The power of a state and the respect of its neighbors as at all times is determined by the ability of its armed forces to defend national interests all equipment including military equipment is produced there exclusively by people.
Which is a plus for china and another intimidating factor for enemies china has a very large army a developed military industry and its mobilization resources are the largest in the world the chinese army ranks third in the world behind only.
The united states and russia it is constantly showing off many powerful new weapons and experts believe china is sending a message many people think that china is in the process of creating the most advanced weapon system in the world in recent years china has developed a number of high-tech weapons for its army navy and aviation.
It is known that china gives priority to the development of the naval and air forces it is still lagging behind russia in some areas in aircraft and rocket engines submarines cruise missiles but this gap is rapidly closing moreover the prc is gradually turning into a powerful player in the world arms market confidently occupying the niche of inexpensive and high quality weapons in our blog you will learn about the most successful military developments of the chinese army .
We will start with tanks vt4 and bt-3000 for the past 50 years chinese tanks have not been considered particularly sophisticated especially by american standards this was due to the fact that for a long time the chinese fighting tanks were developed or more correctly copied from captured or secretly obtained samples this engineering often resulted in a tank that was similar and designed to its soviet counterpart but was much worse in all other respects recently .
This trend has begun to change and while there is no doubt that modern chinese military equipment is still largely based on foreign technology and designs the design of the new tanks definitely shows a higher level of complexity the vt4 tank also known as the mbt 3000 is considered to be an improved vt1 model it was built by the chinese state corporation norinko the concept debuted in 2012 the vt-4 features a digitized interface and combat control system that increased.
The tank's efficiency like many of the combat vehicles on this list the chinese tank is also equipped with active defenses that can detect and hit attacking missiles type 99 the type 99 tanks are equipped with a 125 millimeter cannon with a carousel automatic loader taken from soviet era models during the war in the persian gulf the gun showed itself weekly in battles with the abrams and challenger tanks but thanks to ammunition with a tungsten core at a shorter distance .
It is able to penetrate the frontal armor of the abrams the new type 99a2 tank has a larger gun which theoretically should give a higher muzzle velocity to sub-caliber projectiles as well as increase armor penetration and hit accuracy the cannon also has an intricate new stabilizer according to the available information china intends to eventually install a 140 millimeter cannon on the type 99 tank although during preliminary tests the gun barrel exploded the type 99 combines composite and modular armor providing approximately.
The same protection as or close to that of the abrams one source claims that this armor is equivalent to armor steel about 1100 millimeters thick although its actual effectiveness is classified the type 99 has an active countermeasures laser system that warns the commander if his vehicle is irradiated by an enemy laser beam this gives the driver a chance to steer the tank out of the danger zone now let's move on to the particularly dangerous military aircrafts.
That china is proud of chengdu j-10 the shang-do j-10 is an all-weather multi-role fighter in the workhorse of the chinese air force all 400 currently operating were produced by the chengdu aircraft industry group in china with the participation of russian specialists and using russian-made units the j-10 is piloted by a crew of two but there is also a single-seat variant called the j-10a the j-10 has 11 fixed suspension points six under the wings and five under the fuselage they could be attached to air-to-air and surface-to-air missiles or external fuel tanks to increase the flight range j-10 aircraft are also armed with satellite-guided laser-guided bombs the practical ceiling of the j-10 is 59 055 feet its maximum speed is over 1 67 miles per hour which puts it on a par with the fastest fighters other than the u.s air force shenyang j-11 shenyang j-11b is a fourth-generation chinese fighter it is viewed.
