets per barrel.
Missile equipment: the DF-16 short-range ballistic missile looks like a
magnified bullet and may replace the former DF-11 and DF-15 in the upcoming
parade. Furthermore, the DF-21D, the only medium-range anti-ship ballistic
missile in the world today, is also worth expecting.
Highlight 7: Aviation formation will display dazzling equipment.
As a heavyweight part of the V-Day parade, the formation of aviation
equipment will display a spate of aviation equipment.
Fighter: The J-11B fighter has realized complete local production and
will be used to equip the PLA for a long time.
J-10B is the most advanced locally-produced fighter in active service
and will be the spotlight of the parade because it's fitted with phased
array radar.
The J-10A featuring great maneuverability, which is a proven locally
produced fighter used by the Bayi Aerobatics Team, may steal the thunder in
the parade.
The J-15 commonly known as "Flying Shark" is a multi-purpose ship-borne
fighter newly designed and developed on the basis of the third-generation
fighter technology.
Large warplane: As the first newly developed strategic bomber since the
end of the Cold War, the H-6K "Mars" medium-range strategic bomber boasts a
powerful deterrence and can carry air-launched cruise missiles (ALCM). It
may fly over the Tian'anmen Square this time.
The Y-20 strategic transport aircraft that was debuted at Air show China
in Zhuhai, will likely appear again in the parade.
Army Aviation helicopter: The Chinese PLA has a range of helicopters
today including gunship and transporter, all of which may appear in the
upcoming parade. Among them, the WZ-10 attack helicopter is of epochal
significance for army aviation force. The WZ-19 attack helicopter nicknamed
"Black Whirlwind" is developed in the same period as WZ-10 and is likely to
be a popular product in the international market.
As China's latest heavy-duty transporter, the Z-18A is able to fly over
the Tibetan Plateau and will capture the attention of the whole world if it
flies over the Tian'anmen Square carrying the super-light howitzer.
Highlight 8: Naval formation will focus on ship-borne weapon.
Limited by the site, the PLA Navy is only able to display ship-borne
weapon.
The Naval Hongqi-9 anti-aircraft missile that was displayed in 2009 is
China's main air-defense weapon on the sea. The newly modified version of
this active radar-guided ship-to-air missile may be displayed this time.
The YJ-18 anti-ship missile is China's new-generation ship-to-ship
missile similar to Russia's Klub. It is regarded as the "ideal anti-ship
missile" by the United States.
The YJ-63 missile is widely equipped in the shore-to-ship missile forces
of the PLA Navy and has triggered a surge of new shore-to-ship missile
development in the U.S., Japan and other countries.
The YJ-12 air-launched anti-ship missile is an important piece of
equipment in the PLA Navy's missile bomber force, it is a rare heavy-duty
supersonic anti-ship missile newly developed after the end of the Cold War.
