BEIJING, May 23 -- Recently, a combined-arms regiment under the PLA Xinjiang Military Command conducted a combat rescue and repair exercise at a training ground on the Karakoram plateau at an elevation of 5,300 meters. A new-type tracked armored engineer vehicle made its debut in a tank rush repair operation.
Compared with the old ones, the new-type armored engineer vehicle is additionally equipped with a twin-turbocharger device, for which its engine power has been greatly improved. Besides, its chassis is the same as that of the new-type main battle tank, more convenient for coordinated operations and maintenance.
