The latest official air show schedule leaked on Chinese social media.
Highlights
November 15-17, The last air show simply showed “航空工业 Aerospace Industry” and lasted 25 minutes.
According to traditional Chinese culture, this is the most important one. This means that the officials are hiding a big surprise at the end. Will it be H-20?

That’s another surprise: A new export J-10CE (J10CE9001) … and again a bit strange: Being a Batch 9 - and not 09?? - aircraft itself is not strange, but why are the first ones for export a dedicated Batch 01CE and here they are as it seems included into the regular Batch order?

The j10ce produced by Guizhou Aircraft Company also has good assembly technology
Well, please forgive me if I see it a bit in a different way! Technically it is a CH-9 like this one below or a variant of it like this one:
The fact that the PLAAF or PLA in general allocates different designations for them in service like the Wing Loong I is the GJ-1, the Wing Loong II = GJ-2 and the CH-4 is the KVD002 makes it clear, that also the CH-5 in PLAAF service has an yet unknown name and thsi one will get a new service designation too.
Since when is the J-10C produced by Guizhou Aircraft Company? I know this has been rumoured since years, but so far none has been seen there being produced not even standing at the factory area!
Also, if I'm not mistaken the first time a J-10CE (at least briefly) was shown without the radome revealing a glimpse onto its AESA or at least cover of the radar!

Here come the smoke bombs.

========================================
This is a strong hint that there is a surprise behind it.
It looks like the military is betting big on this year's Zhuhai Airshow.
Is it too late for me to book a flight to Zhuhai? .................

They didn't say exactly when.
You might want to take a closer look at the picture I posted in #347 and note the part I boxed in red in the picture.
According to the tradition of Chinese culture, the last program is the absolute core program. In Chinese, it is called “压轴戏” or “攒底”, and is the centerpiece of the entire show.

China to display HQ-19 surface-to-air missile system with ballistic missile intercepting capabilities at airshow for 1st time

The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Air Force will for the first time display the HQ-19 surface-to-air missile system at the upcoming Airshow China 2024, to be held in Zhuhai, South China's Guangdong Province from November 12 to 17.
Featuring large combat-protection coverage, strong defense penetration and countermeasure capabilities, the HQ-19 is China's new-generation surface-to-air missile system, and is mainly used to intercept ballistic missile targets in a region, China Central Television (CCTV) reported on Thursday.
The launch vehicle of the HQ-19 uses a highly mobile 8x8 wheeled chassis, and each vehicle is equipped with six interceptor missiles stored in storage-transport-launch integrated launcher tubes, CCTV reported, noting that the interceptor missiles use cold launch.
Judging from the design of the self-adaptive launch pad at the rear of the launch tube, the HQ-19 is launched at a large angle close to vertical, CCTV said.
This indicates that a higher level of technology has been applied in the weapon, the report quoted experts as saying.
With the characteristic of "strong defense penetration and countermeasure capabilities," the HQ-19 is able not only to intercept conventional ballistic missiles, but also to counter hypersonic glide vehicles, maneuvering in the atmosphere to penetrate defense, and is capable of intercepting targets at various speeds with a large range, CCTV quoted experts as saying.
These traits showed that the HQ-19 has reached an advanced global level, experts said, according to CCTV.
Chinese military expert Zhang Xuefeng told the Global Times on Thursday that the HQ-19 can generally be described as a dedicated anti-ballistic missile system, while the HQ-9 and the HQ-22, which are Chinese surface-to-air missile systems previously announced to be in service with the PLA, focus more on anti-aircraft missions and have less range in anti-ballistic missile missions.
Zhang pointed to ballistic missile threats in recent conflicts elsewhere in the world, noting that conventional air defense missiles showed limited efficiency in countering ballistic missiles, which is why a regional air defense system dedicated to ballistic missile interception is needed.
The HQ-19 has further enhanced the PLA Air Force's air defense and anti-ballistic missile capabilities, and is just as significant as the J-20, Zhang opined.
