A Chinese Type 63 APC entering Cao Bằng, Vietnam, February 22nd, 1973.

The Type 63 APC is a Chinese APC, one of China's first armored vehicles ever built fully by itself. It entered service in the 1960s with the People's Liberation Army, and saw export sales to 14 countries, notably Iraq, North Korea, and Vietnam. Vietnamese Type 63s, designated K-63 in Vietnamese service, entered service in December 1971. Less than 8 years after this, Type 63s were part of an invading Chinese force into northern Vietnam, where they were a part of heavy fighting and suffered in the rugged environment.

The civilian crew of a Pan Am 747 chartered by the US DoD to transport troops to the middle east for Operation Desert Storm poses with a disabled Iraqi tank and an oil fire. Ironically, within a year Pan Am would go bankrupt due in large part to the hike in fuel prices brought on by the war. 1991

It's possible to snowboard in hanfu, and it's possible to ski in full armor weighing 132 lbs (60 kg).

This particular kind of armor was used in Jīn/金 dynasty (not the same as Jìn/晋 dynasty btw) heavy cavalry, commonly referred to as "铁浮屠" or "Iron Buddha".
