These vehicles are a modern version of the German Sturmgeschütz from World War II. More heavily armored vehicles than the IFV to provide anti-infantry firepower and other functions to MBTs and mounted infantry in more traditional IFVs and APCs.

Does it come with a phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range?

Looks like the perfect LAV to use against your own population in a Communist country.

1) That’s not a tank
2) That’s a chain gun, not a typical cannon you’d see on a main battle tank
3) It looks like a low-profile version of the Bradley except for that weird sight popping up really high in the center of the vehicle (and it doesn’t appear capable of hauling dismounts). Obviously it’s meant for peaking over an IV line for recon purposes, but it also makes it a great target for small arms fire
4) That’s not a tank

The article call the Russian version a BMP-T. Those aren’t BMP road wheels, though. Looks like it’s riding on a shortened T-72 chassis; 5 road wheels, vs 6. Just an observation I find interesting.

Planes.....you show planes at an air show.
What do the Chinese bring to car shows?
An orange squeezer?
Somebody needs to explain marketing to them.
