The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Xinjiang Military Command, which is stationed in China's high-altitude western areas, has confirmed that it has received three new advanced weaponry systems in the last week, including armoured vehicles and artillery pieces, as analysts predicted on Sunday.
Here is the content list:
1. A new type of armoured assault vehicle has been revealed.
2. Newly delivered new-type, four-wheeled self-propelled howitzer.
3. New self-propelled heavy rocket launchers have gone into service
A video news website linked with the PLA stated on Sunday that dozens of a new type of armoured assault vehicle had recently entered duty with a PLA Xinjiang Military Command unit deployed in a snowy plateau region at an elevation of more than 4,500 meters.
According to the clip, the eight-wheeled armoured vehicles come in a variety of configurations, including those with big calibre rifled equipment, autocannons, machine guns, and howitzer systems.
A new-type, four-wheeled self-propelled howitzer was recently handed to a group that recently completed its first live-fire target practice deep in the Karakorum Mountains at an altitude of 4,500 meters, according to China Central Television (CCTV).
In addition, a unit deployed in a snow-covered region at an elevation of more than 5,200 meters recently received a batch of new self-propelled heavy rocket launchers that are highly mobile, fast-reacting, highly accurate, very deadly, and jamming-resistant, according to a separate CCTV report on May 8.
According to Shanghai-based news website, the Type 08 armoured vehicle, a 122mm-calibre self-propelled howitzer that incorporates technologies from the PCL-181 155mm-calibre self-propelled howitzer, and the PHL-03 long-range multiple rocket launcher systems are the three new military equipment systems.
According to a Chinese military affairs analyst who requested anonymity, the PLA's high-altitude troops are gaining enhanced mobility and firepower by upgrading their arsenal with the latest military equipment systems, allowing them to better fulfill their missions in safeguarding the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Observers say the PLA Xinjiang Military Command has been commissioning a variety of modern weaponry during the last year. The command got the first batch of newly designed Type 15 light tanks in early 2021, according to analysts, which excel at rapid reaction fighting in plateau regions.
Official reports also reveal other new military equipment systems, such as the PLC-181 howitzer and third-generation Mengshi assault vehicles, according to eastday.com. According to analysts, these are developing a complete, modern ground warfare system that is particularly important for plateau battles.

The military term for hiking while carrying weight is "rucking." As you might expect, this is a major concern for the military, as soldiers are required to wear body armour and carry weapons, ammo, water, communications equipment, and other equipment in military backpack when on patrols and operations. For military operations and people, rucking performance and injury prevention are critical.
Many mountain activities, from day hiking to backpacking to major mountain alpinism, require movement over the ground when loaded. We uncovered five rules that are just as applicable to mountain sports as they are to combat operations after analyzing the military's previous studies on the issue.
1.A pound of weight on your feet equals five pounds of weight on your back.
2.An extra pound on your feet means a 5% increase in energy expenditure.
3.Every 1% of your body weight in your pack adds six seconds to your mile time.
According to a 1984 research by the US Army Research Institute, this ancient hiking rule still holds. They looked at how much more energy was expended with different types of footwear (boots and shoes) and found that moving at a given pace takes 4.7 to 6.4 times as much energy when weight is carried on the shoe versus the torso.
In practice, this means you could carry half a gallon of extra water (just over 4 pounds) if you buy a pound lighter pair of boots, which isn't difficult to do; and that's a lot of water. Consider the energy savings of backpacking in light trail running shoes instead of hefty leather backpacking boots throughout a seven-day journey.
Heavier footwear has an impact on you in more ways than one. Heavier boots are stiffer and less responsive. When you strike the ground, your body's stretch reaction is less effective.
However, 5% doesn't seem like a lot, so how does it transfer into run times? So, depending on how long you're running, 5% would slow your mile speed down by 30 seconds. However, the quicker you try to run, the more than 5% will affect your results.
Carrying weight in your pack, on the other hand, isn't free. Each 1% of your body weight carried in your pack adds 6 seconds to your mile time. If you weigh 150 pounds, adding 1.5 pounds to your pack slows you down by 6 seconds every mile. On a long journey, decreasing your pack weight from 40 to 30 pounds saves you 40 seconds per mile for a 150-pound hiker.

