New thread, my very first thread. (Yipppe!)

The main goal of this thread is to document Air Defense (SAM systems) and maybe Radar systems of the Chinese forces. We also would be helping JJ in his work, as we can use our collective knowledge to Identify the Chinese Threat.

My posts would mainly be from the information from Jaidev Jamwal (Give him money), as I am not the smartest one, and he is one of the best OSINT / IMINT people from India on Twitter that I know.

Starting from Kashgarh;
39°32'15"N 76°02'22"E - 39.53727814 , HQ-9 Site. Visible (S-300 Style) SAM Launchers and Radar (HT-233 engagement radar?)
