What is the point of that thing? Shoot them with the gun while they’re busy laughing at the ridiculous design?

Why didn’t they whitewall the wheels for extra meme potential?

LOL, we laugh and yes it does look cartoony but there are places this thing can go where many vehicles can't, tracked or wheeled. It's light, probably cheap and fast to produce and easily transportable. Couple of horses can easily pull it.
If you networked hundreds of these and spread out strategically it could be extremely effective against drones, low flying helos or be good for rough mountainous terrains.

This is interesting! QN-202 man-portable, infrared fire-and-forget missile with 2km range. It's like a miniaturized MANPAD. I wonder if it's for both aerial and ground targets.

The info. placard says "Composite Detective Proximity Fuze", but it sure looks like a gun-fired anti-tank tandem-warhead round to me.

And finally, a high-resolution image of the QN-506.

That mini manpad/atgm is so cute! 2km range with f&f on a SMG sized launcher? That's some next gen shit.

It's profile is outrageously tall and it has a lot of redundant size. Maybe the cart is only for display purposes and the actual item is the turret + unmanned kit which you can install on anything?

What kind of military uses horses for non ceremonial purposes?

I'll bet both of my jewels that if a tracked/wheeled vehicle can't access a certain area, this definitely will not. The wheels are ridiculously massive and the paint job makes it more suited for a Mad Max sequel than a serious defense exhibition.

It's a marketing gimmick and likely not a vehicle that anyone in their sane minds would buy.

I will be disgorging an enormous amount of photos of land systems... Some of the notable photos will be cross-posted in existing threads for future reference.

Looks like a forward air controller and or drone operator kit. And more sino Multicam.

Likely ground targets. The Chinese version of the Raytheon Pike.
