China is accelerating research into humanoid robots for military use, with plans to deploy them on the battlefield in the future. Over 100 procurement records, patents, and military papers show the PLA's intentions. State-owned defense companies like Norinco have developed humanoids for sentry duty and reconnaissance. Chinese manufacturers account for 95% of global humanoid shipments. However, armed humanoid robots have not yet been deployed, with analysts estimating battlefield readiness in five to ten years.
