China enhances range of its killer missile, can now hit American and Japanese military bases in…, its name is…
Its guidance system has inertial navigation.
New Delhi: On 17 november 2024, while India tested its first hypersonic missile, China also increased the sort of its supersonic cruise missile DF-a hundred i.e. Dongfeng-a hundred. Dongfeng-a hundred is a supersonic missile, but when China wants, it might per chance make it a “hypersonic land attack cruise missile” (HLACM).
HLACM means a missile with best speed of 6100 km/hr with a four thousand km strike range. Its accuracy is what makes it the deadliest. Its accuracy is 1 meter. That is, most efficient one meter shall be here and there from the target. China uses H-6K bomber for its launch.
Earlier, the sort of this Chinese missile became 2 to three thousand kms which has now been increased to four thousand km. 10×10 transporter erector launchers are used to launch it. On the other hand it be launched from a bomber. Now this missile can fly at a speed of 4700 km / hr and go up to four thousand km.
Equipped with the foremost fresh guidance system
This missile goes up to a height of 30 kilometers after launch, after which it turns towards the target. The height of its flight has been kept such that it has to withstand atmospheric pressure and never to be detected by any radar. Its guidance system has inertial navigation. It has features like terrain matching, scene matching, and satellite positioning. That is, there is not any chance for this missile to omit its target.
Accuracy and weaponry make it special
This 9-metre-long missile can carry a warhead of zero.7 to 1-meter diameter and five hundred kg weight. This missile has a ramjet engine, which supplies it a speed of 6100 kilometers per hour. As soon as the missile’s weapon comes inside of the waft phase, it might per chance change direction and trajectory even at high speed. Attributable to this, air defense systems are unable to intercept it. It would attack moving targets.
US-Japan defense force bases heading within a few of the most effective direction
Earlier its range became most efficient limited to places like Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and Philippines. But after increasing the variety, it might per chance now attack the US defense force base in Guam. That is, other defense force bases of The the USA and Japan are also threatened by this missile. This missile may attack any ship whether or not it is able to be miles anchored or sailing. These features make this missile a potent weapon inside of the Western Pacific Ocean.
