Wrong thread, this is the anti air gun system thread not the SAM thread. However this is not a new system but a simple HQ-7 (Crotale).What new model is this?View attachment 76262
Greetings!
I've been researching the PLA's anti-air gun system, I've researched it in several sources, this would be the current composition:
HQ-6A - range 2.5-3.5 km
PGZ09(Type 09) - 3 km range and 4 km altitude
PGZ95(Type 95) - The cannons(2.5 km range and 2 km altitude). QW-2 Infrared Missile (6 km range and 3.5 km altitude)
BK1060 (SPAAG) - 4 km range and 3 km altitude
SWS2 - range 4 km and altitude 3 km
Is this the complete PLA system employed today?
Wouldn't the HQ-6A be the terrestrial CIWS version? Well, I saw that the LD-2000 version is the export version.Yeahhh, but take out HQ-6A as it is a SAM
It seems that PLA still advancing and producing anti air gun systems quite seriously, Type 09, BK1060 and SWS2 are pretty new and high tech
It seems that BK1060 (SPAAG) is in limited service under the name PGL 12. However, the PLA is not satisfied with this SPAAG. That's the reason they replaced it with the 25 mm Gatling type anti aircraft vehicle.
