I don’t think there’s any concrete evidence, and Xinhua’s report only describes that it is equipped with a 350 horsepower engine.

this could be at least a good secondary source, maybe mayjor source, but it would be better to have another source
No, this new type of airborne combat vehicle has nothing to do with the ZBD03.

施 says it is a fully upgraded version of the ZBD03. Although the tracked weapons and hull have been upgraded, and new APS and anti-tipping equipment have been fitted, the design is still based on the ZBD03.
That’s only partly the view of some people, though.

Probably a little higher tbh, like 8.7-9.0. It’s primary weapon is the 30mm that can either use APDS-T or APFSDS-T with its secondary weapon being the tandem-HEAT HJ-73C ATGM which is SALCOS and capable of penetrating ~500mm+ RHA behind ERA but is very slow. It can also use the HJ-73E which penetrates 800mm of RHA behind ERA. The “E” version is found on the in-game ZBD86.
