China Teases Glimpse of Advanced New Weaponry at Military Parade

China said that it will show off new weapons at a military parade next month, potentially giving rivals like the US a first chance to see what hardware the Asian nation is ready to field.

“The weapons and equipment on display this time were all selected from major battle equipment that is domestically produced and is currently in service, with a large proportion being new types of equipment making their debut,” Wu Zeke, an official helping organize the event planned for Sept. 3, said at a briefing in Beijing on Wednesday.
