Aegis system in China? I guess clinton sold that stuff too. The Aegis is the worlds most powerful anti-fighter and anti-missile system and the backbone of protecting aircraft carriers.

It's AEGIS-like. They are using phased array radars and significant combat information to guide multiple vertically launched interceptor missiles (AAM). Probably not nearly as sophisticated as AEGIS by any stretch...but a HUGE step forward for them and a threat in any case.

The radar system on China's Type-051C & Type 052B class vessels were supposedly built with Ukranian help.One should remember that the Soviets were also working on phased array radars
