You can extract signals lower than background routinely. See GPS.

Did you bother to read the 2nd article?

2 SSBNs collided with each other. Even afterwards, they both still didn't realise they actually hit another submarine

Your reference to GPS signal discrimination makes no sense, given what actually happened.

--

Also remember that GPS radio signals are deliberately designed to be detected as regular signals.

In comparison, submarine emissions are designed to be random as much as possible. Plus sound waves represent physical movement, which contains far less data to work with.



Have you heard of clouds?

This is what I mean.

Take that SCMP article to its logical conclusion.

300 satellites gives you a 10 minute revisit time.
Say you have another 300 SAR satellites working together.

That's only 600 satellites and will provide near-real time tracking.
And at 41 satellites per launch, that's less that 15 launch rockets.

---

In the coming years, we're going to be looking at 50K+ satellites in low earth orbit.

Real-time satellite reconnaissance constellations are going to be common.
I imagine every medium sized country will have one.

And again, if ICBMs on TELs were a better option, then why didn't China build many, many more DF-41?

For a long while, I was puzzled at the slow adoption rate of the DF-41.
But it makes sense if they decided that missile silos are a better option that more TELs.

And they've really gone with large numbers of silos.

This is rules based world order.
So uh, I'm gonna be blunt here. What will realistically happen in consequence? Is China going to sanction Israel? Enforce a two state solution? Military intervention to stop genocide?

I think we all know the answers to these rhetorical questions. However, sometimes I wish that the CPC had the stones to actually do something abroad. Instead, we will sit here and watch as another peoples suffer the same things our ancestors suffered at the hands of the IJA. If the only thing we do is pay lip service to condemn blatant crimes against humanity, then I don't think China is ready to be a leader in "mutually prosperous world" nor will other nations see China as a leader.

It's not China's problem. China doesn't want to be the Global Hegemon.

It's not out of desire to be hegemon, it's the decent thing, the humanitarian thing to do. Why should we tolerate a genocide happening in front of our eyes? Are Palestinians not people, not human beings? Inaction here goes beyond risk aversion, it's cowardice.

Who's gonna pay for the blood and resources? Resources that are sorely needed for the upcoming Sino-Americana war.

If spilling blood and burning treasure is too extreme for our liking then why not sanction Israel? Anything is better than doing nothing. The problem is, nothing besides empty words and platitudes is being done.
How do you know China is doing nothing. Just cause China doesn't publicize all the aid it gives unlike Uncle Sam doesn't mean it didn't give any. Likewise China also didn't publicize sanctions, but it doesn't mean China's policies and enforcement towards Israel didn't change. Regardless China has no interest in becoming world's police, China just wants to make friends and do business with everyone.

Who's going to follow these sanctions? Just China? It's not going to impact Israel at all and give the west more reasons to hate China and hurt Chinese development. Frankly there is nothing China could do other than support in the UN and ICJ, US's position in the middle east is too strong with half of the Arab countries beside Israel being US allies.

Damn, little Ireland sure seems to be gunning for the position of World Police then.

What is there to hide? Why is China willing to publicly sanction the EU and the US but not Israel?
