Video of the the armor formation going through rehearsal:

Around 2:50, the tank driver says that previously, driving a tank requires strength. Now, it requires intelligence. Can anyone explain what he means by that?

While the overall context is about the ZTZ-99 introduced more automation, for the driver it's no longer as manual as in the old days(old tanks use levers to steer)...now there's almost no picture or video when comes to the interior of the ZTZ-99, that probably implies that the ZTZ-99 driving system departs from the old levers type, but more akin to the kind use by current generation Western MBTs?

Selfies!

No, it should be the BEST SELFIE STICK in the world.

Selfie! I like their kevlar vests. Again, just don't know why the marching formations don't have them.

again with the "Sino-Multicam" note the Gloves with hard Knuckes to. Could this be some kind of prelude to a camo change? I am guessing PLA as they lack the PAP markings.

I have a feeling that PLA troops in Gansu, Inner Mongolia, and Xinjiang might adopt the Multicam due to the desert environment. What do u think?
