Where is this from?

There are some of the shadows and colours which makes it look like a CGI


Edit, okay so it's from a magazine cover.

Not really decisive given the magazines also sometimes use CGI for their cover

This has to be CGI. The grass looks fake AF and the transparent coverings took too transparent compared to pics. Also, tyres along with the whole vehicle looks wayyy too clean and shows basically no wear/weathering.

Still no CITV on top. Perhaps it retracts inside the turret when not in use? Or just not fitted yet/at all.
the size of this batch is also weird , I wonder if it is the same bunch that we saw few month ago.
Is PLA planning on equipping units with company size batches ? or are they waiting for a full battalion worth.

Most of the pictures we have of them so far seem pre delivery so I am not sure if they are fully outfitted yet.

I wouldn't judge until we see one in service colours and unit markings.

That what I mean , it seems to me because the batch size that they are still far from been delivered to PLA , and if all of these are the same batch , meaning we keep seeing the same IFVs , I wonder why they are moving them around all over the place .
One would think the testing phase is already done.
