China reports simultaneous interception of two missile targets
China's state broadcaster reported that a Central Theater Command Air Force unit simultaneously intercepted two new missile targets during a weapons-verification exercise disclosed on November 2. Footage showed the Shenwei Missile Battalion responding to threats from multiple directions, including one target that changed course near the defended area. Global Times identified the air-defence system as HQ-9B, although CCTV did not name either the interceptor or the target types. The reported engagement demonstrated a demanding multi-target test, but does not establish independently verified performance against hypersonic weapons or disclose engagement ranges.
