Users on Weibo is saying that this H6-J is carrying a ballistic missile under its belly...
Anyone knows what exact that is?

In the beginning, there's a car, maybe we could know the base from the license plate

Looks to be a Chinese Kinzhal. An ALASBM, if you will. Likely based on the DF-17.

Looks like an air launched ballistic missile. Nothing fancy at all like an AGM-183 or Kinzhal but with a more serious boost stage.

Does anyone have an estimate on the number of H-6Ns in service? The Military Balance (2020) by IISS claims that there are 4, but I'm not sure when this estimate was made. Thanks.
