Top 4. Weapons for defence


1. HQ-2 Surface-to-Air Missile System:

The HQ-2 is a Chinese-made surface-to-air missile (SAM) system. It is an older generation system that has been in service since the 1960s. The HQ-2 was primarily designed to engage aircraft at medium to high altitudes and possesses a limited capability to engage ballistic missiles. It uses semi-active radar homing for targeting and has a range of around 40 kilometers.


2. LY-80 Medium-Range Surface-to-Air Missile System:

The LY-80 is a Chinese-made medium-range surface-to-air missile system. It is designed to provide air defense against a variety of aerial threats, including aircraft, helicopters, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The LY-80 features a network-centric system that integrates radar, command and control, and missile launchers. It has an estimated range of up to 70 kilometers and utilizes active radar homing for targeting.


3. Anza Man-Portable Air-Defense Systems (MANPADS):

The Anza series is a range of man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADS) developed by Pakistan. These shoulder-launched systems are designed to engage low-flying aircraft, helicopters, and UAVs. The Anza MANPADS utilize infrared homing guidance to track and engage targets. The specific capabilities and range may vary depending on the variant of the Anza system.


4. Crotale Surface-to-Air Missile System:

The Crotale is a French-originated short-range surface-to-air missile system. It is designed to provide point defense against aircraft, helicopters, UAVs, and anti-ship missiles. The Crotale system combines radar guidance with infrared homing to engage targets. It has a range of up to 12 kilometers and is capable of engaging multiple targets simultaneously.
