When China developed its unique military modernization system, a series of cutting-edge defense weapons made many world powers admire it, including China's anti-ship missile . In the early years, when China developed the ballistic missile technology, it clarified the policy of land-controlling the sea, highlighting the advantages of its own ballistic missile technology to curb the enemy's maritime power. This has allowed China's unremitting efforts to complete this leap transformation from learning from the Soviet Union to independent research and development. The missile technology has become more mature, allowing China to invest in the accumulation of anti-ship missile technology and begin to take an important step in controlling the sea with land.
Later, after anti-ship missile technology was on the right track, the number of anti-ship missile family in the Dongfeng series of missiles increased, including the current Dongfeng-26B missile, the current Zhenguo weapon. It was its emergence that made the US aircraft carrier formation suspected for a time. So what kind of strength does Dongfeng-26B have? Why does it make the opponent feel doubted about his own military development direction?
. The advancement of anti-ship missiles has made the existence of aircraft carrier full of controversy
In the early years, the United States proved the necessity of aircraft carriers through multiple battles on surface ships. However, with the advancement of missile technology, especially the technological breakthrough of anti-ship missiles, this made the aircraft carrier a mobile target at sea in front of anti-ship missiles. Therefore, the United States has also argued endlessly about whether to continue to develop aircraft carrier formations. What made the US authorities doubt the necessity of the aircraft carrier formation was that the emergence of China's Dongfeng-26B made the US aircraft carrier formation lose its glory and once fell into a strategic threat. For China, the goal of the Dongfeng-26B is to enhance China's sea control. Although this missile is only launched on land-based means, it is enough to cover China's offshore, which makes the former advantages of the US aircraft carrier formation no longer exist, which also triggers US politicians' doubts about whether the United States still needs to continue to develop aircraft carrier technology.
Dongfeng-26B anti-ship missile that made the US authorities fear actually has the saying of aircraft carrier killer in . According to the disclosure of well-known American media, the biggest advantage of the Dongfeng-26B missile is that it can be launched on the highway and has a very fast launch speed. Its maximum range exceeds 4,000 kilometers, which is enough to cover all China's territorial waters and can even threaten the U.S. Guam military base . It can be seen that the Dongfeng-26B is still very strong in deterrence.
In addition to having a long range, Dongfeng-26B has also made major breakthroughs in guidance technology, which not only achieved diversified guidance, but also achieved range change of warheads. Therefore, even if the United States is equipped with the Aegis system, it is still very difficult to intercept anti-ship missiles such as Dongfeng-26B, which also makes Dongfeng-26B worthy of its reputation as an aircraft carrier killer.
2. High-precision strikes have left the US aircraft carrier formation nowhere to escape
Facing opponents like Dongfeng-26B anti-ship missiles, the United States has also begun to take many countermeasures, which is the development of warship stealth technology.
Experience gained in actual combat through stealth fighters and bomber , the development of warship stealth technology seems to be a trend in the future development of warships. So shortly after the United States proposed to develop warship stealth technology, China has made many breakthroughs in the field of containment of stealth technology. It is these breakthroughs that have left the US aircraft carrier fleet with stealth technology in the future, even if it has stealth technology in the future, it is still nowhere to escape.
In order to deal with stealth, this modern military assault method, China has opened up a technological path of anti-stealing. Through space-based reconnaissance satellites, high-altitude unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and high-altitude early warning aircraft form a three-in-one reconnaissance system in a trinity-wide naval warfare, which makes the stealth ability of the US aircraft carrier formation particularly insufficient in this trinity-in-one reconnaissance system. After all, the current stealth that can be achieved in the military can only be deceived by deceiving the opponent's radar system to achieve the purpose of stealth on radar .
However, China's trinity reconnaissance system can not only detect radar display targets, but also detect targets on the spot. Therefore, it is even more difficult for the US aircraft carrier fleet to re-enter China's territorial waters with the help of stealth.
With its excellent reconnaissance system, after the Dongfeng-26B truly entered combat state, its missile ranged from locking the target to launch in less than 20 minutes, which allowed the Dongfeng-26B missile to run towards the target at a speed of Mach 15 after it was quickly launched. With such a short speed, the US aircraft carrier formation can be said to have no preparation time to intercept missiles, which makes changing the position of the aircraft carrier the best way to avoid.
So in order to deal with the possible way of avoiding US aircraft carriers, the Dongfeng-26B missile also uses a white coating, and its core is a high-precision guided radar, which allows Dongfeng-26B to accurately capture the target's reflected waves, thereby achieving accurate strikes on the target. It can be said that this accuracy is less than 10 meters, which is a manifestation of nowhere to escape in the eyes of the US aircraft carrier formation.
It can be said that once it is hit by Dongfeng-26B, it means that the United States will sit and watch the aircraft carrier be sunk. Therefore, we have to lament that China's rapid development in the military field has given China a solid national defense as a protection.
Thanks to China's decades of military modernization development, this makes the Dongfeng-26B anti-ship missile a sharp blade to deter US aircraft carriers. It not only has high-precision multi-guiding technology, but also can use supersonic to penetrate the US aircraft carrier formation with high accuracy, making Dongfeng-26B truly a powerful weapon to defend China's territorial waters.
