China’s military parade on September 3 promises the most significant display of advanced capabilities in years, featuring new drones and previously unseen missiles, including YJ-15, YJ-17, YJ-19, and YJ-20. These missiles, capable of air, sea, submarine, or ground launches, enhance China’s high-speed strike potential, particularly in maritime operations. YJ-17 may feature a hypersonic boost-glide or air-breathing design, while YJ-19 uses ramjet/scramjet propulsion. YJ-20 resembles a multi-stage ballistic missile. The display highlights China’s growing missile sophistication, posing serious challenges to defense systems. 00:00 – INTRODUCTION01.17 – DECODING CHINA’S ‘MYSTERY’ MISSILESn18oc_world n18oc_crux
