Is China's Xian H-20 bomber so powerful as it should be?

 

Is China's Xian H-20 bomber so powerful as it should be?

If the point of view to estimate the abilities of that bomber, it might base the same technology that is in use of B-2 Spirit. Is the technology, what is in use in those bombers hacked? Are there radars or other systems that can track the target by using some kind of anti-stealth methodology? Stealth aircraft are the most lethal military machines in the world, but the fact is that those systems are the entirety.

The stealth bombers can operate with free-fall bombs but the most used weapons are smart, precision-guided stand-off weapons like JDAM-type weapons, and also stealth cruise missiles, which are giving the stealth bombers very high accuracy and ability to destroy the different type of targets. Those weapons might have conventional or nuclear warheads. The old-fashion salvo bombing causes that the aircraft is easier to locate, and then the missiles would aim to that point. The modern anti-aircraft missiles have an image-homing system, which would find the target by using the camera image.

This thing means that stealth bombers must not go near the target itself and it can give minimum radar echo by falling small-size bombs and other weapons. In this case, the size of the bomb is small, if we compare it with the size of the stealth bomber itself. But those weapons require stealth technology and the other thing is that the thing, that makes those weapons effective is the high accuracy. If those weapons have low accuracy, the use of nuclear warheads will be attractive. The low accuracy means that the use of nuclear weapons will be lower because the conventional strike capacity is not enough in those cases, where the navigation and positioning satellites signal is cut by using some kind of electronic countermeasures.

Precision-guided weapons require navigation satellites or some other methods to point the target. And the question is does China this kind of technology, and how accurate those targeting satellites are? China's new hypersonic missiles are extremely lethal if they can reach the target. China can attack against fixed targets by using pre-targeted satellite-guided bombs and missiles. The coordinates of the target can set to the inertial navigation system of those aircraft if the pointing signal would cut, and that thing means that the accuracy of those bombs would be not so high, that they can harm hardened targets by using conventional warheads.

But the fact is that the H-20 is a lethal machine. Even if technology, what is used in it would be old-fashion. The stealth capacity of that bomber gives it a more powerful strike capacity than the H-6 bombers, which are copies of the 1950s Soviet Tu-16 "Bagler" bombers, which are basing old-fashion technology. The H-20 is a big advantage for the People's Liberation Army. And that would increase its strike capacity, but the question is how big this threat is?

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 ...
