chinese designers have crossed a double-barreled 35-mm automatic gun with a three-axis tactical vehicle shaanxi. This installation, designed to combat air targets, was called PGZ09.

the people's liberation army adopted the type 90 anti-aircraft artillery system in the 1980s. it is based on technologies borrowed from the swiss gdf-002 oerlikon gdf system.

its guns have a rate of fire of up to 1,100 rounds per minute. The initial velocity of the projectile is 1175 meters per second. The effective inclined firing range reaches 4000 meters. The mass of a high-explosive shell is 550 grams.

Later, such guns were installed on the PGZ-07 tracked self-propelled gun, designed to accompany heavy tank and mechanized formations.

in turn, the "automobile" pgz09 serves in the so-called "medium" formations armed with wheeled armored vehicles (apcs, self-propelled guns, tank destroyers).

This ZSU is equipped with a multi-channel sighting system that can be used in stealth mode. It is intended to use projectiles with programmable detonation, which are more effective than traditional ammunition.

Military experts note that its major drawback is the lack of the ability to conduct effective fire while moving. Therefore, along with this machine for the PLA, variants based on armored personnel carriers were created in parallel, which passed military tests.
