Design and development
Design and development
The QJG-02 is China's replacement for the Type 58, a direct copy of the Soviet KPV heavy machine gun. The QJG-02 features an indigenous design, which is similar to the Chinese W85 heavy machine gun. In 1990s, China began to develop new lightweight anti-aircraft gun, and the design was finalized in 2002. In 2004, China adopted the Type 02. The weapon uses 14.5×114mm ammunition, and can be mounted on tripods and vehicles. The whole system, including its low-profile, single-gun mountings, weighs 75 kilograms (165 lb). The rate of fire is 600 rounds per minute.
