About 84 percent of the armament, to be showcased in the Sept. 3 military parade, has never been presented to the public before, said a senior military officer on Friday.

The Army, Navy, Air Force, Second Artillery Force and Armed Police will all debut their new armament, said Qu Rui, deputy director of the Office of the Parade Leading Team and Deputy Chief of the Operations Department of the General Staff Headquarters.

All of the armament are Chinese-made, added Qu.

A total of 27 armament formations of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) will parade through the Tian'anmen Square on Sept. 3 to mark the 70th victory anniversary of China's resistance against Japanese aggression?and the world anti-Fascist war.
