China in Fallout games

For the country, see China.

This page lists Chinese gear, locations, and other items that appear across Fallout games, and intends to avoid bloating the base faction page.

Appearances

Fallout 2

The Shi inhabitants of San Francisco claim to be the descendants of the Chinese People's Liberation Army naval crew of the Shih-huang-ti which washed ashore following the Great War. The Chinese survivors managed to adapt themselves to the post-nuclear world, salvaging the submarine's supercomputer, christened the Emperor by the Shi. In time, the Shi dismantled much of the submarine, eventually turning San Francisco into a center of scientific research and higher learning.

Fallout 3

• In the year of 2277, traces of Chinese activity linger still throughout the Capital Wasteland. Chinese remnants can be found in various locations like the Chinese remnants spies at Broadcast Tower KT8, Chinese remnants soldiers at Mama Dolce's and the random location in which a Chinese commando can be found.
• The People's Republic of America Radio is a Chinese broadcast about victory over the U.S.A. Along with the Chinese radio beacon these radio stations can be listened to at certain locations in the Capital Wasteland.
• Many items such as the Chinese assault rifle, the Chinese pistol, the Zhu-Rong v418 Chinese pistol, the Chinese commando hat, the Chinese Army: Special Ops Training Manual, the Chinese officer's sword, and the Chinese jumpsuit all originate from China and were either intended for use by Chinese infiltrators or American fifth columnists. The fact that many Chinese weapons, clothing, and radio equipment can be found in the Taft Tunnel under the Jefferson Memorial implies the existence of Chinese spies below the Pentagon.
• Chinese commandos can be encountered during the Tranquility Lane and Operation Anchorage simulations.

Point Lookout

• When entering the area of Point Lookout, a Chinese covert submarine codenamed SSN-37-1A can be found stranded off the coast. This submarine was sent to "patrol hostile waters" and observe the military officials at Turtledove Detention Camp and the naval recruiting center.
• There is evidence of at least two undercover Chinese agents who were posted as wanted in the Point Lookout area. After being caught, the Chinese agents were sent to the Turtledove Detention Camp, which is one of the two places the Velvet Curtain quest starts. The two Chinese agents in Point Lookout were known as Agent Yang and Agent Jiang.
• There is also a secret Chinese Intelligence bunker in the area.

Fallout: New Vegas

• Chinese activity is no longer present in the Mojave Wasteland but evidence of the country's influence in the past can be found. Two sets of Chinese stealth armor are located in the Hoover Dam.
• Several Chinese Army: Special Ops Training Manuals can be found throughout the Mojave.
• The city names Nanjing and Shanghai are scrawled into the Desert Ranger combat armor helmet, left in the Stone Bones cave by Randall Clark. The original owner was Staff Sgt. R.B. Vickers, who wore the helmet during the Yangtze Campaign and used it to keep track of where in China he was operating and for how long.

Fallout 4

• Chinese activity is minimal in the Commonwealth during the year 2287, but there is a Chinese submarine named the Yangtze-31 still functioning despite taking significant damage. It is run by Captain Zao, a former Chinese Navy captain who has now become a ghoul. The rest of the crew have now become feral ghouls.
• The Yangtze-31 is also referenced on Diamond City Radio once the quest Here There Be Monsters has been completed, further highlighting the remaining Chinese presence. It is assumed by the Sole Survivor and confirmed by the Yangtze captain that the Yangtze was what launched the nukes into the Commonwealth in 2077.
• Chinese officer swords can be found in the Commonwealth.

Fallout 76

• Chinese items appear, as do their facilities, such as the Fujiniya Intelligence Base and Mama Dolce's Food Processing.
• Chief Scientist Quao was the leading scientist at the Fujiniya Intelligence Base.
• Ghoulified Chinese soldiers and commanders guard the Deep, a Chinese facility used to capture a Motherlode robot and drill into The Whitespring bunker.
• The remains of a PRC scientist from Fujiniya can be found in a random encounter.
• Agent Mochou is a spy for the People's Liberation Army encountered in Appalachia.
• Small pre-War drones called Liberators were deployed in Appalachia.
• Chinese operatives are mentioned in a holotape found in Green Country Lodge workout room.
