Yep, the PLAGF uses the ZTZ99A while the VT-4 is solely for export purposes
ZBD-04B with a modified hull, as well as different turret, also has a similar APS found on the ZTZ99A
Has been spotted not long ago

This is not the ZBD04B. This is China’s new airborne IFV. The one in the image is the real 04B.

Allegedly a new ZBD05 chassis (?) using HJ-10s

something new, the box is quite different
The hull is 05B, and I think it’s not AFT-10.
similar length but much thinner(AFT-10’s box is from 300-400mm wide and ~2m long).
size similar to Spike NLOS(1648 mm × 234 mm × 310 mm )
this means it should have a much longer range, 20km if with optical fibre, or even reach 30km without optical fibre.
.
Missiles from China often change over time. Take for example the CM502KG, earlier on being slightly bigger than now. This could be the same case here

any details? I only remember it’s 45kg, no other information about it has changed.
and such big difference between the new one and HJ-10, it should be a new missile.
That is a big change though, could only think that unless they did fundamental changes like guidance types or motor. Could be SA missile as well, if it’s IR.

missile type won’t change, it’s still something very similar to HJ-10
Original one had 11kg warhead I think

Type 625
[Type 625 firing]
Hello everyone :), what I would like to introduce today is Type 625.
Introduction
Type 625 is the self use version, which will be publicly equipped in China’s air defense forces in 2021. The vehicle uses 6-barrel 25mm Gatling guns and is equipped with 4 × HN-6B or FN-16 anti-aircraft missiles on both sides of the turret, which is a long-range integrated anti-aircraft system.
[Type 625 equipped with radar]
Its chassis was developed from the MV3 tr…
the camo it has on shows closer to the export variant than the in service ones (in service are green while the export has the camo print
to know if it is the 625 or the 625E the thing is that in the military show the 625E is always shown with a desert camo unlike the 625 of national production to see if we will have the 625E with the FB 10 or the 625 with the hn6
I hope no, plus it would be just a slightly better and much bigger PGZ04A with decent radar
Could Lasers be added as SPAA in the future? , sorry I’m not up to date on if they said they will or won’t.
A new chinese system has been seen: and it looks like a bigger version of the displayed LW-30 30kW at zhuhai airshow.
