HQ 9 / FD2000 spotted in Pakistan

[StormBreaker]

Can we all just ignore this topic now, if one of you decodes the pic, you are only helping india and their cheap media. Keep them guessing and involved, let’s see what they come up with on this

 

[Windjammer]

Don't know why but to me it seem rounded canisters of some surface to surface missile .... location is more important here to make a guess here

If it helps, the location is Kamra air base.

 

[Fawadqasim1]

Very hard to tell it can be something else.

 

[Zephyrus]

Umm hi, the launcher is in the position of being erected that's why it's like this.

The truck is parked near a runway while its the PA AD interested in the FD-2000.

Wouldn't it be better if PAF AD has them,while PA AD focuses on theatre and formation AD only.

The foremost threat that Pakistan anticipated and was given hint of, after 27 Feb 2019 Raid on IOK, was Indian retaliatory measures based on Cruise missile attack, few or a swarm to overwhelm PA/PAF AD. India sought it feasible since IAF had seen that PA/PAF AD units had not performed up to expectation on 26th Feb 2019.

Also there are a lot of AAA Guns (different calibers) in PA inventory, why do you think these AD guns exist in this era of warfare?

Are these AAA guns hooked up with radars and fire control systems? It would really increase response time and accuracy...making them very deadly.

Thanks for sharing this. One more question...I keep hearing mentions of Pantsir...does Pak already have it? Or is it just more speculation?

PA AD interested in the FD-2000.

Which one? HQ 9A, HQ 9B or HQ 9C?

I haven't seen Pantsir in PA AD Regts.

in worst case Buk's launcher can act alon against enemy which HQ-16 can't do.

Yep, that is the difference, but every coin has its two sides. China would prefer to choose HQ-17/A to do that job in emergency. And just as what I said before, HQ-16 is vertically launched, and that would help to shorten its response time against the targets, compared with Buk-M-3.

Everything is just depended on what you need.

But again, you still don't answer the question: How long does Buk-M-3 need to be deployed?

Russia have better system in comparison to HQ-16B (70km range) that is S-350E with 12 missile per launcher and 120km range of missile and similar to S-300/HQ-16 launching system of SAM.

 

[Fawadqasim1]

We need hq9c

So, are you comparing an apple with an orange?

So, are you comparing an apple with an orange?

Nope, those who are comparing Buk with HQ-16 are doing it, because Russian similar MR SAM is S-350E which have similar missile launch system as HQ-16 and both have similarities.
