Chinese fleet
One ship looks like an entire fleet. China continues to innovate in the war arsenal and brings cutting -edge technology to the Navy.
In Star Trek’s universe, ships like Defiant and Voyager use advanced technologies, from camouflage devices to others that draw attention to deceive enemies. Now China seems to have been inspired by this universe to build its new war ship.
Technology is based on Electronic Interference Devices Small and low cost to allow a single war ship to appear as an entire fleet on the enemy radar, explains the.
What happens in practice is that this ship It appears in the radars as a fleet of “ghosts”.
According to the investigators responsible for the project, these coordinated sets can Remodel the Electromagnetic Landscape of the Battlefielda capacity that describes it as “sculpting the electromagnetic environment”, the SCMP. The goal? Deceive the enemy.
Unsurprisingly, China has been threatening for some time invading Taiwan, and its naval technology puts it in the military avant-garde.
According to the SCMP, a test has even been done: an anti-navy missile targets a fleet of eight war ships of the popular liberation army that appear on your radar… only it is actually just one.
But there is limitations. Its current results come from digital simulations and not real missile testing, IE explains. They also admit that the simplicity of the 1 bit system can make it vulnerable to countermeasures, especially network missile systems capable of crossing radar data.
As they continue to develop the platform, the next step will be the test on the ground and integration with existing naval systems – because China is well aware that the future is moving towards naval tactics that bet on technology.
