    China’s PL-15 missile has downed Rafale jets. Is the PL-16 even more powerful?

    China's PL-16 missile is reported to have a range exceeding 300km due to a variable-thrust rocket motor, based on an unverified online image. The U.S. AIM-260 missile, with a range of at least 193km, is described as a response to China's PL-15 missile, which recently downed Rafale jets.
