World News See other World News Articles Title: China against Turkey by providing the anti missile FD-2000 air defence system to Damascus. According to the Chinese news website sina.com, after the several Israeli attacks to Syria by its airground missiles and the partially failure of the Russian air anti missile defense , Syria could make use of the Chinese FD-2000 anti-missile system defence of long-range. According to the Chinese news website sina.com, after several attacks of Israel with air-to-ground missiles and some failed results with Russian S-300 and Pantsir-S1 against air threats, Syria could use Chinese-made FD-2000, an export version of the HQ-9 advanced long-range air defense missile weapon system. Russia has provided Pantsir-S1 and S-300 air defense missiles systems to Syria, but not really the latest version using a new generation of radar to detect and tracked air targets and old electronic systems lead to poor anti-jamming capabilities. The first generation of Russian-made S-300 is able to destroy tactical missiles with ranges of up to 300 km at distances of up to 30,000 m. The armament of Pantsir-S1 consists of twelve 57E6 surface-to-air guided missiles and two 2A38M30-millimetre automatic guns developed from the two-barreled 30mm GSh-30 gun. It is provided with multi-range radar capable of detecting aerial targets with an effective surface of dispersion of up to 2-3 square meters at a distance of more than 30 kilometers and tracks them down from a distance of over 24 kilometers. China could offer the delivery of FD-2000 long-range air defense missile systems to Syria. The HQ-9 is a medium-to-long range air defense missile system designed and manufactured in China by the Defense Company CPMIEC (China Precision Machinery Import & Export Corporation). The HQ-9 system is designed to track and destroy aircraft, cruise missiles, air-to-surface missiles, and tactical ballistic missiles. The FD-2000 is the export designation for China's HQ-9 air-defense system. It is a medium-altitude, medium-range design intended to provide protection against aircraft using 'hide-shoot-and-scoot' tactics to avoid any electronic countermeasures or anti-radiation missiles. The export version of HQ-9 provides extra anti-stealth capability by incorporating YLC-20 passive sensor as an option. The FD-2000 missile is armed with a 180 kg warhead, has a maximum speed of Mach 4.2 and a maximum range of 125 km up to an altitude of 27 km. The missile has a proximity fuse with an effective range of 35 m, which goes active when the missile is 5 km away from its target. Poster Comment: China sold an older version of the HQ-9 to Iran years ago. This is an updated version. Iran has superior missiles and could incorporate that into this system giving it several times faster speed than Mach 4.2 and much higher altitude. Iran will get this from Syria. Hezbollah might even get a cheap version to shoot down Israeli jets. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest

Wonder whether the Russian system failed or whether the Russians would not permit the system to be used.
Maybe both. But what they sold Syria and Iran has deficiencies. But, as I said, these new systems from China will upgrade both the Iranian and Syrian air defenses. The Russians have a huge Jewish Lobby.

Putin seems to be scared of both Erdogan and Israel.
More of Israel than Erdogan who is crazy. He thinks he is building a new caliphate.
