Do we know the combat radius of the H-6K?

Do you think you can get the true answer？

Surely not, but at least a guess! ... for the earlier H-6 variants 1800km is mentioned.

Weight reduced, turbofan replaced turbojet and higher thrust achieved. I guess it will put at least 2500km.

From the latest info I got, there are indeed already 4 at Guiping-Menshu (8. NAD/23. AR STC) and it seems as if they arrived between 19 May and 4 September but quite interesting, they are only H-6KH or H-6J and not the probe-equipped AShBM carrier H-6N.
