What is the meaning of the PLA's fifth official official in the middle of the land base?

Written article | Li Yanyan

According to the Ministry of National Defense, on the evening of June 19, 2022, China conducted a technical test in the territorial interception interception technical test in the territory, and the test achieved the expected purpose. This test is defensive and does not target any country.

What is the meaning of the mid -range anti -missile? Zhengzhi (WeChat ID: UPOLITICS) Song Zhongping, a military commentator, interpreted.

What is the interception of the medium -segment of the land base?

Zheng knows that the remote precision precision strike weapons of various countries -missiles are divided into two categories: cruise missiles and ballistic missiles.

The cruise missiles passed within the atmosphere, the speed was low, the range was shorter but the accuracy was high. The ballistic missiles first pushed the missile outside the atmosphere (similar to satellites), accelerated in the vacuum environment of space, and then operated to the target at a high speed and then entered the atmosphere to strike the target. Such missiles have fast flight speed, long range, and large loads.

The anti -missile interception of the land base is mainly targeted at the latter -class missile, namely ballistic missile.

For details, the flight of ballistic missiles is generally divided into three stages-

Rising section: When the missile was launched from the transmitted rack to the fly out of the atmosphere, this stage is called the ascending section;

Middle section: missile flight flying out of the atmosphere, flying outside the atmosphere to the target, this stage is the middle section of the flight;

At the end: After returning to the atmosphere, the missile reaches the target area and then hit the target. This stage is called the return of the atmosphere, or the last stage.

The "mid -range anti -missile" technology mainly refers to interception of missiles outside the mid -range of the atmosphere and the mid -flight of ballistic missiles. It is the most challenging part of the missile defense technology. The so -called "land -based" refers to the launch of the interception bomb based on land facilities.

China and the United States adopt the same technical route: kinetic impact

Song Zhongping knew that the interpretation of the government said that the mid -range anti -missile test was the key to the construction of anti -commissioned capabilities.

He pointed out that during the flight, ballistic missiles had the longest flight time in the middle, accounting for two -thirds. For interception, the interception window is mainly existing in the middle. "The rising section of flight time is short and away from the intercepting side, and it is difficult to implement anti -missile. The missiles flying at the last stage are fast, and the interception difficulty is also difficult. At this time, the missiles are already over the target. Harm. Therefore, the world's major military powers attach more importance to the construction of mid -range anti -commissioning capabilities.

He also analyzed that China's mid -range anti -commissioned interception adopted the same technical route as the United States, that is, kinetic collision (KKV). It means that the interceptor directly hit the missile in the middle. "This technical idea has the best interception effect, but it is also the most difficult. It requires strong detection, prediction, tracking ability, and the quality of interception itself is also very high."

He told Zheng that although Russia's anti -missile weapons also have the ability to intercept in the middle, it is not KKV's technical ideas, because in the middle section of interception technology, China and the United States are leading positions.

National Defense Shield

Song Zhongping knows that the ballistic missiles are expensive, and the goal of its blow must be a high -value target. In addition, intercontinental ballistic missiles are equipped with nuclear warheads. Therefore, interception of such large killers is self -evident to the importance of protecting national security and people's property security.

Military expert Shao Yongling said in an interview with CCTV that my country's nuclear strike power is limited and pursue policies that do not first use nuclear weapons. In this way, we must moderately develop defense forces to ensure the survivability of our nuclear power.

"In fact, the interception capacity of the interception is actually weaving a national defense shield. Similarly, the United States has already developed related technologies and served in service, forming its national missile defense system (NMD)." Song Zhongping analyzed that it is often seen that the newspapers are often reported. The US military's "Patriot" and "Sade" anti -missile system often confuses the interception system with the middle section. In fact, the "Patriot" and "Sad" system belongs to the last interception system, which means that after the interception failure in the middle section, the aforementioned two systems are intercepted. In addition, "Sad" and "Patriot" are also different from the types of missiles and "NMD" systems due to high shooting and firing speed.

△ Patriot System

Song Zhongping analyzed that the US NMD system has been deployed and served for many years. Under this large system, it is divided into land -based anti -missile systems and sea -based anti -missile systems, that is, the United States has the ability to intercept the mid -stage interception from land and maritime missiles. "This is also the idea that my country can refer to improvement, that is, expanding the mid -range anti -missile capabilities to the platforms such as warships.

There is deep meaning behind

According to political knowledge, this time it was the sixth public announcement of land -based anti -missile technical tests in China, and the fifth public announcement was announced to conduct land -based mid -range anti -missile tests.

The previous several occurred on January 11, 2010, January 27, 2013, and July 23, 2014 (the "middle section" was not clear), February 5, 2018, and February 4, 2021.

Song Zhongping said: "After so many years of development, I personally judge that China's land -based mid -segment anti -missile technology has matured, and related weapon systems have been installed. The continuous tests are not technical exploration, but the target after service.Tests to verify and improve this. "His analysis believes that the sixth official announcement related experiments reflect China's military transparency, so as not to suspicion and even want to render the" Chinese threat theory "."China's official announcement in the middle of the anti -missile test and prove to the world with strength that my country has reliable defense means." Song Zhongping said.
