How China’s NEW Artillery Stacks Up vs. the U.S.

General

Helpful English Resources:• ATP 7-100.3 “Chinese Tactics” ( https://armypubs.army.mil/epubs/DR_pu… ) is the U.S. Army’s OPFOR manual on Chinese tactics. It gives a good overview of PLA force structure that is more or less consistent. But of course it is not an official PLA doctrine and most likely based heavily on open-sources, so it should be taken as an approximation rather than exact fact. There is always the risk of reports like this being a “dirty mirror” where the writer sees their own military’s doctrine where it might not be. But we’ll never get as detailed of a doctrine publication out of China as we get out of western nations. • ODIN ( https://odin.tradoc.army.mil/ ) has a database on military equipment, including Chinese artillery• U.S. Army TRADOC’s quick reference guide to PLA ground force structure ( https://rdl.train.army.mil/catalog-ws… )• Jaidev Jamwal ( https://jjamwal.in/yayavar/chinese-ar… ) aggregates a lot of what can be gleaned from open-sources on Chinese units, including rough garrisons and tactical markings in each theater command. But this is a blog so proceed with caution.Chapters:0:00 – Overview2:49 – Battalion Mortars6:50 – Brigade Artillery13:27 – Group Army Artillery18:16 – Closing Thoughts
