The QTS-11, officially the Type 11 Integrated Combat System and later also designated QDS-121, is a Chinese dual-barrel weapon combining a 20mm airburst grenade launcher as its primary armament with a 5.8mm QBZ-03 assault rifle as a secondary weapon. Built by Norinco beginning in 2011, it entered service with the People's Liberation Army in 2015, first issued to special operations units. Weighing between 5 and 7 kilograms and about 93 centimeters long, it carries an electronic fire control system with a laser rangefinder that lets the operator program a grenade to detonate at a set distance.
