The new FK-3000 air defense system in the People's Liberation Army of China
Beijing has launched the introduction of the advanced FK-3000 air defense system, designed to counter massive drone attacks. The system was first introduced at the Zhuhai Air Show in 2022 and was recently demonstrated during rehearsals for the military parade.
The FK-3000 system is focused on neutralizing low-altitude swarms of disposable drones, similar to the Iranian Shahid drones, which are actively used in various modern conflicts. This indicates the growing attention of China to technologies for countering new formats of aerial threats.
The deployment of the FK-3000 underscores the strategic importance of enhancing China's air defense system in the face of rapidly changing threats. The installation of such systems increases the protection of key facilities and troops from modern high-tech drones.
