這篇提及的是央視節目<軍武零距離>所報導的HQ-17A野戰進程防空系統及遭美方制裁的中國北方工業集團生產之裝載反坦克飛彈的ZBL-09輪式步兵戰車。
"This week, the Global Times reported that the Xinjiang Military Command recently took delivery of China’s latest field air defense missile system. Reportedly, this is the fifth recent acquisition for the command in terms of new weaponry. The new air defense missile system is identified as the HQ-17A field air defense missile system.
In addition, the Xinjiang Military Command is also reported to have taken delivery of and begun operating a new infantry fighting vehicle (IFV), the North Industries Group Corporation (Norinco)-produced ZBL-09 (also called Type 09). The new IFV, which can carry anti-tank guided missiles, took part in a recent military exercise. "

從林芝到背崩的公路完成也令旁邊有三條公路等著蓋的印度提高警覺：
＂ The 67.22-kilometer-long highway was constructed at a cost of $310 million and took almost seven years to complete, according to Xinhuanet. It cuts the distance between Nyingchi and Baibung from the current 346 kilometers to 180 kilometers, and reduces travel time by eight hours.＂
＂In the pipeline are three major roads, the Arunachal Frontier Highway, the Trans-Arunachal Highway and the Arunachal East-West Corridor. However, work on these highway projects is still at an early stage.＂

"根據《德國之聲》報導，新加坡國立大學南亞研究所印度軍事專家約西（Yogesh Joshi）表示，對於印度在中印邊境增兵他並不意外，在軍事談判中常見的情況在於，當雙方在試圖達成協議時，他們也必須讓對方知道，他們有意願與資源可以延續衝突。
約西認為，這點對印度來說十分重要，中國解放軍在去年4月及5月曾對邊境發動突襲式行動，讓印度現在沒有被動空間，因為印度不能再失去更多領土，像中印邊境這樣的崎嶇環境，失土很難收復，所以對印度來說，只要派駐夠多軍隊，在未來可能衝突中的選擇也更多。
約西指出，印度戰略方針一向都是盡可能地威懾中國，如果此方針無法奏效，中國就會發動攻勢、奪取領地，因此印度近期這波部隊調動是為了堵住邊境缺口，未來若是中國再度發動攻擊時，印度也能迅速反擊。"
達到廿萬軍員的規模足以引起國際對此區情勢的注意:
"四位熟悉印度边境增军消息的人士告诉彭博社，在过去几个月中，印度已将部队和战斗机中队转移到与中国交界的三个不同地区。其中两人说，总的来说，印度现在大约有20万部队集中在边境地区，比去年增加了40%以上。"
印中的海軍軍備策略差異:
" in the first decade of the new millennium, both the IN and PLAN had set wheels in motion to pursue robust aircraft carrier programs. India recognized the need to overhaul their carrier force with newer, more capable ships, while China sought to procure the beginnings of a robust carrier capability."
沒想到印度海軍已經談妥這麼多軍事後勤協議了:
"Today, India has such military logistics agreements with Australia, Japan, the United States – the Quad countries – as well as with France, Singapore, and South Korea. India is currently in the process of finalizing such an agreement with the U.K. and in talks with other partners like Vietnam.
These agreements go a long way in expanding India’s military reach, especially maritime outreach and influence in various regions that are strategically important to India. On a practical note, it saves enormous time and reduces overall costs of the lengthy bookkeeping exercises that the militaries have to otherwise do with each visit, such as when the respective militaries are involved in operations like humanitarian assistance and disaster relief or even bilateral military exercises. "

無人機在中印邊界的前線運用:
"「今日印度報」（India Today）引述「知情人士」報導，印方已啟用「數目可觀」的蒼鷺（Heron）無人機，在阿魯納查省（Arunachal Pradesh）中印實際控制線（LAC）周邊山區日夜巡邏。"
不曉得還有沒有國家在印馬菲後面排隊抗議:
"馬來西亞外交部昨（30日）也發表聲明，拒絕中國這份新版地圖對該國外海的南海海域主權，聲明說「馬來西亞不承認中國在南海的主權主張，如其在二○二三年版標準地圖中所劃出涵蓋馬來西亞海域」。"
中國新地圖風波鬧很大啊~
"當東協峰會與東亞峰會在九月初召開的前一周，中國卻選擇對外公布其「一點都不能少」的新式中國地圖。除了既有的南海九段線外，這個地圖首次出現把台灣包括進去的第十段圖，也大剌剌的把中印爭論邊界通通畫為中國領土。此舉立即引發多國抗議，不僅台灣、印度表示強烈反對。
也首次看到東協的四個南海聲索國（馬來西亞、菲律賓、越南、汶萊），再加上印尼，先後發表聲明對中國表示不認同。雖然因為柬埔寨等中國在東協的盟國之故，此次無法在東協提出針對南海的共同聲明，但這次卻有出現東協四加一的個別國家對中不滿聲明，還包括了過去沒有發表過類似主張的汶萊，以及也是過去很少高聲抗議的馬來西亞，在這次跑第一表示反對，這都可說是在東協史上的首次。"
龍象之爭在南亞越發明顯:
[ “The competition between India and China in the Indian Ocean region has undoubtedly become more energetic,” said Malik, a former adviser to India’s foreign ministry. “The Modi government has sought to match China’s projects and influence by playing to India’s strengths, such as cost-efficiency.”
Indian lending for projects globally crossed $30 billion over the last two decades, senior Indian officials said. About half of that spending was for infrastructure in the South Asian region, the pace of which picked up in the past decade, they said.]
紐時這篇把中國走區別式首領路線而印度訴求平等式共榮路線的差異描繪得很有畫面:
"But after a year at the helm of the G20, India is relishing a moment of national momentum on the international stage while trying to maintain strong global south relations. Indian officials made clear that their success at the summit was shared with the other developing nations that rallied around India, especially Brazil, South Africa and Indonesia.
但在擔任G20主席國的一年時間裡，印度很享受在國際舞台上展示國家影響力，並試圖維持全球南方緊密關係的機會。印度官員明確表示，他們在峰會上與團結在印度周圍的其它發展中國家一榮俱榮，特別是巴西、南非和印度尼西亞。"
