There's been a teaser for a new Chinese Tank on some state run T.V channels. Any one here any info on that ?
 
The first footage of the test flight of the new Chinese stealth reconnaissance and strike UAV CH-7 has appeared. Outwardly, the CH-7 resembles the American reconnaissance drone RQ-170 Sentinel. In 2011, the US lost one such drone in western Afghanistan, and Iran later announced that they had the drone. The China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation commented on the similarity with the RQ-170 as follows: "The capabilities of the CH-7 are far superior to the American drone RQ-170 and are close in their characteristics to the RQ-180." The length of the CH-7 is 10 m, the wingspan is 22 m, the maximum takeoff weight is 13 tons. The UAV flight altitude is over 10 km, the speed is 900 km/h, the flight time is 15 hours.

 
China showed at the Airshow China-2022 air show in Zhuhai its version of a military dog robot with an installed combat system, there are no details about the combat robot yet.

 
At the Airshow China 2022 exhibition, a promo video of the Chinese strike UAV CH4 was shown. In general, the amount shown at the exhibition is impressive, we will talk about some of the presented. UAV CH-4 has huge dimensions, length 8.5 meters, wingspan 18 meters. The drone is produced in two versions - the CH-4A reconnaissance vehicle with a flight duration of up to 30 hours and the CH-4V attack vehicle, capable of carrying up to 350 kg of combat load on four external suspension units. There is also a version of the CH-4C drone. The maximum flight altitude of the drone is 8000 meters. Flight speed up to 220 km/h. The drone is equipped with a piston engine.

 
A promo video of China's new Wing Loong 3 UAV was shown at AirShow China 2022. The video shows the alleged future combat work of the Wing Loong 3 UAV. According to Chinese media, the Wing Loong 3 drone can carry 16 missiles and bombs, and it will also be equipped with a new PL-10E air-to-air missile. The UAV is made according to the scheme similar to the UAV General Atomics MQ-9A/B USA. Wing Loong-3 is equipped with a turboprop engine and has a flight range of up to 10 thousand km. The maximum takeoff weight of the UAV is 6200 kg with a payload of up to 2300 kg. The flight duration reaches up to 40 hours.

This thing is impractical as hell. No way that tiny size could withstand the recoil of 20mm cannon mounted on its back. Where the hell is it going to store ammo?

Maybe they have solved the recoil problem?
 
Unless they found a way to bend the laws of physics, I don't think so.
But I'm sure that they would conduct some experiments, and even doing a lot of trial when they develop this weapon. If this weapon doesn't work, I'm sure that they won't even continue to the next step of development.
 
The Chinese Navy has published a promo video about the destroyers of project 055. The first destroyer of the 4th generation, project 055, was first launched in 2014. Type 055 destroyers are so large that they are classed as cruisers in the US. Ships of this series are being built very quickly, short construction times have been achieved due to the modular-sectional approach. The ship is equipped with a Type 346B radar capable of detecting large targets at ranges up to 600 km. The destroyer has modular vertical launchers for missiles, the total ammunition load is 112 missiles. To destroy surface and coastal targets, the destroyer can use YJ-18 and CJ-10 cruise missiles. Air defense at medium and long ranges is carried out using HHQ-9 and HHQ-16 missiles. There are also CY-5 anti-submarine missiles. The ship is equipped with a 130-mm artillery system, 30-mm machine guns, an HJ-10 anti-aircraft system with 24 missiles and electronic warfare systems. To combat underwater targets, there are two 324 mm torpedo tubes. The displacement of the ship is 13,000 tons. At the moment, the destroyers of this project are considered among the most powerful in the world.
