Operation Sindoor: During Operation Sindoor, Pakistan’s air defense system failed badly. China gave this defense system to Pakistan. China itself is also forbidden that its air defense system HQ-9B/HQ-16 flopped. India’s BrahMos missile was overshadowed by China’s defense system. According to reports, Pakistani officials have also complained to China about this.

Many posts have been shared on social media regarding China’s air defense system. It is being claimed that Pakistan’s military officials have complained to China after Operation Sindoor. They are angry due to not working of HQ-9B and HQ-16, but China is making excuses on it. He told Pakistan that this air defense system is not made for missiles like BrahMos. Pakistan suffered a deep loss during Operation Sindoor. He has been in shock since then.

Why did HQ-9B and HQ-16 fail in front of BrahMos

China has created its air defense system HQ-9B by looking at Russia’s S-300 and America’s Patriot system. It can be considered almost a copy. The HQ-9B range ranges from about 250 to 300 kilometers. It can target cruise missiles or long distance aircraft, but cannot track the missiles flying at a speed of Mac 3. The same problem is also with HQ-16. Its range is very less. It is an air defense system of about 40 to 70 km range.
