According to Russian military Equality Network October 17 reported that China’s October 1 this year, at the military parade for the first time demonstrated its newly developed long sword-10A-type long-range cruise missiles. Although so far the Chinese side did not disclose information about the types of weapons of specific technical indicators, but had received the news can be sure that the Chinese sword-10A in the development process has received from the Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan technical assistance.In order to build a strategy for high-precision positioning system to improve the Second Artillery Corps accuracy of ballistic missiles and cruise missiles against the Chinese military from the late 90s last century, has launched a number of satellites equipped with optical equipment, and synthetic aperture radar satellite . At present, China developed the satellite equipped with synthetic aperture radar include “remote-sensing -1″ was, “Remote sensing -3″ number and “remote sensing -5″ number, while the satellite is equipped with photoelectric detection system is a “remote-sensing -2″ ID , “Remote sensing -4″ number and “remote sensing -6″号. These satellites by China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation under the Research Institute of the fifth and sixth, while the assembly and system integration by the Shanghai Academy of Space Technology is responsible for.
At present, China’s Second Artillery Corps has also launched the confidentiality of communications capabilities with data communications satellites, for guided land-based and space-based type of sword-10A-type cruise missiles. Air-launched long sword-10A (H-6K launch platform for the medium-range bomber) in the development and testing work is located in Hubei Province by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation Research Institute presided over the ninth.
-10 Sword navigation system manufactured by a factory in Shanghai, however, this important work in its construction process received technical assistance to Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan. Sword -10 on August 10, 2004 conducted its first firing test. The new high-precision weapons of the weight of 1090 kilograms, length 6.3 meters (compared with X-55 length 0.26 meters), playing the diameter of 0.514 meters.
Military experts believe that Ukraine is a sword of -10 In fact, X-55 cruise missile developed based on. However, X-55 engine was not equipped with a fixed dead, and its missile launches a missile issued after the move, while China’s sword -10 and the U.S. “Tomahawk” is at a higher level of technology developed on They fixed the engine are fixed, so the radar reflection signal to be lower.
As with the sword at the same time -10 parade debut in Beijing, the Dongfeng-21C self-propelled medium-range ballistic missiles, which began in 2007, the troops, the warhead maximum mass of 2000 kg, with a range of up to 1700 km. According to data published by the United States, the missile will not only capable of carrying conventional warheads, but also equipped with electro-magnetic pulse warheads, to include the aircraft carrier battle groups on the ground and sea targets, including the implementation of a precision strike.
