In celebrating the People's Republic's 68th Anniversary, October 1st
CCTV 中国中央电视台 just released an excellent, high quality series of "documentary" with topic on military on 30 September 2017. Unfortunately the series of EIGHT episodes in 1080P resolution, with each episode of app. 40 minutes, have no English subtitles, so for those viewers who don't understand Chinese, just enjoy the many cool footages of military stuffs, which are seamlessly integrated into those EIGHT episodes.

CCTV News recently reported a Shockwave Hypersonic Wind Tunnel in the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) in Beijing. The program noted that the Pentagon's annual report has been concerned about such wind tunnel for four consecutive years. (part of the pictures came from a Weibo's user: 沉默的山羊)
The JF-12 Shockwave Hypersonic Wind Tunnel, which is called the "Hyper-Gigantic Dragon" by its international counterpart, is a long tube of metallic material, 265 meters long, ranking first in term of length among the world's shockwave wind tunnels. To do this piping is not easy at all, the first project of ultra high pressure and large diameter alloy steel design technology and ultra high pressure detonation segment clamping design technology of double-layered membrane machine, and in collaboraton with the Northern Heavy Industry to make breakthrough in processing technology of high-strength alloy steel pipe with large diameter deep hole. (Editor in chief: Wang Jingyu, SN194)

Here's an old CCTV footage uploaded by Henri KENHMANN (East Pendulum) on Nov 2, 2012

What's the Hypersonic Wind Tunnel? Why is it important?

"The Chinese nation is no longer satisfied with living like a farmer who eyes nothing but his own piece of land and a family to raise. We are looking up into space now."

Scramjet engines mix together air and liquid fuel at supersonic speeds, to result in the rapid combustion that propels aircraft and missiles at hypersonic speeds over Mach 5. In September 2015, Professor Wang Zhenguo received an award from the Chinese Society for Aeronautics and Astronautics (CSAA) for the successful development of China's first scramjet engine over the past decade.

China has the world's largest Hypersonic Wind Tunnel, the JF-12. The JF-12 can produce speeds of up to Mach 9 (NASA's Hypersonic Wind Tunnel reaches to only Mach 7). The JF-12 would provide Chinese scientists with a convenient way to observe supersonic airflow of different scramjet configurations, in addition to directly testing material durability in laboratory conditions, rather than having to make difficult and expensive high-altitude engine test flights.

And old article from October 2015, yet it's still worth of reading if one is new to this technology.
