China develops next-gen amphibious military vehicle with unmanned turret
The new amphibious infantry fighting vehicles are expected to replace the existing Type 05 family.
China is developing the next generation of amphibious infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs) to replace the existing Type 05 family, according to a new post on X (formerly Twitter) by the handle OedoSoldier.
The new amphibious IFV, identified by hull number 003, appears to feature an unmanned turret with no visible crew positions and may integrate multiple sensor systems for target acquisition and active defense, potentially forming part of a hard-kill active protection system (APS).
