PLAAF & PLANAF H-6 Long Range Bomber thread

Hm?? All H-6N we know so far have a different serial number and a IFR-probe. Yes, it lacks the typical bulbous radome under the belley, but 1193 is a K!

Yes, I've seen that flat bottom, but the H-6N does not have the marked radome, which is from a H-6K and also the IFR-probe is missing:

... and again: No. 11093 is a H-6K, so he mixed a H-6K with some features of the H-6N:

I thought you would pay attention to the missile...

What missile???

Pardon, couldn't resist

 

[Deino]

Actually, I did and thought of an air launched IskanderM type thing... but then given our Teacherman @Deino is rather focused on verification of types/serial numbers... I watched it from distance...

Now tell us what it is? AirLaunched BM?

Sorry if my joke was not noted and yes for sure, I noted the AShBM, but for me the missing details of the H-6N and the wrong serial number have been more apparent than the missile itself.

I know, I'm a nerd on numbers.

Maybe H-6N is not so much on ASBM after all. The closed belly is more for Mach 4 drone rather than ABSM.
The ABSM maybe short enough to be fitted into close bomb bay of H-6K.

Indeed an interesting theory, however that won't fit to the fact (?) that the first operational unit of the WZ-8 is a H-6M unit.

Impressive ... at first sight I thought it would be a H-6J, but due to the lack of the ECM-pods it looks indeed to be a H-6K.
