Pakistan officially inducts HQ 9 Air Defence system

[Bilal Khan (Quwa)]

I would assume they want a western system…SAMPT comes to mind.

SAMP/T can't happen. France.

However, there was a Bloomberg rumour a while back of possibly working with Turkey on the SIPER.

 

[HalfMoon]

someone said that it is a hybrid of S300 and Patriot with improved technology and maximum range varying from 100km to 300km.

It is Hybrid of S-350 & S-400

S-350 is S-300 with some tech back ported from S-500.

 

[War Historian]

sorry to say it my friend do you even know what is HQ9!

We know the HQ9 or not, leave this on us. You must remember, this system along with JF17 block 3 , AWACS in network centric warfare will roast your newly imported God "rafale"

 

[Muhammad Saftain Anjum]

then why china itself had ti buy S400?

Is there any latest news that China is still buying Russian Defence systems?

Last time I heard about Chinese S400 ,they bought it long ago ( somewhere near 2014 they made agreement with Russia).plz inform about latest info in case I missed it

But ASTER-30 was offered to Pakistan and if we can buy CAM-ER then why not latest block of Aster-30 for PAF.

 

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

A great achievement! Couple it with the land, air and sea based long range EW systems you have an effective AD system....

@serenity if China is using S-400 surely its not as good as some of the PDFers are claiming it to be?

China buys things like S-400, SU-35 etc. to ensure that the equipment that they are building like J-20s, HQ-9 etc. are superior to the competition.

I guess ISPR press release and video has been leaked prematurely. I have checked ISPR twitter and website and mainstream media. No official news released so far.

Some ISPR employee got excited and leaked a press release and video before it was going to be reported


P.S. Just checked they posted officially on website 1 mint ago

 

[doorstar]

Mashallah, another good day for Pakistan and bad news for our enemies.

I do hope that you don't mean bharat. according to quaid e ahzam saani "hum ek hain"

General Qamar Javed Bajwa, Chief of Army Staff (COAS) visited Army Air Defence Centre Karachi today . On arrival COAS laid floral wreath at Shahuada monument.

According to ISPR, COAS witnessed commissioning of state of the art Chinese origin HQ-9/P HIMADS (High to Medium Air Defence System) into Pakistan Army Air Defence. Lieutenant General Hamood uz Zaman Khan; Commander Army Air Defence Command briefed COAS about strategic weapon system.

Induction of HIMADS will significantly enhance Comprehensive Layered Integrated Air Defence (CLIAD) shield of aerial frontiers of Pakistan as the system is fully integrated through a well-knit Digitised System on its inventory. Capable of intercepting multiple air targets including aircrafts, cruise missiles and Beyond Visual Range Weapons at ranges over 100 kilometres with Single Shot Kill Probability, HQ-9/P is considered as a strategic long range Surface to Air Missile (SAM) with remarkable flexibility and precision.
Speaking at the occasion, COAS said that induction of high-tech systems will make Pakistan’s air defence impenetrable in the emerging threat scenario. Highlighting the criticality of air defence in the overall defence of motherland, COAS said exemplary synergy between Pakistan Air Force and Pakistan Army Air Defence makes country’s air defence impregnable. Pakistan–China strategic partnership and defence collaboration is a factor of stability in the region, COAS remarked.

Senior officials from China were also present on the occasion, the ISPR added.
