The Dongfeng Mengshi with the dome behind the trunk, do you know what variant that is?

Must be a Satellite Communication variant.
The unarmoured Mengshi behind this one has two antenna masts, probably for erecting directinal antennas.
I think these two vehicles together can set up a communication network node, linking brigade level command post to various nearby battalion level units.
Something looks like this pic:

When did this happen? Those are some fancy gear
Looks like PLA is putting a lot of thoughts into urban combat.
Not all of it is super new. The scanner, reconaissance rolling camera, and exo skeleton were seen before although this scanner is a bit different from the one we saw in, I think, 2020.

Apparently the mothership drone carries the dog on top when just transporting it, and it slings the dog underneath if the dog is to be deployed into combat. In addition:

Is a flying hand grenade drone

Is a small reconnaissance drone

I don't think the flying grenade is intended for deploying directly from the big drone. The dog has a grenade launcher attachment and the flying grenade is ammo for it.

Don't get too excited.

This is just a tech demo, and most if not all of the technology shown are not viable for actual military use.

Its basically adapting some COTS technology and seeing how it can be used in a military setting.


If you oversell it as a "drill" then all you are doing is damaging credibility.

BEIJING, Sept. 1 (Xinhua) -- A guideline on enhancing and improving national defense education for all people has been jointly issued by the Communist Party of China Central Committee, the State Council and the Central Military Commission.
Noting the significance of national defense education and people's increasing awareness of national defense, the guideline specifies further efforts to implement a holistic approach to national security, enhance people's vigilance against potential dangers in times of peace, respect for military personnel, and sense of responsibility to build a strong country with a strong military.
The enthusiasm and activity aimed at safeguarding national defense should be shared by the whole society, the guideline says.
The guideline urges improved education in national defense theories, knowledge, history, statutes, relevant contexts and tasks, skill training and culture.
It outlines efforts to enhance national defense education for Party and government officials as well as the general public. In particular, national defense education should be incorporated into school curriculums and factored into the school performance evaluation system, so as to raise awareness among the youth.
The guideline also calls for efforts to build more national defense education bases for the public across the country, launch more awareness raising events such as national defense-themed movie exhibitions and sports events.
Digital technologies such as big data and cloud computing should be leveraged to promote national defense education, the guideline says.
