It has been reported that the United States shot down a Chinese spy balloon that was allegedly flying over the United States with its AIM-9X Sidewinder missile.
It is noteworthy that America will use this missile no matter what kind of threat comes from the air.
This missile, worth 4 lakh 40 thousand dollars, is capable of searching for and destroying heat waves. Although the missile is manufactured for US forces, it is mostly sold to its allies in large numbers.
Currently, it is believed that the United States has about 100,000 missiles of this type.
