QJG02 heavy machine gun Up until recently the most powerful machine gun in the PLA inventory was the 14 . 5mm Type 58 – a straightforward copy of the Soviet Vladimirov KPV , used on single , twin and quad AA mounts . Only recently has the PLA bothered with a replacement for this old , but still effective weapon , and in 2002 it adopted the new QJG 02 14 . 5mm HMG . This weapon is of indigenous design , and it looks somewhat like an enlarged W - 85 . So far it has been observed only on low - profile , single - gun AA mountings , which also can be used for ground applications . It is believed that QJG 02 heavy machine gun is already in service with some units of PLA . An updated export version of the gun , named QJG 02G , is being promoted by its maker , the Chinese arms factory No . 36 . The key difference between QJG 02 and QJG 02G is that the latter has the mount with detachable towing wheels . The QJG 02 can fire all types of 14 . 5mm ammunition , including the newest Chinese DGJ 02 SLAP ammunition with muzzle velocity of 1250 m / s ( 4100 fps ) and claimed armor penetration of 20mm at 50 angle at 1000 meters . Reliable information on this new machine gun is very limited so far . It is believed that limited production of the Type 02 HMG started in around 2004 or 2005 . The Type 02 is a gas operated , air cooled , belt fed , machine gun that fires from an open bolt . Barrel is quick - detachable and has a carrying handle attached to it . QJG 02 uses a rotary bolt locking system . The Type 02 is associated with a special low profile mount , which consists of an adjustable tripod with a turntable that hosts the gunner ’ s seat , traverse and elevation mechanisms , and the gun cradle with built - in recoil dampers . When traversing , the entire turntable with gunner and gun is rotated ; the rotation is controlled by a horizontal wheel located in front of the gunner . Elevation of the gun is controlled by another wheel , located to the left of the traverse control . The gun trigger is operated by the pedal . The entire system is said to be easily disassembled into five man - packs , each weighing 20 kg or less . The Type 02 is typically fitted with a special telescope sight , installed on a parallelogram mount well above the barrel . The sight mount is attached to the gun cradle .
