Summary

Machine summary

At the 16th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition in Zhuhai (December 7–13), PLAAF Deputy Director of Political Work Gao Xiang announced the Air Force will display multiple types of improved and upgraded main combat equipment alongside new-quality combat force (新质作战力量) achievements, organized around a systems-based (体系化) framework spanning reconnaissance, early warning, air defense, airborne, and unmanned and intelligent systems. The article is a pre-show publicity release; its analytical value is as a record of how the PLAAF frames its public-facing posture — emphasizing iterative equipment maturation, AI and unmanned integration under the 'Digital-Intelligence Air Force (数智空军)' concept, and combat readiness — rather than as evidence of specific new platform introductions, which remain unspecified until the show opens.
