The Chinese strategic bomber H-6N showed up, probably with a hypersonic missile, says The Aviationist.
According to a US publication, the weapon on display could be an Air Launched Ballistic Missile (ALBM) air-launched ballistic missile or a DF-ZF gliding unit. The Aviationist writes that in the latter case, the weapon has a range of 1800-2500 kilometers and a speed of five Mach numbers. The publication claims that the DF-ZF may be “China's response” to the American AGM-183A Air-Launched Rapid Response Weapon (ARRW) hypersonic missile.
Defense News writes that in the images spread in social networks, the H-6N may appear with the CH-AS-X-13 aeroballistic missile, which is the Chinese analogue of the Russian Dagger.
In October, The Drive wrote that the AGM-183A ARRW will travel 1,000 miles (over 1,600 kilometers) in 10-12 minutes. The first such weapons will be received by the B-52H Stratofortress strategic bombers (each aircraft will be able to carry four such missiles).
In April 2018, a US government source told The Diplomat that the PRC's Rocket Forces conducted five flight tests of the CH-AS-X-13 aeroballistic missile in secrecy.
