A new move came from the Beijing administration to anger the United States. It is reported that China has developed the world’s most powerful radar system that can change the balance of power in the seas. Here are the details of the news…
According to the news of the South China Morning Post, the features of the radar system under construction were included in the “Electrical Machines and Control” magazine published in Chinese.
Researchers led by Sun Donyang from China’s Harbin University of Science and Technology stated that the ship’s radar system is capable of detecting a guided missile fired from 4,500 kilometers away and tracking multiple targets at a range of 3,500 kilometers.
AVAILABLE IN RANGE AUSTRALIA AND THE USA
Noting that the radar system provides long-range detection and tracking capability from the mainland of China to the north of Australia and the USA’s Guam base in the Pacific, the researchers emphasized that this could provide a great advantage to the Chinese Navy.
IT WILL BE INSTALLED ON NEW GENERATION WARSHIPS
The researchers noted that the first example of the system, which is prepared to be installed on next-generation warships with electric motors, is already under construction.
With current technology, radars on most warships have a range of several hundred kilometers. It is stated that the reason for this is that high-capacity radars need a large amount of electrical power.
Chinese researchers claim that they have solved this problem with a new radar structure they call “active phased array”.
Stating that in the system consisting of tens of thousands of transceiver units, each unit can receive and transmit signals like an independent radar, the researchers pointed out that when these units work together, these units can create electromagnetic signal vibrations with a power of up to 30 megawatts, providing an effect beyond the electrical power that any ship can carry.
