Russian navy will get nuclear-capable hypersonic cruise missiles.

 


Russian navy will get nuclear-capable hypersonic cruise missiles. 


Putin says that the Russian navy will get hypersonic, nuclear-armed cruise missiles, and that means there is nothing new under the sun. Why Russians would research those weapons for years if they would not want to take them in production and place them in their warships? Hypersonic cruise missiles (HCM) will give the extremely high combat capacity for the navies, what operates them. And Russia is not only a nation, what develops that kind of weapons. 


In the countries, that are developing those weapons navy seems to be the prime operator for those systems, which are the scramjet-propellant extreme fast missiles. Those missiles are flying in the atmosphere lower level than ballistic missiles and their trajectory is gentler, which makes them extremely hard for defense. And the thing is that hypersonic cruise missiles would give powerful strike capacity for every warship in the Russian navy or every other navy what operates them. 


So why the navy is the prime operator for those missiles? The answer is that the scramjet-engine would have the best effect if it uses liquid hydrogen. Storing that very cold fuel is difficult, and the hydrogen hydration system is easy to install in the warships. The system can separate the hydrogen from water, and then the cooler would turn it to liquid form. 


The system is really easy to install, and it can create the liquid hydrogen to the tank, where it can pump to missiles. That system would make the missiles safe and fast to use. When the battle begins the fuel tank of the missiles would be filled, and if they are not used, the hydrogen can be removed and release to the air. 


The cooling system can also be used to low the temperature of the core of warship and submarines, which makes those vessels hard to detect by using infrared. And the low-temperature structures are protecting the ship against electromagnetic weapons. The impact energy of the hypersonic cruise missile will be extremely high. The speed of the ammunition of GAU-8 "Avenger" cannon is Mach 1,5. The speed of the HCM is about Mach 6-12 and the weight is much higher. 


When we are thinking about the HCM is that system can have the microwave generator, what mission is to destroy the electronic systems of the target. If the nuclear weapon of that missile would be planned to detonate by the impact the detonation is sure. If the impact energy will detonate the plutonium and the only thing that can cause a problem is the rising temperature of the nose, which can detonate the warhead before the target.


In this case, the missiles would be acting as the giant uranium bullet, but the detonation is more powerful. But otherwise adjusting the nuclear warhead for those missiles is difficult. The thing is that the HCM can act also as the kinetic energy missile, which can destroy every ship on the sea by using impact energy.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som...

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t...

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between  USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull.  The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting ...
