on chinese tieba, I saw someone claimed it changed to a hybrid engine like Type 100
2025 Victory Day parade thread (workup, 3rd Sept)
- Thread starter Blitzo
- Start date
There's usally a event afterwards where we learn more.
Which is no different from previous PLA parades. Detailed info usually came out much later
warheads being paraded separately - fair, Cure Orca hinted at the same too, perhaps it was pulled
UUV being a Poseidon - no they explicitly warned not to think of the UUV being like that, repeatedly too. Ao Bing even said Poseidon as a nuclear deterrence is terrible because it's slow. It's no use in a nuclear war for it to arrive in US harbour a week after nuclear exchange - war would be over by then.
DF-17 no longer worthy of being paraded - I'm not sure about this one. I don't think they explicitly said as such or something more like "this is the last chance for DF-17 to be paraded, if at all". Given DF-27 apparently got pulled perhaps it was replaced by DF-17.
Wait fr? Because I remember for 2019 atleast all designations were announced
And alot of the changes where suble, yet this tells us they arent lying about all the stuff being paraded around being in service, which would make things like thr HQ-9C and YJ-17 and type 100 very new news indeed.
