while this one is the ZBL-09, its like a chinese stryker.

Looks like an anti air vehicle to me. Or are those tow equivalents? Big gun it looks like also?
There wouldn´t happen to be any refs of PLA huds/vehicle displays would there?
The only ones I can´t find any for.

dont think so, single 25/30mm cannon, crew compartment at back, missiles look similiar to AT-3 Sagger, they are also way too short for AA missiles

Shoulda paid more attention to that post then
Yeah, that's the "new" ZBL-09... final product of the VN1 project, this thing has actually been around for quite a while... many has been spotted as early as 2 years ago doing road tests. There's several variants of this thing. The one in the picture is the troop carrier with the 30mm cannon with 2 HJ73C or D missile. Note, this is the same turret from the ZBD2000 AAAV .
