Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year in the year of Jiachen, so I would like to greet you here first! I wish you all a blessed and prosperous Year of the Dragon! I Ching Qiangua Cloud: On the ninth day of the first month, don't use the hidden dragon; Ninety-five, the flying dragon is in the sky! From these descriptions, it seems that some existing strategic weapons can be immediately replenished by the natural brain, that is, the submarine-launched intercontinental strike system! After all, strategic nuclear submarines carry more than a dozen to 20 submarine-launched intercontinental missiles, and at the beginning they are all quietly lurking hundreds of meters deep in the ocean, which just fits the description of the hidden dragon; And once it gets the launch order, it immediately jumps out of the water, quickly climbs out of the atmosphere, and then flies to a hostile strategic target thousands of miles away. Could it be that the Chinese sages really saw the launch of submarine-launched intercontinental missiles thousands of years ago, as the legend says? Isn't today's human civilization the first generation of advanced forms? Otherwise, how could there be such an accurate description! Of course, this is not to delve into what is too mystical and mysterious, but to talk about the past and the present
In fact, there are still very obvious shortcomings in the intercontinental submarine-launched strike system; That is to say, it can only be used in elementary actual combat, and there is still a big gap between it and the free kingdom that can do whatever you want. This is manifested in the fact that the active intercontinental submarine launch systems of all major countries are, first of all, generally insufficient in range. For example, in the Cold War era, there were land-based silo-launched heavy intercontinental missiles such as SS18, which could launch warheads up to 150,000 kilometers away, more than ninety percent of the world's strategic goals can be directly covered. Today, with the popularity of NEPE high-energy propellants, the strongest solid-state land-based ICBMs can also achieve 14 to 160,000 km range. However, the actual combat range of traditional submarine-launched intercontinental missiles is basically between 6,000 km and 9,000 km, and only a very few models can reach the limit of 10,000 km after reducing the weight and quantity of warheads and decoys. The maximum range of submarine-launched ICBMs is generally insufficient, which means that they must be close to the outer waters of the adversary's continent before they can enter the submarine-launched position. And anytime,
The closer you are to your opponent, the higher the probability of being spotted and counterattacked. Second, all submarine-launched ICBMs are targeted several years or even more than a decade in advance, just before they are loaded into submarines. Completely unchangeable in the middle of the process. However, once the target to be attacked needs to be adjusted, or the nature of the target itself has undergone a major change, the ICBS cannot make immediate adjustments to this, which greatly reduces the flexibility of strategic nuclear strikes. It is precisely because the target to be attacked is almost immutable, that although strategic nuclear submarines can maneuver around the global ocean at will, the sea area suitable for launching fortresses is actually very limited, and it is basically a sea area that is not very wide in an arc thousands of kilometers away from the strategic target area. If the adversary itself has an evenly matched or even more powerful surface fleet in the far seas, then it is completely possible to carry out high-frequency and high-intensity strategic anti-submarine warfare in the above-limited arc-shaped launch sea area, and the reliability of the existing intercontinental submarine-launched systems of the major powers will be further reduced.
The biggest shortcoming is still at the end. That is, the traditional intercontinental submarine launch system, whose launch depth is basically between 20 and 50 meters below the surface of the water; Moreover, before launching, the buoy antenna should be released for final confirmation communication. It is important to know that the water transparency of the deep ocean is generally extremely high, such as the Sargasso Sea area, which can be seen through at a glance even 60 meters of water. When a strategic nuclear submarine of more than 10,000 tons is launched, it must float to within 50 meters of the water surface, and the buoy antenna must be raised synchronously. It can be seen that the current intercontinental submarine-launched system is basically self-deceptive in the face of high-intensity anti-submarine warfare. However, these general failures are likely to be completely ended in just a few years, that is, the new submarine-launched intercontinental strike system of a certain major country is about to complete all the construction works and enter the actual test. First of all, for the first time in the world, the maximum pressure-resistant shell diameter of 13 meters has been broken. On the premise of using unprecedented super steel,
Although the tonnage and diameter are larger, they can be lurked deeper. What's more, the diameter of its barrel has also exceeded 2 for the first time4-meter class, so it can carry a coarser and longer new-generation solid-state missile. The transport capacity is unprecedentedly powerful, and it can carry more than 20 warheads and speed decoys at the same time, so as to achieve a floating flight180,000 km! No existing anti-missile system can intercept it, and even the basic trajectory cannot be calculated in advance; It is possible to automatically adjust the target to be hit halfway through. The biggest upgrade is actually that the shell of the projectile body is composed of multiple layers of pressure-resistant composite materials, which can withstand water pressure at a depth of hundreds of meters without being deflated, so that it can be launched at any depth of the submarine itself, and there is no need to float to a depth of 50 meters to make an eye bag. Moreover, the multi-layer pressure resistant body itself is a lightweight material, and the total weight of the missile is still slightly lighter than water, ensuring an optimal underwater trajectory. Once such a system "has regrets", it will be the dragon chant that shocks the world!
