The most important thing is this:
The squad leader giving command using the digital tablet interface mounted on his chest
It has:
Beidou satellite navigation
Command and control interface for the squad,
A digital map of their area of responsibility

This photo was taken during the testing phase of the system over 2 years ago
Here are the 2 (relatively) old gear
QBB-95 squad automatic weapon SAW (light machine gun)
It's a nice SAW, but it lacks modularity in terms of scope options, the drum magazine's reliability is less than ideal

Which is why the QJB-201 is such a nice upgrade
It has:
Quick change barrel, a must due to the barrel gets hot during continuous firing
Can use normal magazine as well as the 200 round fabric soft ammo pack
The picatinny rail allows the machine gunner to any optics

120mm PF-98 unguided "anti-everything" rocket
It's good against armored targets as well as entrenched enemy target
PF-98A has a fire control system and a ballistic computer to guarantee a hit, provided the soldier used it correctly

The QBU-191 designated marksman rifle, a very crucial component of a modern infantry squad
The variable optics allows the marksman to lay accurate fire at the enemy regardless of range

The foregrip with integrated bipod is a potential standard issue, at least for some squad members
The QMK-171A 3x scope is now standard issue.
Standard issue scope is a must for modern army, but not every respectable military powerhouse can afford it

The QBS-09 automatic shot gun
Used for close quarter carnage, also handy when breeching locked doors

You notice all the members have helmet mounted night vision
Using a monocular (one eye) night vision as the standard issue, saves a lot of money
Another important detail, is that all squad members have earpieces, this points to an integrated communication system

The new standard PLA infantry squad, is now better equipped than other country's special forces
The PLA along with the US infantry is head and shoulders above everyone else
