Marine Littoral Regiment. Are you ready for this? Chinese have a new IFV. 8x8, turret with 30mm autocannon and ATGM, APS perhaps? Allegedly called ZBL20

Is the future of the Marine Littoral Regiment to be found, fixed and destroyed at the leisure of the enemy?

Remember the MLR has no attached air.  Has no armor.  Is the lightest infantry I've ever seen (outside the Rhodesian forces during their bushwars).

How are they to stand up to an armored or mechanized force that arrives by sea or air?
