The land based one may be comparable to DF-17, but it still lacks an air launched version which China recently tested on H-6N.

The LRHW has a range around 4,000km and possibly more, with accuracy of 6in to the target. Much longer ranger than DF-17. LRHW will also fit two missiles per truck, while there is only one DF-17 missile per truck.

US bombers will operate AGM-183 ARRW hypersonic missiles. These will actually achieve operational capability next year. A year before LRHW.

They should put 4 canisters per trailer instead of 2. 10 trailers, 40 missiles. 2 canisters only 20 missiles.
