A video released by the PLA-affiliated China Military Bugle showcases PHL-191-launched airburst rockets, designed to attack personnel and lightly protected equipment.

The Chinese military aired footage over the weekend of YJ-20 hypersonic anti-ship missile launches, as joint US-Philippines-Japan drills heighten tensions in the disputed South China Sea.
