China Deep Sea Radar: China’s intelligence network has achieved a major technological breakthrough. Chinese scientists have developed the world’s first ‘deep sea radar’ that can detect high-flying aircraft. Now this could pose a threat to America’s U-2 spy plane. America uses this aircraft to spy on China and Russia. The aircraft flies very high in the sky, making it difficult to detect with conventional radar. Now with the help of this radar, China can reshape the future of maritime warfare. Thus China has developed a hunter-gatherer weapon capable of striking from the depths of the sea to the sky.
According to scientists involved in the project, an acoustic sensor array radar deployed at a depth of 1,000 meters (3,280 ft) on the ocean floor, at a secret location, successfully detected and tracked a fixed-wing aircraft flying at an altitude of 5,000 meters. Did. This unprecedented deep sea radar has the potential to transform Chinese submarines from prey to hunter in the game of anti-submarine warfare.
If an aircraft is equipped with sophisticated sensors, it can detect torpedo submarines without their knowledge. But if submarines can get warning from undersea radar and the approximate location of an aircraft overhead, they can launch a missile from underwater to destroy it.
Till now no other country had this advanced identification technology. Most of the sound waves generated by aircraft are reflected from the ocean surface back into the sky, and only a small fraction penetrates the water. These sound waves are amplified as they travel through seawater layers of varying temperature, density, and salinity, as well as through ocean currents and currents.
After decades of research and development, China and some other maritime powers have succeeded in detecting low-flying targets using sea-based systems. But detecting high altitude targets in deep water was considered a major challenge. A research team led by Zhang Bo and Peng Zhaohui of the Institute of Acoustics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences proposed a unique method.
He theorized that a portion of the sound waves emitted by aircraft would reflect and bounce back to the ocean surface after hitting the ocean floor, allowing these waves to travel long distances. Researchers believe that by capturing and exploiting these weak signals, they can significantly increase detection sensitivity, which will greatly increase the intelligence gathering power of the Chinese military.
