2. YJ-18 missiles [2x1]
3. Gun "H/PJ-87B (100mm)" [1x1] (locked)

8. "Type 1130" [1x1]
9. "HHQ-10" [1x1]
10. "HHQ-16F" air defense [2x1] (locked)

Features:

New-generation Chinese stealthy guided-missile frigate. It is a further development of the Type 054A frigate with a larger hull and advanced equipment, which significantly increases its combat capabilities. The frigate is equipped with a large number of exclusive weapons for all combat tasks. For example, there is a dual slot for the Chinese TL-30C anti-radar missile, which is equipped with an anti-jamming system. In addition, there is another double slot for mounting any missile. The 100 mm calibre H/PJ-87B gun is a major upgrade of the Chinese naval gun and will impress with its excellent accuracy and comfortable reloading time. For anti-submarine warfare, the ship is equipped with advanced, exclusive YU-10 533mm calibre heavyweight torpedoes. These torpedoes feature excellent firing range, improved targeting and protection against anti-torpedo traps. A double slot for bomb launchers will significantly enhance the frigate's anti-ship and anti-submarine capabilities. The ship's air defence is provided by HHQ-16F silo-based missiles, a pair of H/PJ-17 autocannons and two points for free placement of air defence turrets.

Z-19E Kite Helicopter:

T3, available in the VIP Battle Pass.

Armament:

1. QJK99 (12.7mm) aircraft cannon. Suspended container with 12.7mm machine guns
2. Blue Arrow-9 AGM missile. Chinese AGM.
3. FS-70 aircraft launcher. Aircraft launcher for unguided rockets of 70 mm calibre

Features:

Export version of the Chinese Z-19 multi-role combat helicopter. This modification uses more composite materials to reduce the take-off weight of the vehicle. The helicopter is designed to engage air and ground targets. Two 12.7mm QJK99 machine gun mounts not only inflict a significant amount of damage, but are also extremely effective against air targets, capable of destroying any airborne target with proper marksmanship. The Blue Arrow-9 ATGM has a long enough range to comfortably engage targets compared to its counterparts, as well as good damage and missile speed. At close range, the 70mm calibre FS-70 unguided rocket launcher provides excellent launch accuracy, and these unguided rockets are not sensitive to IRCM.

J-35 Strike Fighter:

T3, available in the VIP Battle Pass.

Armament:

1. Type 25-1 (25mm) aircraft cannon. Chinese aircraft cannon of 25mm calibre.
2. CM-102A ASM. Chinese small-sized anti-ship missile based on the anti-radar version. Can be mounted on strike fighters and UAV
3. AKF-98A ASM. Chinese low-observable ASM. Does not respond to the release of heat traps
4. YJ1000-1 bombs. Chinese 1000kg laser-guided bomb

Features:

China's fifth generation low-observable strike fighter with improved flight and technical parameters. The fighter is equipped with advanced weapons to engage ground and surface targets. At long range, the aircraft can deliver laser-guided YJ1000-1 precision-guided bombs to the target. These bombs are notable not only for their ability to change target at any stage of the flight and their inability to be deflected by IRCM, but also for their significant damage. For medium range, the CM-102A air-to-surface missile with its fast guidance and reloading is perfect for spamming the target. For close combat, there is the traditional 25mm calibre Type 25-1 aircraft cannon and the proven AKF-98A low-observable air-to-surface missiles, which are also unaffected by the release of heat traps.

CH-901 Launcher:

T3, available in the VIP Battle Pass.

Features:

Chinese laser-guided munition launcher. It is the first manually-guided launcher of its kind, allowing the target designation to be changed at any stage of the mini-drone's flight, and delivering greater damage potential than other launchers of various types, not only because of its manual control, but also because of its lack of reaction to the release of IRCM.

Silent Hunter Anti Air Laser:

T3, available in the Premium Battle Pass.

Features:

China's 30-kilowatt laser air defence system. It is effective against all air threats, including aircraft and missiles.

Legendary Elements Camouflage:

Master the power of the four elements! Camouflage can be used for any ship in your fleet.

Jade Guardian Epic Camouflage:
