According to a satellite aerial photo posted on Twitter by SCS_New, a surface-to-air missile position is being built in Ningming County, Guangxi, China. The photo clearly marks the appearance of a position with an advanced radar base and at least six launchers next to the runway of the military airport, while satellite data shows the base was built in June 2019.
Vietnamese Foreign Ministry spokesman Le Thi Thu Hang said in the face of outside inquiries that it would be prepared to investigate whether the surface-to-air missile base in mainland Guangxi, which is just 20 kilometers from the Sino-Vietnamese border, has been completed, “and we will verify the information.” In addition, local Vietnamese news also pointed out that a heliport is also being built in China, about 60 kilometers from the Sino-Vietnamese border.
It is understood that although China and Vietnam maintain good diplomatic relations, they still have secret rivalries and occasional friction over the South China Sea, and military developments have led to media speculation on both sides. Sources pointed out that Vietnam is considering the purchase of “BrahMos” supersonic cruise missile (BrahMos) from India, “the agreement involves only Vietnam and India, once the Indian government issued a release signal, the deal can be finalized.”
The company’s main business is to promote the development of the company’s products and services.

“The company’s main goal is to provide a platform for the development of a new generation of products and services. Because the BrahMos missile has the ability to carry nuclear warheads, it has become the core of India’s nuclear trinity air-based warfare, and is currently developing a hypersonic BrahMos II and a smaller version of the Su-30 to carry the missile.
