Do we know anything about the range of the HQ-9s on the different destroyers? Like 052c 052d 055, are they all the same or different variants?
At least 260km when quoted for export. Likely around 300km im reality under PLAN use.

I used to believe that it has a 125-200 km range (maybe the early ones that entered service in 2000 did, so did early export versions like T-Loramids). After the E-version of 260km, I came to understand why the US DoD classifies the HQ-9B as a 300km range class SAM.At least 260km when quoted for export. Likely around 300km im reality under PLAN use.
