The Chinese missile warning system is a national strategic defence asset being developed[1] by China with assistance from Russia.
On 3 October 2019, President Vladimir Putin said Russia is assisting China in developing the missile warning system.
“This is a very serious thing that will dramatically increase China’s defense capability, because only the US and Russia have such a system now.”[3] On 4 October 2019, Sergei Boyev, director general of Vympel NPO, a major weapons manufacturer in Russia, confirmed to Russia's state-run media that the company was working on "modelling" the system for China.
This will provide China with an increased detection range from the North pole as well as the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean.
