Whatever it is, its the only (besides American) operational ABM system with capability to shoot down ICBM.
BTW your ABM capabilities is not even close to our 40 years old capabilities. You still never managed to shoot down a real ICBM in any single test, all your "midcourse interception" tests were against medium range ballistic missiles, that are easily shot down by operational S-400.
So current Chinese ABM capabilities:
- against ICBM - no operational systems, not even tests.
- against medium range ballistic missiles - only tests, not operational.
This hint that you do not know what you are talking about.did you know how to shoot down something like 40 times faster than speed of sound ?
Take your own advice: study.Did Russia ever shoot down a ballistic missile without a nuke head?
Kid study the difference between mid course and terminal interception, and level of technological requirement form them first then come to talk..
The target's speed is used by the interceptor to calculate the collision point, which is about predicting or guessing where the target is going to be and the interceptor just need to be at that point. If you ever done any hunting with a projectile weapon like the bow and arrow or a rifle, you will know what I am talking about: leading the target. Exactly the illustration above.
Knowing the 'how' of things mean a sound understanding of the theory. But execution is a different issue. Execution is where hardware limitation begins to degrade the goal. Take the tail chase or 'pure pursuit' scheme for example. A less powerful engine than the target's is a hardware limitation. In this case, you would not want to use your interceptor in pursuit but in head on collision. Same interceptor but in different scheme. Then there are other factors like sensors and computing power for maneuvering targets but those are different issues.that doesn't sound good at all for russian interceptor. it was reported they fired a few at the rock, but failed to stop it.
No wonder you dont have any clue about that.Did Russia ever shoot down a ballistic missile without a nuke head?

Where's the world shattering DF-41? I don't see it? Yeah! The darn chassis is back on the road, not the fake DF-41 which is in the museum or being used as a metal tunnel in the children's play area!
No wonder you dont have any clue about that.
You need to start your study from much simpler things before going to the area that is completly beyond your knowledge.

Yes,that's right.i like this name dong feng and especially it's meaning.

Russia did it? No, USSR did it.S-400 shoots down ballistic missile in terminal phase, it doesnt need to "midcourse incertept" anything. And S-400 can hit targets at altitude up to 185km. Please stop polluting military threads with your rubbish, you actually dont have any clue about weapon technology.
No one cares about that. Shoot down actual ICBM then we talk.
And here is a bit education for you. Russia performed first ASAT test in 1968. 40 years ago.

Yes, more than 50 years ago with a V-1000. But please continue the Chinese chest thumping contests of 'we are superior'.
To shoot down an ICMB you need to have an operational ABM system, not just conducticting some dubious "tests". There are only two countries that have operational ABM systems - US and Russia. Therefore Chinese capability to shoot down advanced ICBM in real life is currently zero.
