In the Victory Day Parade in Beijing, China showed the world such a view of its strength, which made many leaders from Trump to Europe. For the first time in this parade, China put the HQ-29 anti-mesile system in front of the world, which is being called the ‘satellite killer’ of China. The specialty of HQ-29 is that it can destroy the enemy’s target not only in the air, but to space.

China introduced 6 major air defense systems HQ-11, HQ-20, HQ-22A, HQ-9C, HQ-19 and HQ-29 to the world in the military parade. This clearly shows that China is no longer limited to regional defense, but has reached a position to challenge the global power balance.

The specialty of HQ-11, HQ-20 and HQ-22A missile system

Talking about the specialty of China’s HQ-11, HQ-20 and HQ-22A missile systems, HQ-11 is mainly for terminal defense, which can destroy less distance cruise missiles, helicopters and drones. HQ-20 and HQ-22A are medium-distance anti-ai-circraft systems, which were first displayed publicly. They have the ability to prevent high altitude drones and modern fighter aircraft. These systems work strategically in the front row and backup for long distance systems like HQ-19 and HQ-29.

HQ-9C and HQ-19 Multi-Lear Ballistic Defense

HQ-9C is a multi-layer ballistic defense system, which can prevent air threats within the atmosphere as well as some ballistic missiles. The HQ-19 is considered equal to America’s THAAD, this terminal performs high-endosphere interception. It also has the ability to stop state -of -the -art weapons such as hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV). This Dhansu combination provides security to China’s strategic assets and challenges the enemy’s hypersonic abilities.

HQ-29 Advanced Anti-Ballistic Missile System

HQ-29 is China’s most advanced anti-ballistic missile system. Its features make it a game-chain in the new era of space war. This system can kill long distance ballistic missiles in space in the middle stage of their tragetize. Each HQ-29 interceptor is 7.5 meters long and 1.5 meters diameter. In comparison, HQ-19 is small. It can destroy not only the missiles, but also the Leo-Earbit (Leo) satellites. This is why it is called Satellite Hunter System. HQ-29 is equal to American SM-3 and Russian S-500 systems, and its capacity corresponds to the ASAT system such as the Russian PL-19 NUDOL. This dual capacity ABM (Anti-Ballistic Missile) and ASAT (Anti-Satellite) makes it a direct threat to the space-based structure of America.

HQ-29 and Space Power Balance

Due to HQ-29, now China is not limited to grassroots and air security, but is also making its strategic hold in space. It has been considered a threat to American Starlink, GPS, and Satcom Network. The US Army has the ability to eliminate command-end-control capabilities in sensitive areas such as South China Sea. Internationally, Militarization of Space is working to promote. This system not only strengthens China’s defense capacity, but also speeds up space arms race with countries like America and Russia.
