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.
