Near-air warfare, as a new type of warfare, is rapidly developing and has become an important field that determines the success or failure of modern warfare. According to an article by researchers at the National University of Defense Technology of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) disclosed by the Hong Kong media "South China Morning Post", in order to meet the needs of near-air operations, the PLA has established a near-air command and established a command specialtyHypersonic**The PLA provides important support for its combat capability. This shows that China has realized the importance of near-air combat and is going all out to develop hypersoundSpeed missilesThis absolute workhorse.
In the field of near-air combat, hypersonicSpeed missilesis indispensableSystem. Compared to the traditional oneBallistic missileswithCruise missiles, hypersonicSpeed missilesPossession penetration speed is no less thanBallistic missileswithCruise missiles, and at the same timeCruise missilesmaneuverability, flexibility and orbit change capability. This makes for hypersoundSpeed missilesInAtmosphereThere is no fixed trajectory when flying inside, which enhances its penetration ability. Air defenseAnti-missile systemIt is not possible to set the optimal interception point by calculating the flight trajectory, so that the hypersound is highSpeed missilesI possessed more than tacticsBallistic missileswithCruise missilesHigher penetration capability.
In recent years, the world has become hypersoundSpeed missilesMore and more attention is being paid to the research and development and application. In hypersoundSpeed missilesIn the field, China is the country with the fastest development, the most comprehensive model and the strongest momentum. China made its first public demonstration at a military parade in 2019Dongfeng-17, hypersonicSpeed missilesand in April and November 2022, the carrier-based version of the YJ-21 hypersonic anti-ship was demonstratedMissilesand the air-based version of the YJ-21 hypersoundSpeed missiles。Russia has also developed in this area, has"Zircon".with"Dagger".and a few other hypersoundsSpeed missiles, although not particularly technically mature, but Russian hypersound in relation to the United StatesSpeed missilesMore advantages.
However, the development of hypersoundSpeed missilesIt's not an easy task, and you need to have R&DMissilestechnical strength. At present, it seems that the real comprehensive and mature mastery of hypersoundSpeed missilesThe only countries with technology are China and Russia. And the United States is relatively lagging behind in this area. Although the United States was the first to unfoldHypersonic**R&D countries, but until 2019 ChinaDongfeng-17After the public debut,U.S. militaryhypersoundSpeed missilesCombat effectiveness has still not been formed. This suggests that China is in hypersoundSpeed missilesLeading position in the field.
To make a hypersoundSpeed missilesIt has strong actual combat capability, and it also needs to be supported by a complete combat system. The combat system includes elements such as target acquisition and continuous tracking and positioning. Traditional reconnaissance aircraft and other equipment can no longer meet the requirements for hypersoundSpeed missilesoperational needs, while the strategic level of high altitude long enduranceDrones, ScoutingSatellitessystem as well as the stratosphereAirshipand other equipment became the support of the hypersoundSpeed missilesCritical facilities for operations.
This is also China in the hypersoundSpeed missilesOne of the reasons why the field is ahead of other countries. In recent years, China has been inDronesSatellitesas well as largeAirshipThe field has made tremendous progress. Therefore, China is not only in the hypersoundSpeed missilesIt is technically advanced and comprehensive, and has the ability to support hypersoundSpeed missilesThe entire new combat system of operations.
In recent years, the United States has continued to send to Taiwan Province**armament, and try to arm Taiwan into a tricky "hedgehog". At the same time,U.S. militaryIt has also continued to conduct war games related to the Taiwan Strait, and it is clear that it has the intention of intervening in the Taiwan Strait by force.
In this case, the PLA will be hypersoundSpeed missilesThis type of new typeTargeted deployment of equipment is essential. The current combat system of the United States is very difficult to effectively interceptDongfeng-17, hypersonicSpeed missileswithDongfeng-26Anti-shipBallistic missilesand other new typesMissilesSystem. In the event of a possible conflict in the Taiwan Strait, there isU.S. militaryIntervention,U.S. militarywill face an unimaginable hypersonic strike by the PLA. At that time,U.S. militaryofAircraft carrier battle groupand located in the Western PacificMilitaryThe base will be subjected to a supersound that is powerless to resistSpeed missilesHit.
To sum up, near-air combat has become an important area that determines the success or failure of modern warfare, and hypersoundSpeed missilesIt is the absolute main force of near-air operations. China in the hypersoundSpeed missilesIt is ahead of the United States in all aspects of the field, with advanced and comprehensive hypersoundSpeed missilesThe entire new combat system with technology and support operations. The hypersound of the PLASpeed missilesThe force has been established and will be deployed along the southeast coast to deal with a possible conflict in the Taiwan Strait. U.S. militaryThe current combat system is not capable of effectively intercepting China's hypersoundSpeed missilesIn the event of a conflict, the PLA will be able to deal with itU.S. militaryAircraft carrier battle groupwithMilitaryThe base delivers a devastating blow. Hence the hypersoundSpeed missilesIt has become another killer feature for ChinaEquip.
