The missile battery looks very very similar to French Crotale system which Pakistan had or still has it.
FM90, is a chinese development of Crotale. South Africa, which adopted Crotale un der the name Cactus, has an upgrade, which allows the system to use the SAHV-3 missile, essentially combining the Crotale with the IR seeker of the Darter AAM and a better, high-performance engine. SAHV-3 was developed into Umkhonto, a VL missile in use on the Valour class Meko-A200 frigates..

Also used in SPAAG and SPSAM turret, tested on 8x8 Rooikat combat vehicle. ALso put on T-72, forming the basis for the Polish Loara SPAAAG/SPAAM vehicles

S-350 Vityaz just has 40 km range. Similar to ly-80.
As I under stand, the S-350 system purpose is to replace the
S-300PS and S-300PT-1A., and complement other systems including the
Morfey,
S-400 and
S-500
Vityaz to replace S-300 air defense systems in 2014 - designer / Sputnik International
Compared to LY-80, it has double the number of missiles per launch vehicles, making the system better able to counter sustained attacks. And, it uses 2 types of missile, with different guidance modes, making the system less vulnerable to counter measures.
The 9M96 is a dual-role ‘hit-to-kill’ anti-missile and anti-aircraft missile originally designed for the S-400 system. The 9M100 missile . The smaller 9M100 is a short-range, IR-guided missile that can be used against aircraft, UAVs and cruise missiles and has been mentioned as both a SAM and an AAM.
Missiles
- 9M100,
- 9M96E or 9M96M
Range
- 9M100: 10 km max.
- 9M96E/9M96M: 1 - 40 km max.
Guidance system
- 9M100: inertial with IR
- 9M96E.9M96M: inertial with active radar terminal homing seeker
According to Almaz, Vityaz could replace older SAMs like the S-125 while adding multiple-target and anti-missile capabilities. According to information released in 2003, the system can be delivered in two configurations: a version optimised for protecting against high-precision weapons (cruise missiles, ARMs, smart bombs and tactical UAVs) able to simultaneous engage up to eight targets, and a multi-role version, in the former configuration the battery consists of a radar and up to four launchers with 32 "small" missiles each, while in the latter the heart of the battery is a mobile command post linked to up to two radars and up to eight launchers.

Uhm, that's also BUK....
If you had decision power to purchase system (for Pakistan) which you had gone for?
I'm leaning towards the very short range systems on the one hand, and longer range systems on the other. I like that 30mm gatling on 8x8, but there is also a nice truckmounted twin 35mm.
