The '''Type 81''' is a family of Chinese assault rifle and light machine gun designs developed in the late 1970s and finalized in 1981. Despite common misconception as being manufactured by Norinco, the family of weapons was actually manufactured by Factory 296, now known as Jianshe (a subsidiary of the [[China South Industries Group]]); however, small numbers of Type 81s were exported to the west by Norinco (not to be confused with Norinco Group), under their Norinco branding. | |||

QTS-11
The QTS-11 (formally the "Type 11 Individual Comprehensive Operation System"; given that this doesn't abbreviate to "QTS", it's not clear what QTS actually stands for) is an experimental derivative of the QBZ-03, in the same vein as the XM29 OICW and similar projects; featuring an integrated single-shot bolt-action 20mm grenade launcher and laser range-finding system, it is capable of using programmable airburst ammunition to engage targets behind cover, along with an attachable computerized sighting system that can link up to a camera display in the user's helmet to let them shoot around corners.
It made its first phyiscal public appearance in 2018, though photographs and video clips showing the weapon had irregularly appeared on the Chinese internet and on Chinese government sources since at least 2011. It is unclear when its development began; upon its initial appearance, many Western media sources called it the "ZH-05", though where this name actually came from is anybody's guess. The weapon has apparently seen some field testing with PLA special operations units, though given its cost and complexity, it is unlikely to see wide-scale adoption.
The transport case markings shown in a series of undated internet photographs of the QTS-11 indicates that the weapon was made by No. 208 Research Institute (Chinese: 二〇八研究所), a subsidiary of China South Industries Group.
