China Media Group (CMG) has unveiled its most impactful military updates of 2024, spotlighting major reforms and global strategic moves. At the forefront? The Communist Party of China (CPC) is doubling down on modernizing its armed forces to meet ambitious 2027 targets.
Key Highlight: The third plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee wrapped in July with a bold roadmap. The communiqué emphasized maintaining Party leadership over the military while accelerating reforms to achieve \"basic modernization\" of defense systems by 2027—the People’s Liberation Army’s 100th anniversary.
Analysts say this push aligns with broader goals to strengthen China’s global security role. While the full list includes global defense stories, the CPC’s focus on tech-driven military upgrades and governance stands out as a defining trend for Asia and beyond.
