Advanced Weapons Showcase Rapid Military Development at China's PLA Exhibition
An exhibition celebrating the 90th anniversary of the founding of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) opened in Beijing, presenting a review of the PLA's history and showing China's increasing military prowess through images and models of some of the country's most advanced military equipment.
Organized in chronological order from the Nanchang Uprising on August 1, 1927 — viewed as the beginning of the Communist Party of China (CPC) leading armed strikes against the Kuomintang — to this year, the exhibition is divided into eight parts covering major military events during the past nine decades.
President Xi Jinping and the six other members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee visited the exhibition at the Military Museum of the Chinese People's Revolution on Friday.
A straw hat belonging to former CPC leader Mao Zedong in Gutian in 1929 and a pistol used by former PLA veteran Zhu De in the Nanchang Uprising and other events are among the most valuable exhibits at the show.
