The local time on July 27, 2025, the Cambodian locals took photos showing that the Cambodian army continued to bring dozens of Chinese-made Type 81 rocket launchers and RM-70 Vampire rocket launchers from the rear. The Chinese-made Type 81 rocket launchers equipped by the Cambodian artillery directly reached the front line and then fired fiercely at the Thai military positions. In fact, the Thai artillery also equipped a large number of Chinese-made rocket launchers, including the WS-1B, WS-21, SR-2, with calibers ranging from 122mm, 300mm, etc., and all are modular designs, with the rocket launch containers being replaceable after firing.
Both the Thai artillery forces and the Cambodian artillery regard Chinese-made rocket launchers as the absolute main force. However, unlike the Cambodian army, which has already launched a large number of Chinese-made Type 90B and Type 81 rocket launchers, the Thai army has not seen the WS-1B, WS-21, and SR-2 rocket launchers themselves. The conflict between Thailand and Cambodia is ultimately a regional battle, and neither side wants to expand the war, so the scale of the war remains controllable.
Some aircraft from Europe and the United States are indeed excellent, especially in single combat. Objectively acknowledging the excellence of their weapons is nothing big. As long as we have the strength and the way to cope with these excellent aircraft, we don't need to be afraid, and it also makes us appear more excellent. We must never be blindly confident, like the Indian Air Force, which believes that the Rafale is very powerful. The result is that the Pakistani Air Force defeated the Indian Rafale fighter jets with a system. In the India-Pakistan war, China indeed provided Pakistan with comprehensive support in information, network, communication, technology, early warning, etc. However, in the Cambodia-Thailand war, China does not support any side and does not take sides. According to the overall national strength of Cambodia and Thailand, Cambodia is definitely not a match for Thailand. If China takes sides, it would fall into the trap set by the United States. If the construction of the Cambodia Canal and the China-Thailand railway are operated, Chinese goods can bypass the Strait of Malacca and do not have to pay money to the United States. The current situation is what the United States hopes for.
