doesn't say what radar it is controlled by (patriot radar see below ?)

the sm6 is being used in the anti ship role ,i assume it will be used in anti air role as well
assume if it uses sm6 it probably could use the sm3 version

With the ever-growing threat of the PRC/CCP in that region. It is only prudent for the US to provide/deploy weapons systems of various types. To locations like the PI.

I remember decades ago, deploying ground based cruise missiles to Europe had the progressive college crowd freaking out. The program was terminated.
It seems the America Last crowd is distracted, not one peep over this. Ironic, as the current ground launched cruise missile is really just an evolved version of its late cold war ancestor.

"I remember decades ago, deploying ground based cruise missiles to Europe had the progressive college crowd freaking out. The program was terminated."

As I remember they and Pershing II were deployed in reaction to Russian SS-20 and other short ranged nuclear missiles being deployed in Eastern Europe and all were eventually removed as part of the Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces Treaty.

Sorry but a political stunt.
Any China aggression would be led by strikes on radar and such misleading sites. If they want to buy some American produced arms, fine.
