$ 15 per shot: China on parade will show "The most powerful laser air defense system in the world"
The event is expected to be attended by world leaders, including Vladimir Putin, North Korean dictator Kim Jong -in and President Iran Masud Pesashkian. However, Western military leaders will closely monitor the events from afar, trying to catch hints at China's technological potential. The rehearsals of the event showed a new laser weapon mounted on an eight -wheeled truck and covered with green tarpaulin.
American analysts will try to conclude whether it is a real technological step forward or simply a "nonsense," Rob Peters, Senior Researcher at Heritage Foundation, said. But he noted that although the creation of laser air defense systems requires a lot of costs, their "endless store" means that they can destroy drones by spending only $ 15 per shot.
Other new samples of military equipment demonstrated during exercises include four new anti -ship missiles of the so -called "Eagle Attack" class, which can be used to drown British or US warships. Analysts say that Chinese weapons are increasingly used in wars around the world: Chinese drones were used in the war in Ukraine, and earlier in 2025 Pakistan used the J-10 Chinese-made fighter and PL-15 missile to knock down the Air Force Air Force.
This incident is expected to be the first case of the use of NVAK technologies in the field to destroy Western military products. The parade dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II is an important event for China, and is expected to be speaking. Tens of thousands of soldiers will pass the Tiananmen Square, including servicemen from dozens of brigades, as well as veterans.
In Tzik, an official who helps organize a military parade, stated at a briefing in Beijing: "All the weapons and equipment presented this time were chosen from among the main combat samples of domestic production, which are currently in service, in addition, much of them are new types of weapons.
" Military analysts believe that the YJ-17 rocket, which is shown in the parade, is potentially capable of carrying warheads weighing from 600 to 1100 pounds, which provides it with powerful armor-piercing opportunities. Apparently, the rocket was designed to defeat well -protected warships, which is a barely veiled warning of the event to stay away from regional conflicts, most likely with Taiwan.
Tianzhan Sui, Senior Analyst Open Nuclear Network, reported that this weapon was designed to increase "the chances of lesions of the air defense systems and, apparently, it is developed to suppress the US Navy in the Western Pacific. " Other expected weapons are YJ-15 Aviation missile and YJ-19 and YJ-20 hypersonic missiles. The demonstration of new tanks, fighter jets and drones is also expected.
