State-owned broadcaster China Central Television (CCTV) revealed in mid-January that the People’s Liberation Army Ground Force (PLAGF) is operating a new tracked all-terrain vehicle (ATV) to provide logistics support to troops deployed in hard-to-reach high-altitude areas.

中国中央电视台（CCTV）1月中旬透露，中国人民解放军陆军部队（PLAGF）正在操作一种新型履带式全地形车（ATV），为部署在难以到达的高海拔地区的部队提供后勤保障。

In a news report published on its js7tv.cn website, CCTV said that the four-door vehicle, the designation of which was not disclosed, can be used to supply troops stationed in plateau regions at altitudes of more than 5,000 m above sea level.

中央电视台在其中国军视网（js7tv.cn）发布的新闻报道中说，这种四门车辆的名称未披露，可用于向驻扎在海拔超过5,000米的高原地区的部队提供补给。

 

The ATV, which was shown towing an open-top tracked rear module, is equipped with caterpillar tracks made of metalloid, can climb slopes with an inclination of more than 35°, has an average speed of 40 km/h, and can deliver up to 1.5 tons of supplies, according to CCTV. Both modules have evenly spaced road wheels on both sides.

据中央电视台报道，这辆全地形车（ATV），牵引的是一个敞开式履带式后部模块，配备了由非金属材料制成的履带，可以以超过35°的倾斜度爬坡，平均时速40公里/小时，最多可以运送1.5吨物资。两个模块的两侧都有均匀分布的负重轮。

 

The state-owned Global Times newspaper reported that the recently delivered vehicle, which appears to be armoured and was shown painted in PLAGF camouflage, has entered service with the PLAGF’s “plateau transportation troops”: a euphemism used by state media that often refers to some of the troops operating in either the Tibet or Xinjiang military commands.

官方的《环球时报》报道说，这辆新近交付的车辆似乎是装甲车辆，上面涂有中国人民解放军陆军（PLAGF）迷彩，现已在中国人民解放军陆军（PLAGF）的“高原运输部队”服役：这是官方媒体经常使用的委婉说法，通常指在西藏或新疆军区作战的部队。

 

CCTV provided no further details about the vehicle but it appears to be based on the JM8 ATV from Chinese company Guizhou Zhanyang Power Heavy Industry that was first identified by Janes in 2015.

中央电视台没有提供有关该车辆的更多详细信息，但它似乎基于中国公司贵州詹阳动力重工有限公司的JM8全地形车（ATV），于2015年由简氏（Janes）首次确认。
