how many HQ-19 systems are in service? IISS 2024 does not report any HQ-19 and yet is is supposed to be in service since 2017.

IMO DoD has a fairly good idea the numbers just from satellite imagery of the TELs, associated radars and fire control as well as any testing of system. But their China report is extremely vague and some content is even copied and pasted from prior years.

Perhaps networked cameras are the future of stealth aircraft detection and tracking.

Again Stephen Chen. Not sure if it's real.

China tested its next-gen radar, which managed to thwart a saturation attack consisting of 16 precise ballistic missiles against a single target.
