Harbin Z-20F (S-70 clone)
Actually in 1984 China purchased 24 civilian version of the Blackhawk helicopters from Sikorsky. Fast Forward to 2019 and China does have a S-70 clone. Gee what a shock!:eek:o_O?

The landing ship flotilla conducted a maritime coordinated training exercise on that day, including such training items as long-distance transport of landing troops and day-and-night helicopter take-off and landing, etc. (eng.chinamil.com.cn/Photo by Qiao Chenxi)

Thanks BZ! - This looks like all the variants for the HJ-10 launcher vehicles. Is this for a display at a arms show?
(Sorry I should have asked if it is okay to rely to your post by saying BZ instead of your Bravo Zulu handle)

Isn't this the HQ-17A?
I remember reading on another forum (can't recall where at the moment) that the PLA GF was not that satisfied with the Tor chassis. That said, there have been quite a few images of the PLA GF Amphib CA Hvy BDE receiving the the HQ-17 when they trade in old ZTZ-63A for the newer ZTZ-05.
 
This is seemingly minor, but if the source is right, it's actually pretty interesting. These images show a PLAGF Type 96, unloading from a PLAN LCAC that is piloted by the PLAMC
