Re: Effectiveness of China's Air Defence?
I really can't understand why is it impossible to hit slow moving object. Let do the math will you. It take the missile only 12 minute to travel 1500 mile. Hught durnin did some simulation and come with up 30 minute from the time the ship is detected,relay the finding, Missile launch preparation, missile laucnh . Now at 30 knot how far can the ship move be liberal with allowance say 60 mile. But the garden variety cruise missile can detect ship at 300 mile range with midcourse guidance or totaly autonomous. The chinese have studied this to death.Yup you can even download it. Here is the link
True It first have survive high G launch, Intense heat on reentry etc but it is not something beyond Chinese capability. They have send man mission to space at least 3 time The reach of the latest CY 602 is more like 400 mile
Another source draws the conclusion—using a different simulation—that
the warhead could have a kill radius of one hundred kilometers once terminal
guidance was engaged.36 In a discussion in Naval and Merchant Ships, Dong Lu
calculates the maximum distance at which the basic radar terminal guidance of
a similar missile system, the retired U.S. Pershing II, could detect a carrier that
had maneuvered for fi fteen minutes, given a scanning height for the missile’s
radar of nineteen kilometers.37 Terminal guidance of an ASBM would appear
to be a feasible adaptation of missile systems with which China has had success
(surface-to-air and air-to-air missiles, and antiship cruise missiles).38 Still,
a number of unique technical obstacles remain, such as the materials needed to
protect sophisticated guidance systems during reentry;39 the ability to function
in an environment of higher speed and more severe temperature dynamics than
