This is possibly one of the weirder "military flex" items. The only people who were hyped up about hypersonic weapons were people who know nothing about how Radars and anti-missile defense systems work. Sure the US is re-developing such capabilities, but it's a case where hypersonic weapons with a HGV always have been more of a niche capability for our purposes. Our sub-sonic arsenal is far more practical for most(practically all) targets. Which makes their announcement that they can intercept a HGV something of a headscratcher. Who are they trying to intimidate and/or impress with that? Okay, scratch that, there is somebody they might be trying to impress. Countries that cannot buy US/NATO defense gear, but who no longer trust the Russian gear given its performance in Ukraine. Expect the HQ-19 to be available for export and to compete with the S-400/S-500 systems from Russia.

2024-12-02 22:07:39 +0000 UTCWait, the Wumao brigade has been telling us the HGV's are impossible to intercept. But now the HQ-19 is supposed to be able to intercept them? That's going to be an interesting recursion problem for their scripting going forward. They're simultaneously impossible to intercept, but also possible to intercept because China would never lie about their capabilities.

2024-12-01 20:42:02 +0000 UTCUh huh, but they ain't got anything near the SR-72,,,the new Blackbird that will go Mach 8 and can be over Beijing in the wink of an eye. Somethings are beyond them...make that the SR-71 also! And does their J-35 have the command controls of our F-35? That is a very unique thing with it...
