On October 1, 2009 (August 13, 2009 in the lunar calendar), the 14th military parade of the Republic of China. At 10:00 am on October 1, 2009, the 60th anniversary celebration of the founding of the People's Republic of China was held in Beijing, and a variety of new weapons were reviewed. This was China's 14th and first military parade in the new century. The 60th National Day military parade of the People's Republic of China, new weapons, new equipment, and new teams once again shocked the world with magnificent and majestic momentum, and also witnessed the growth of New China and the development and expansion of the People's Army. On October 1, 2009 at 10:00 am, the National Day military parade Dozens of equipment squadrons passed through Tiananmen Square with majestic momentum. This was the largest panoramic display of Chinese military equipment in the 60 years since the founding of New China. The reference troops include both old units created during the Red Army period and new arms that have not been established recently. There are both heroic teams that fought bloody battles in the war years and typical troops that stand at the forefront of military reform. There are both veterans who have participated in previous National Day capital military parades and new faces who made their debut on the parade ground. The displayed equipment is all new domestic equipment selected from all units of the army. The quantity, quality and informatization level have reached a new level, and some have reached or exceeded the world's advanced level. In particular, none of the equipment squads in this military parade are imported equipment, which will showcase the achievements of the informatization construction of Chinese military weapons and equipment, and demonstrate China's ability to independently innovate in weapons and equipment construction. Whether it is land, sea, air, second artillery, armed police and other military forces, or armored, airborne, air defense and other professional forces, whether it is tanks, artillery, missiles and other combat equipment, or radar, communications, logistics and other support equipment, all will be displayed in this military parade. The reference elements are more complete, the types of equipment are more diverse, the specialties of the military are more comprehensive, and there is a strong combination. The reference troops also highlight the "three-many" characteristics of many fine traditions, many historical honors, and many major tasks completed. One-third of the reviewed teams have participated in earthquake relief and fighting against rain, snow and freezing disasters. Seven troops participated in the support and security of the Beijing Olympic Games. Five troops participated in joint military exercises. One unit participated in the founding ceremony. Three troops participated in the 35th anniversary parade of the National Day. Seven troops participated in the 50th anniversary parade of the National Day. In particular, an equipment team of the Beijing Military Region participated in all 13 National Day capital military parades, including the founding ceremony, the 35th anniversary of the National Day, and the 50th anniversary parade. This year is the 14th time to see it. In addition, the armed police force will also be displayed in clothing for the first time. Among the first armed police equipment squadron to appear, the public appearance of the Chinese armed police "Snow Leopard Commando", which has only been established for two years, will be a major highlight. According to reports, the team is mainly drawn from the "Snow Leopard Commando" of the Chinese Armed Police. On August 29, 2007, the "Snow Leopard Commando" was officially established. Naming this anti-terrorist elite force with "Snow Leopard" requires the members to have the speed and bravery of the Snow Leopard. In the event of terrorist attacks and emergencies, they will respond quickly, deal with quickly, and destroy the enemy in an instant. Since its establishment, the "Snow Leopard" officers and soldiers have successfully completed the national "Great Wall" series of anti-terrorism exercises, Sino-Russian joint anti-terrorism exercises, Chinese embassy guards in Iraq and Afghanistan, Olympic security and other major tasks. They have successfully completed 223 accompanying guard tasks such as escorting ambassadors to negotiate and handling hostages. The role of "sharp knives" and "fists" has become increasingly prominent. Military police commanders from 25 countries and regions, including Russia, France, and Israel, visited the team one after another.

The military parade has always been regarded as the best way to show national prestige and raise military prestige, and it is also an important form to establish national self-confidence and pride. The Chinese People's Liberation Army has always attached great importance to military parades. After the founding of New China, according to the decision of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, military parades were listed as an important part of the National Day ceremony. From the founding ceremony in 1949 to the 10th anniversary of the founding of New China in 1959, China held a large-scale National Day military parade every year in Tiananmen Square, which was held 11 times before and after. 2. The military parade is the army's report to the motherland and the people. The National Day military parade can show the great achievements and new features of our army's modernization and regularization construction, show the army's strong confidence in safeguarding the security and unity of the motherland, and promoting world peace and development. It is also a window to show the world China's strength and national cohesion. Therefore, the military parade has always been considered the best way to show the country's prestige and promote the military's prestige. 3. The 60th anniversary parade of the National Day is a concentrated display of the achievements of the Chinese army's informatization construction in the past ten years. Since the 1990s, the Chinese People's Liberation Army has continuously increased the pace of building an "information-based army and winning information-based wars". On the basis of introduction and absorption, a large number of information-based weapons and equipment with international advanced level have been developed, which has greatly improved the joint combat capabilities of land, sea, air and second artillery. The 60th anniversary parade of the National Day is not only a test of our army's training level and combat ideology, but also a window for the development of our army's weapons and equipment. Its weapons and equipment have become an important highlight of the parade. 4. The People's Liberation Army, which has advanced by leaps and bounds, has fully realized mechanization and is gradually moving towards informatization. Just as the cavalry phalanx withdrew from the military parade, we will also wait and see whether the towed vehicle phalanx will complete their historical mission at the 2009 military parade. After all, the towed weapons that represent the motorized era can no longer reflect China's advanced military development level. If the 1999 military parade showed people a People's Liberation Army moving towards informatization, then in 2009 people should see a People's Liberation Army that is increasingly confident on the road of informatization. 5. The 60th National Day military parade is an effective means to deter hostile forces at home and abroad in the context of the global financial crisis. It was 10 years ago that China last held a National Day military parade. In the past 10 years, China's modernization has made rapid progress, and its national income, economic strength and even military strength have all increased significantly. In peacetime, another main function of the military is to deter, and military parades are a common means of deterrence. It is an important tool for the country to use bloodless military methods to solve military and political problems. The imposing People's Liberation Army of China is an absolute deterrent to those hostile forces at home and abroad who want to challenge China's core interests and territorial sovereignty. Just like the Beijing Olympic Games, let us jointly look forward to and witness the thunder and thunder that passes through Chang'an Avenue on a positive step.
