What's new

China Space Military:Recon, Satcom, Navi, ASAT/BMD, Orbital Vehicle, SLV, etc.

Oh I'm sorry to embarrass yourself that China can't even used its own imagination to make its own picture instead of plagiarism.

And yeah showing that 3 seconds of Top Gun instead of showing your own pilots flying tells how bad your guys are.
those pictures are by journalists, they have no idea what it's suppose to look like, since America released certain pictures to its media, our media would have to copy yours, cause ours didn't reveal what it looks like.

No way would we reveal our weapon at this stage.

Also isn't having the weapon more important than a picture of what it suppose to look like? I mean that's my thinking, you can't throw a picture at a nation can you?

Any info on this,i qouted the important parts?
'Impossible' space engine may actually work, NASA test suggests - Yahoo News
''In 2012, however, a team of Chinese researchers built their own version of the system and found that it does indeed work, generating enough thrust to potentially power a satellite''

''The NASA scientists determined that the Cannae Drive produces 30 to 50 micronewtons of thrust — less than 0.1 percent of that measured by the Chinese team, Wired UK noted, but nevertheless suggesting that the technology works.''

And yet our picture is based on what is real and can be thrown at.:-)

China to test recoverable moon orbiter
Xinhua, August 10, 2014

China is preparing for the launch of an experimental recoverable moon orbiter, said the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defence on Sunday.

The orbiter arrived in Xichang via air in southwest China's Sichuan Province on Sunday and then transported to the Xichang Satellite Launch Center, according to a statement from the administration.

The launch will take place before the end of this year, it said.

The plan is for the orbiter to be launched into lunar orbit and return to Earth at an escape velocity of 11.2 km per second.

The orbiter is one of the test models for China's new lunar probe Chang'e-5, which will be tasked with landing on the moon, collecting samples and returning to Earth.

The launch is aimed at testing the technologies that are vital for the success of Chang'e-5, the statement said.

China launched the Chang'e-3 lunar probe with its moon rover, Yutu, in late 2013. Chang'e-3 successfully landed on the moon and Yutu operated well until its control mechanism failed in January.

As the backup probe of Chang'e-3, Chang'e-4 will be adapted to verify technologies for Chang'e-5.

The more sophisticated Chang'e-5 mission, including unmanned sampling and returning, requires technological breakthroughs in moon surface takeoff, sampling encapsulation, rendezvous and docking in lunar orbit, as well as high-speed Earth reentry.

1st LD-Writethru: China launches HD Earth observation satellite
Xinhua, August 19, 2014

China successfully launched its most advanced earth observation satellite, the Gaofen-2, on Tuesday.

The Gaofen-2, the country's second high-definition satellite in orbit, was launched from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in north China's Shanxi Province at 11:15 a.m. Beijing Time.

It was boosted by a Long March-4B carrier rocket. A small satellite from Poland was also carried by the rocket, according to the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense(SASTIND).

It is China's most advanced high-definition Earth observation satellite, and is able to see a one-meter-long object from space in full color.

It will be used for geographic and resources surveillance, environment and climate change monitoring, precision agriculture, disaster relief and city planning.

The primary users of the satellite will be the Ministry of Land and Resources, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Transport, and the State Forestry Administration, according to the SASTIND.

The Gaofen-2 is the second of seven satellites to be launched for China's indigenous high-definition observation project Gaofen before 2020. The project was initiated in May 2010.

Gaofen-1, the first satellite of the project, was launched in April 2013.

Gaofen-1 provides service for more than ten Chinese government departments including the ministries of land and resources, environmental protection and agriculture. It has also assisted China's search for the missing Malaysian airliner MH370 and played an important role in city development in Beijing, Hebei Province and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, according to the SASTIND.

Ham radio goes around the Moon

Full Moon 2010 – Credit Gregory H Revera

Towards the end of the year radio amateurs will have the opportunity to receive what must be the ultimate DX from a ham radio payload transmitting the data mode JT65B as it flies around the Moon.

Beijing plans to send a lunar orbiter around the Moon carrying a 14 kg battery powered payload known as 4M-LXS which was developed at LuxSpace. The amateur radio payload will transmit a JT65B signal on 145.990 MHz which can be decoded by radio amateurs using the free WJST software.

The orbiter is one of the test models for Beijing’s new lunar probe Chang’e-5, which will be tasked with landing on the moon, collecting samples and returning to Earth. The launch, planned for 4th quarter 2014, is aimed at testing the technologies that are vital for the success of Chang’e-5. The orbiter will be launched into Lunar Transfer Orbit (LTO) then will perform a flyby around the Moon and re-enter the Earth’s atmosphere after 9 days.
The orbiter arrived by air in Xichang, Sichuan on Sunday, August 10 and was then transported to the Xichang Satellite Launch Center.

yeah, comparing indian most advanced military sats with old chinese commercial sats. lol
even that you don't look any better. show me one indian high resolution satellite that has coverage area more that 10 km? lol current chinese commercial satellites with 1~2 m resolution are around 50 km swath and in colors, not black and white. they could easily achieve less than 1m if they use longer narrow lens, instead of wider angle. for what purpose? let indians goo goo gaga :lol:

the DF-2 they plan to launch is also around 50 km. yeah, i see they are widening the gap :lol:



lrrl.jpg

Excellent points.

catosat-1 2.5m .. 27 km swath
catosat-2a/2b .. 0.8m..9.6km swath
future catosat-3 ... 0.3m? .. 6km swath


just a few civilian chinese satelites that i know of..

cbers-2b launched 6 years ago with brazil .... 2.7m resolution, 27km swath
zy-3 ... 2.1m resolution, 51 km ground swath
Gaofen .. 1~2m resolution at around 40 ~ 50 km swath width
df-2 to be launched later this year capable of 0.8m res at 48km swath


the indians are not making any improvement at all generation after generation, other than sacrificing area coverage for boasting. indian sats has to go around earth multiple times to take shots to get same coverage compare other non-indian spy satellites. this is unacceptable for military purpose :lol:

China returns to action with Yaogan Weixing-20 mission | NASASpaceFlight.com
August 9, 2014 by Rui C. Barbosa
Z21-350x139.jpg

Closing a four month gap since the previous orbital launch, China successfully launched the Yaogan Weixing-20 mission from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. Launch took place on Saturday at 05:45 UTC from the 603 launch pad of the LC43 launch complex using a Long March-4C (Chang Zheng-4C) launch vehicle.
Chinese Launch:

The Yaogan Weixing-20 mission is composed of three satellites, with Chinese media referring to the new satellite as “a new remote sensing bird that will be used for scientific experiments, land survey, crop yield assessment, and disaster monitoring.”

As was the case in the last launches of the Yaogan Weixing series, Western analysts believe this class of satellites is being used for military purposes.

In particular this mission is similar to the Yaogan Weixing-9, Yaogan Weixing-16 and Yaogan Weixing-17, with three satellites flying in formation like a type of NOSS system.

Designed for locating and tracking foreign warships, the satellites will collect the optical and radio electronic signatures of the maritime vessels that will be used in conjunction with other information valuable for the Chinese maritime forces.

Yaogan-9 was launched on March 5, 2010, with Yaogan-16 bring was launched on November 25, 2012, and Yaogan-17 launched on September 1st, 2013.

This launch was the 202nd Chinese orbital launch and the 201st launch of the Long March launch vehicle family. It was also the 65th successful orbital launch from the Jiuquan Satellite launch Center.
