And of course, the Lynx 8x8 all-terrain buggie is also featured in this drill under an air assault mode
Wishful thinking or the little engine that could?
The Lynx 8x8 all-terrain (87 hp diesel) has been in PLA service since
2010 and has long been associated with PLA's heliborne assault doctrine
development from the get-go. The Lynx is also widely reported in
service in rough terrains such as Xinjiang, Tibet and near the
Sion-Vietnam boarder.

Now it is being aggressively marketed - judging by recent Zhuhai Airshow
- as an entire light family of assault and heliborne solutions ranging
from transport, indirect and direct fire support, to air defense
