Hindustan Times China’s Anti-Stealth Radar Now Guards Khamenei, B-2 Spirit And Lightning II Rendered Helpless Now?

Reports suggest Iran has acquired China’s advanced YLC-8B UHF-band anti-stealth radar system, potentially enhancing Tehran’s ability to detect low-observable aircraft such as the B-2 Spirit, F-35 Lightning II, and F-22 Raptor. Designed to operate in the UHF frequency band, the YLC-8B is optimized to identify stealth platforms that are primarily engineered to evade conventional X-band targeting radars. With reported detection ranges of up to 700 kilometers, the system could significantly expand Iran’s early-warning architecture and extend reaction timelines in the event of aerial operations. Analysts note that while early detection does not guarantee interception, integration of long-range radar systems into layered defenses — including systems like the S-300PMU-2 — may complicate U.S. and Israeli operational planning.
