HQ-64 missiles appeared in Sino-Russian military exercise
Data Figure: HQ-64 missiles appeared in Sino-Russian military exercise. HQ-64 is a semi-active radar-guided short-range air defense missile. Compared with the HQ-61, not only the missile performance has greatly improved, and through the application box storage and transportation, launch technology, greatly simplifying the logistics, Jian Shao of the external environment of the missile's Ganrao, increase the cycle carrying bombs Liang. The figure shows a four-mounted missile launchers. Guidance radar vehicles and other support vehicles.



It is published in Canada in July, "Chinese Defense Review" magazine, southwest China's air force is important to speed up the city's air defense weapon upgrades, for the two surface to air missile defense of Chengdu, in full dress up the new Red Flag -64 missiles, a move This means that an important industrial city in southwest China have a more robust "air defense shield."


Reported that the PLA air missile units consistent "active defense" strategy, advanced equipment, always give priority to the need to front-line border, aimed at "the enemy out." But with the increasing complexity of modern air combat, the Chinese mainland cities began to provide a better air defense weapons, flag -64 stationed in Chengdu, the performance of this trend.


"Chinese and" that the Chinese Air Force in Chengdu, surface to air missiles deployed near the red flag -64, Department of Shanghai Academy of Spaceflight Technology R & D, its technology from the Italian Alenia's "viper" -2,000 missiles, mainly for against low-altitude aircraft and cruise missiles. With anti-jamming capability of the missile with the "semi-active radar, the radio added," guidance system, a maximum range of 18 km. Each missile can simultaneously deal with 40 goals, track 12 targets, and 3 to intercept them.


Dress for the PLA Chengdu Hongqi -64 missiles, "Chinese and" to build its military power with India link, said India's new aircraft and ballistic missiles with the ability to attack China inland. Despite the overall development of Sino-Indian relations in recent years, good, but the Indian military's "hedge bets" strong thought, "China threat" is still the market.


Indian media earlier reported that the Air Force Su-30MKI fighters 18 deployed close to the ground in China Tis the pump Superfund, and plans will be able to carry 1.5 tons of warhead, a range of 3,500 km of "Agni" -3 missile deployment also front attempt to cover targets in western China. As the Indian side of these initiatives, in southwest China suffered a huge security pressure. "Chinese and" that it is in this context, the PLA was in Chengdu installation of new "red flag" to be prepared all the time.

A long time, there are several around the "hot spots", which led to the heavy task of China's national air defense. Fortunately, the tireless research by scientists in China accelerated in recent years, surface to air missile unit of hardware upgrades, red -9, -12 red flag, red flag -64 and so has the world's advanced level of new missiles in succession to his unit, which effectively improved the air-defense capacity.


"Chinese and" analysis said that the strategic direction of the west, the People's Liberation Army has been deployed in Yunnan Red -12 missiles, production is still small, long-range surface to air missiles were first red flag -9 supply of Lanzhou Military Region, in order to guard against the threat of U.S. military in Afghanistan . From this, China is actively respond to the use of advanced equipment, air threat, protect key domestic goals.