As the last article has talked about three rules that need to be paid attention to, we will continue to talk about the rest two rules of military backpack.
Here are the content lists:
1. A ten percent incline reduces your speed by half.
2. Slowing down slows you down twice as much as speeding up.
3. Soldiers' real-life experiences using military backpack in the United States army.
The speed of a person is strongly influenced by their grade. The term "grade" refers to the amount of elevation or decrease in the terrain. At a 10% grade, for example, you'll gain 1 foot for every 10 feet you move ahead. In angle terms, ten percent equals 5.74 degrees. When you're humping up a 5.74-degree angle mile after mile, it doesn't feel like much. You'll know how difficult it is because you'll move twice as slowly with a given load over it as you would on flat terrain. That last part—with a specific load—is crucial. Whether you're hauling 45 lbs. or 80 lbs., a 10% grade will limit your speed in half.
I don't think you'll make it up the other side of the hill in time. You're not going to succeed. You'll only be able to make up half of the time. Why don't you make up for what you lose by running downhill? Forces of braking To stay in control while you fall, you must use your quads to break your pace. The more braking required, the steeper the downhill. If you do a lot of up and down labour, this extra strain on your muscles will damage your uphill performance even more.
A US soldier, Robert Schumacher, with twenty years experience in the army said that “my rucksack was full of all kinds of lightweight gear that gradually got heavier and heavier as the Army came up with ever more lightweight gear for me to carry, The average rucksack is supposed to weigh no more than a certain percentage of your body weight for you to be able to move and fight. Mission requirements too often say otherwise. When you figure in the weight of your LCE, (military for load-carrying equipment or the vest you see soldiers wearing), plus your weapon, uniform, binoculars, night vision device, and everything else, the weight becomes quite remarkable, The heaviest rucksack that I carried weighed 145 lbs, (I remember every painful step, as I remembered that I could have signed up for the Navy). Even the combat load, (what you carrying into combat and fight with), can easily weigh 60 lbs.) The idea is to carry only what you need into combat, but the fear of facing the unexpected keeps you putting things in that you probably will never need - but if you do need it….”

The US military spends tens of millions of dollars each year on the research and development of new military products. Every day, new inventions are brought to life through military research and development, from the behind-the-scenes labour that tracks what's needed, to the science that makes the military product feasible, to prototypes and field testing.
What we don't realize, though, is how many ordinary things began this way. The military products didn't invent these things, but that doesn't mean they stayed in the military. Many objects made it to widespread use, and the origins of many of them have since been forgotten.
Take a look at these common military goods that were brought to life by tax dollars and military research:
1. The sanitary napkins were invented in 1914.
2. In the 1930s, the popular Ray-Ban Aviator Sunglasses was invented.
3. Duct Tape and Super Glue were invented in 1942.
1. The sanitary napkins were invented in 1914.
Let us pay special tribute to pioneer women. Before the 1920s, the majority of what was available was homemade. Cotton pads were first introduced during WWI as military product, but a cotton shortage prompted the Kimberly-Clark Company to develop cellucotton, an absorbent material produced from wood pulp. Originally designed for bandages, nurses in the Red Cross recognized their usefulness and began using them during Aunt Flo's visits.
Kimberly-Clark began producing and marketing cellucotton sanitary napkins after the war ended. Because of the nature of the product's use, many businesses refused to stock it, but sanitary napkins became readily available to the general public instead of only military product within a few years.
2. In the 1930s, the popular Ray-Ban Aviator Sunglasses was invented.
As military pilots reached unprecedented altitudes, they realized they needed military product -- sunglasses to protect them from the strong glare. The US Army Air Corps hired Bausch & Lomb to design aviator goggles with their trademark shape and lens material that successfully filtered out the light.
However, the product was not excluded; in 1937, they re-branded a pair of sunglasses as “Ray-Bans” (banning the rays) and sold them to civilians.
By the end of the 1930s, as military products, all soldiers were issued a pair, and the civilian populace could purchase them as well.
3.Duct Tape and Super Glue were invented in 1942.
Duct Tape was another WWII invention of military product. Johnson & Johnson Co. developed it in response to a request from the military for an adhesive that could resist harsh environments. Their first invention was dubbed "duck tape" because it was waterproof. It was frequently utilized by civilians after the war, most commonly to seal ducts. It was renamed Duct Tape and rebranded in silver to match modern heating and air conditioning systems.
During World War II, Super Glue made its appearance as well. When Eastman Kodak was looking for a compound to utilize on plastic rifle sights, they came up with this compound. It was created by chance and was found to be too sticky to use.
It was rediscovered nearly a decade later and discovered to have enormous commercial potential. It was first sold to the general public in 1958, and physicians used it to swiftly seal open wounds during the Vietnam War.
