Trivia

  • In Battlefield 4, the patch on the PLA Assault's arm reads (安全员), which roughly translates to "security officer".
  • In Battlefield 4, the PLA Engineer is the only PLA member that wears full black uniform as default.
  • In Battlefield 4, the PLA Support wears an armored mask, though it is only cosmetic.
  • Oddly, the PLA Assault model has 5.56x45mm NATO STANAG magazines that are not used by the PLA in his chest-pouches.
    • This may be an oversight by the creators, confusing the export version of the QBZ-95, the QBZ-97 (which can use STANAG magazines), for the original weapon. 
  • In Battlefield 4's multiplayer, the PLA appears as the opposing force of both the Russian Ground Forces and the United States Marine Corps. This may cause confusion, as the PLA is controlled by Admiral Chang, who fights with Russia against the intervening US forces. Thus, in maps where the PLA fights Russian forces, they may have defected and/or are no longer controlled by Chang.
