صاروخ جديد يغير موازين القوى في بحر الصين الجنوبي

By Jordi Bou

August 16, 2024 - نشر البحرية الأميركية لصاروخ جو-جو جديد بعيد المدى للغاية في منطقة المحيطين الهندي والهادئ يهدد بالتغلب على تقدم الصين في المدى الجوي.

The AIM-174B, developedU.S.’s primary ship-launched interceptor, Raytheon SM-6, is the longest-range such missile the U.S. has ever fielded and was officially acknowledged in July.

The missile outranges China’s PL-15 missile as it can attack 400km. The long-range weapon is expected to help American jets by allowing them to stay far away from the targets during active operations.
