China claims their new helicopter rocket is the best in the world

On June 22, test firing of a new rocket from the side of a helicopter, the model of which is not called, took place at the Alks training ground in the northern China autonomous province of Inner Mongolia. At present, the People's Liberation Army of China uses several types of attack helicopters, including the recently modernized Z-10 and Z-19.

This was reported by the newspaper Global Times.



According to the Chinese military, the new helicopter missile can be considered the "world leader", the best in the world.

The newspaper writes that the missile just hit the target. This marked her first successful test launch.

Although one of those who carried out the tests stated that the new ammunition was “leading the world,” Asia Times doubts that. It notes that the test report does not reveal the purpose of the new missile, nor its capabilities. There is no evidence that this weapon really is a world leader, and all conclusions are based on one trial. And to conclude that the "best in the world" missile for one test launch is too presumptuous.

Chinese military aviation expert Fu Qianshao told the Global Times on Wednesday that in order to be called the world's leader, an air-to-ground missile must have a very large effective range, an advanced guidance system that provides high accuracy, and a very powerful warhead that can penetrate a thick armor tank.

    They always claim to have the "best". However, they do not miss the moment, to spoil something from others. Everyone knows perfectly well that all the best Chinese, in fact, are not entirely Chinese, or not at all Chinese.

        I rarely get into such comparisons, but in this case I think that our anti-tank systems are better so far.

      We would have, otherwise the javelin still can’t tear off, despite the availability of samples

        And in order to tear off its own electronics you need a world-class. And with us, everything that’s not being sawn off is done, it’s cheaper to maintain them than production and the scientific base

        Why, excuse me, rip off stuff? Where to shoot from this garbage piece of iron? Carts and carriages are no longer USED in the armies of many countries, and against modern tanks "javelin" is USELESS. Although you have a chance to excel - rip it off, and then write in the comments about your "achievements" in ripping off the notorious old temple.

          Well, if the complex of the latest generation is a garbage can, then what are we fighting with? A garbage can?

              No, I’m not fighting. Not all of the latest generation. I saw it with my own eyes.

      They always claim to have the "best".

      Let them boast, you look and you will convince yourself of the same. And shooting at the firing range and shooting in combat conditions is a big difference.

      Exactly, their "best" while it comes from Aliexpress is already outdated or breaks in an emergency

      .... and nevertheless, they have their counterparts Spike and Javelin ... for all ranges. They produce modern IR matrices and optics. It is quite possible to expect such a rocket.

    All this talk about the "best in the world" weapon is not worth a dime until the weapon has shown itself on the battlefield. And we are talking not only about the Chinese, and not only about missiles. There have been many examples in history when the advertised weapon showed itself in a real battle (although at the test site and according to the stated performance characteristics it was "best of all") very badly.

    Yes, let them say, a tongue without bones. The main thing is how it will turn out in life. And for starters, let them at least learn how to make drills.

        You just did not take a conventional drill for metal, and the tile is drilled either with a diamond drill or, in extreme cases, with a carbide.

    What can the Chinese do? Only to assert. "Trump" was also a "super-duper" rocket to convince everyone. When there is NO, but really want to, then you SHOULD say what IS. Sometimes statements are believed.
