FB-10
FB-10 (Chinese: 飞豹-10) is a mobile short-range air defense missile system developed by the Shanghai Academy of Spaceflight Technology of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC).
The improved variant, called FB-10A, entered the People's Liberation Army Ground Force (PLAGF) service with the designation HQ-13 (Chinese: 红旗-13).
Unveiled at the 2016 Zhuhai Airshow, it features a 6x6 TEL with a phased array radar, optical sensor, and eight missile tubes. The engagement range is 10 kilometers (6.2 miles), and the engagement altitude is from 15 to 5,000 meters (49 to 16,404 feet). According to Chinese sources, the FB-10 missile is similar to the HQ-10 rolling airframe missile system with infrared/radar dual mode hybrid guidance system.
The FB-10A (PLA designation: HQ-13) missile has a range of 18 km (11 mi), an engagement altitude of 7,500 m (24,600 ft), and a dual-mode guidance system that consists of radio command and imaging infrared (IIR) homing. The radio and IIR guidance allow the missile to be more resistant against countermeasures.
The HQ-13 air defense system is mounted on the common Dongfeng Mengshi chassis. The launch vehicle carries eight HQ-13 (FB-10A) missiles, while the gun-missile vehicle (SWS3) carries a 35mm single-barrel autocannon with two HQ-13 (FB-10A) missiles. The missile systems are supplemented by the OW5-A10 high-energy laser weapon system to form a layered air defense network for People's Liberation Army Ground Force (PLAGF) light combined arms brigades.
