Beijing is preparing for a major military parade, exhibiting its most advanced weaponry to international leaders. The event, which will be attended by prominent figures like Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong-un, and Masoud Pezeshkian, is a commemoration of China’s victory over Japan in World War II. The display is expected to include a range of new military technologies, underscoring China’s growing military capabilities. Preliminary observations from rehearsals have revealed several key pieces of equipment. These include new anti-ship missiles designed to target naval vessels, sophisticated underwater drones, and advanced anti-missile systems. The exact nature of the weapons on display remains a closely guarded secret, but the anticipation is high. There’s speculation about the possible inclusion of a powerful laser weapon. Chinese military officials have stated that all the showcased defense equipment is domestically produced and currently in active duty. Several types of missiles will be on display, including hypersonic missiles capable of traveling at speeds exceeding Mach 5. Furthermore, unmanned underwater drones, potentially designed for surveillance or offensive operations, have been spotted. A missile defense system, reportedly capable of intercepting missiles and satellites, is also expected to be part of the display. This system is mounted on a wheeled vehicle. Finally, there are reports about powerful laser defense systems and new armored vehicles.
