Pakistan Army Officially Inducted LY-80 MR-SAM System

Actually it is more equal to BUK M3

A Buk M3 TELAR vehicle is fitted with radar, missile erector and launcher, and friend or foe identification system. It is operated by a crew of 4. TELAR carries a pod with 6 containerized missiles. Such modular approach speeds up reloading of the vehicle. Also it is significant improvement over older Buk systems, that carry only 4 missiles


The intercepter is more similar to new 9M317M missile of BUK M3.

No SARH missiles have a very very tough time intercepting a supersonic cruise missiles . Prove it otherwise

Both have their advantages, buk can move with armor while LY-80 can't do that, also Buk M-3 can hit 10km higher then LY-80 which makes it more capable against SRBM threats. While LY-80 can engage targets 360 degrees due to VLS configuration while buk can not do that.
 
Excellent addition to Pakistan's defence. Once again the Chinese come good for Pakistan.

HQ9b has KKV warhead, you are done.

Sooner or later, we will integrate S400 tech into HQ9 series development. The hybrid will be a monster. Have you ever heard of HQ26 anti-satellite SAM?

One of the thing that excites me about whenever China produces a new weapon system is that in most cases with very few exceptions, Pakistan will eventually be in a position to access that technology. This relationship we have with China will always stand us in good stead when dealing with our adversaries. The other thing is, Pakistan, like any other country, has deals which are secret and never made public. Imagine what else Pakistan has received from China but will never declare or declare in a staggered way.
 
Congrats on the induction and I think maybe we could also consider HQ-17 system in the future as well!
 
Its More Meant to Protect Pakistani Armed Forces rather than Just relying on PAF Systems , as the System can Move will Help Protect the columns which go deep inside enemy area from Ariel threats

You are right but its not as mobile as Buk M3 as it can not move with armour columns but it will be good to have for defending battlefield.
 
good development.. HQ-9 and Chinese ABM system should be next step..
