product description: |
The H-6K is the latest model of the H-6 bomber and an important part of China’s nuclear trinity. It was publicly unveiled on September 3, 2015.
The H6K was replaced with a low-fuel-consumption engine, and the aircraft also reduced weight and increased fuel tanks accordingly. The maximum range should be more than 8,000 kilometers, and the maximum combat radius is nearly 3,500 kilometers. Compared with the maximum load capacity of the early H-6 model of 9 tons, the carrying capacity of the H-6K has been increased to 12 tons. It is mainly used to mount new cruise missiles for attacking various long-range targets; Carrying laser-guided bombs and satellite-guided missiles for precision strikes on sea and land targets.
The advent of the H-6K has made it the core force of the Chinese Air Force’s offensive operations, and has made the Chinese Air Force the second reliable strategic strike force in China after the Rocket Force. In wartime, the H-6K can take off from a relatively safe inland base in China. Under the escort of forward-deployed fighter jets, its maximum range has been increased from 6,000 kilometers of the H-6 to about 8,000 kilometers, and its maximum combat radius exceeds 3,500 kilometers. Based on the long-range cruise missile Long Sword-10A with a range of approximately 2500 kilometers, the H-6K can deter a vast area including the US military base in Guam in the border area of China, which is what we often call the “second island chain.”
