The 333rd Coastal Defence Brigade of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Northern Theater Command (NTC) has deployed land-attack YJ-62 anti-ship cruise missiles (ASCMs) in a drill that took place in Haiyang, a coastal city southeast of the Shandong Peninsula in China.

According to the drill's video footage released by Chinese state-owned broadcaster China Central Television (CCTV), the brigade was seen exercising with four 8×8 WS2400 transporter-erector-launchers (TELs) – each equipped with three YJ-62 ASCMs – and an 8×8 battery command post vehicle, which is likely the standard battery configuration of the system.

The land-attack YJ-62 missiles – mostly seen equipped with the Eastern Theater Command and Southern Theater Command of the PLA – are likely deployed with an NTC unit for the first time.

The PLA's NTC is oriented towards the Korean Peninsula and Russian border security, including operations along China's northern periphery, and the Yellow Sea (West Sea).
