PLA Small arms

I start to think this Leakage guy is ragebaiting....

Such arrogant and ignorant prejudice is a blatant manifestation of utter cluelessness about the PLA's naming conventions for weaponry and equipment.

Is there a similar document as GJB 4528 for infantry equipment?

China haters are very active recently, I'd give you that.

But back to topic...QTS-11 is more a prove-of-concept kit and, in its way, a specialist kit that is realistically portable for an un-augmented human operator. Would've been better if the munition scaled up to 40mm or the fabled .75 caliber in order to realistically pack the payload and necessary fuse/electronic component(s), but like I've said earlier, that requires power armour to make wielding one a feasible possibility.

Tbh by the time you have a power armor or powered exoskeleton you might as well just carry a rifle and a grenade launchers instead of that bulky thing.

I guess the gun is just not made at the right time. Just imagine the logistic/maintenance nightmare this thing could be for China's military in mid-2010s.

That’s one way to get people to wear armor properly…

As funny as that joke is its also true.

I think it is quite a difficult task to anticipate and understand. We do see some anticipation, all the smartphones/tablets and digital gear. They are using SMS through Beidou. Those things are here to stay.

If someone joined a Western military in the late 90's, early 00's, you basically did basic training still in the WWII style, clearing trenches, fire team movement, etc. Then five years in, you were doing kill houses, IED identification, etc. After ten years of that, it moves back to the older stuff, was that decade a huge waste of time?

In some ways, yes, a lot of those lessons were applicable only to that war being fought at that time. However, at the same time you have to train for the war you are fighting, not the next one...

The PLA has the luxury of not fighting any wars for a long time, but too many priorities related to modernization. Obviously infantry is lower on that list.

correct, it has been really difficult to define infantry's role in the past few years. Although I would guess that the one operating environment that is guaranteed to be infantry heavy is fighting in built up areas, but not the GWOT type room clearing, but more like the slugfest seen in ukraine.
