thanks for the tag , their missiles have shelf life which can be extended like in the case of crotale , It depends on missle it self how long it can survive but roughly we can say around 20-25 years

Nice, but long range air defence is still a major gap.

Remember a year ago I told u in an year we will public LY-80 here u go
And interesting thing is PA will follow PAF instructions to shoot down an AC

Any updates on long range SAM like HQ9? There was also news about some local long range SAM program with Turkey or China?

They will be here soon and many more of all three categories I mean short and medium and long

We already got l short and medium. Not sure if long range ones are worth it...how does the long range radar tell the difference between an actual missile or aircraft verses a fake signals acting like a missile or aircraft from hundreds of miles away? The long range missiles are very expensive and can't just be wasted on fake ew signals...

Just thinking out loud...

It's is complete science. And Long Range are needed. But one short range are not enough neither one medium range it would be various systems in each category.

I think dg ispr mistakenly wrote Long range instead of short to medium range. Isnt ly-80 the HQ-16 of china? 40 km range?

he made a mistake and told the truth

So is the LY80 basically China's answer to the patriot pac missile?

No. There will be a new missile corresponding to PAC-3.

HQ-19 ~ THAAD-ER
HQ-26 ~ SM-3
HQ-29 ~ PAC-3MSE
