U.S. Space Surveillance System STSS first successful missile tracking

Core Tip: 16 March, a Northrop Grumman demonstration LEO satellite for the first time a ballistic missile launch was detected throughout the flight track. In the coming months, the U.S. Missile Defense Agency will attempt to access missile launch STSS satellite data used, then, the satellite will be in the target missile was radar detected before the aircraft prompted the standard -3 interceptor missile launch.


Data Figure: U.S. STSS satellites before launch

According to the U.S. Space News March 23, 2011 reported on March 16, Northrop Grumman BAE Systems made a pair of low-orbit demonstration satellite for the first time a ballistic missile launch process of the entire flightthe Detection and Tracking.

Northrop Grumman's management of missile defense and early warning projects, Doug Young, vice president (Doug Young) said that never before launching ballistic missiles from space, the so-called "from birth to death," the track, which is by far the space tracking and surveillance System (STSS) satellites of the most important achievements.

March 16, a short-range target missile ARAV-B from the Hawaiian island of Kauai Pacific Missile Range launch. STSS satellites detected by a sensor to detect its thermal emission signal, and then locked to accelerate universal tracking sensors in the missile. Tracking data was successfully relayed to another satellite, the satellite through space on the target, atmospheric re-entry and splash down the process to keep track of the ocean.

STSS follow-up to 2011 test will be more complicated. In the coming months, the U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA) will attempt to access missile launch STSS satellite data used (data from the "Defense Support Program" in the running of the missile warning satellite), and not rely on the detection of STSSsensor.

Another test in 2011 will attempt to determine whether the STSS satellite tracking data generated good enough to prompt ship missile interceptor missile launched, it is the idea of ​​a remote transmitter. Currently, the U.S. Navy Aegis warship radar detected only in the ballistic missile, the interceptor missile to launch the implementation destroyed. If the interceptor missile can be located at the front of the sensor based on the prompts launch, each missile defense warships to the range will be greatly increased.

MDA budget documents show the U.S. Navy and MDA plans to implement in April 2011 launched its first Aegis intercept long-range test, then, set the front of the AN/TPY-2 X-band radar, the target missile will be detected by radarBefore launching Standard Missile tips (SM-3) interceptor missiles.

Similarly, later in 2011, STSS demonstration satellites will try to track the target missile and data to the Aegis system, the interceptor missile launch early generation "fire control program." However, the test will not really launch interceptor missiles.

At the same time, MDA is building to run a missile tracking satellite constellation, that is "accurate tracking of space systems." MDA will depend on the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory developed a prototype system, and launched in 2015. Expected to select one industry team in 2014, construction is available from 9 to 12 satellites, planned for 2018 launch. Budget documents show, MDA plans between 2012 to 2016 as "accurate tracking of space systems" put 1.34 billion.

People's Liberation Army colonel: United States, "one naval and air war" theory against China

Core Tip: PLA Senior Colonel Fan Gao that "integrated air and sea war" made when the U.S. is the only superpower, has the world's most powerful army, not by any country or group of actual threat, and the Asia-Pacific region is alsorelative stability of the region. This description indicates that some changes in thinking that the opponents of international terrorists into the PLA.

Data Figure: China's 90 years since the last century, since the long-term double-digit military spending growth.

Safety net of international relations, Switzerland March 23 article in the original title: "One Sea and Air War" clash of views (of Alexei Eric Hayes, Fan Gao)

U.S. Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) Pacific Forum belongs to the two permanent researchers integrated sea and air warfare doctrine debate. 201O to 2011, "Sasakawa Peace Foundation," researcher Eric Alexei Permanent Fund and the People's Liberation Army colonel Hayes, 2011, "World Development fan club - Tsuchida" Permanent Fund, Fan Gao researchers are US-made view of the two countries.

Sayers: the U.S. worries China's military

The late 70s of last century, the Soviet Union prompted the U.S. military capability, enhanced operational planners proposed a so-called "integrated air-ground war" theory of joint operations, and its purpose is to maintain a credible military balance in Europe.

Coincidentally, the 2010 United States, "Quadrennial Defense Review Report" directs the Air Force and Navy that "integrated air and sea war" theory of joint operations to achieve two goals: to further strengthen joint operations, eliminate duplication of resources and equipment, while the power to stop the Asia-Pacific region The growing imbalance in the balance of power.

China has become the world's second largest economy. Since the last century, 90 years, economic growth, the PLA's defense budget to double-digit growth every year. While Chinese diplomats insisted that their country's rise will be peaceful, but the ability to show that Beijing's military spending in China to organize a joint action to prevent U.S. freedom of action in the region. In China the development of offensive combat platforms - such as precision-guided land-attack and anti-ship ballistic missiles and cruise missiles, sports and non sports anti-satellite weapons, as well as network and electromagnetic warfare capabilities - when questioned in many countries claiming to Chinaself-defense of its national defense purposes only.

Although Beijing's some people on the "integrated sea and air war" doctrine expressed concern, but they did not seem to realize that the United States doctrine, at least partly in response to competitors appear. As the United States, "Quadrennial Defense Review Report," points out, these competitors "with advanced anti-access and area denial capabilities." If the U.S. is extremely worried about Beijing's military modernization that is willing to propose a new joint operations doctrine, then the extent to which Beijing for Washington to dispel doubts about its future intentions it?

Fan Gao: The Chinese strategy is defensive in nature

If the "integrated sea and air war" and "integrated air-ground war" comparable to, the U.S. military is at the wrong time and wrong place to make a wrong decision. "Integrated air-ground war" in the United States and its allies are stronger a serious threat to the Warsaw Treaty Organization, the European battlefield bristling fortifications became plain when the initiative. In contrast, "one naval and air war" made when the U.S. is the only superpower, has the world's most powerful army, not by any country or group of actual threat, and the Asia-Pacific region is also relatively stable region .

In such an international environment, the "sea-air integration War" marks some important changes: the international terrorist opponents into Liberation Army (Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, the report clearly pointed this out); the battlefield and from the Middle East Central Asia into the western Pacific; combat targets to destroy international terrorist networks from the defeated into the PLA; army building from the fighting capability into the basis of the threats against. These changes in countries throughout the region will have a tremendous impact forces.

If the "integrated sea and air war" to stop the increasing imbalance in the balance of power, then it means that the U.S. intends to get more troops for the advantages of countries in the region. The United States has in the Asia-Pacific region to enjoy the balance of power; the United States has the most powerful army invincible world.

If the "integrated sea and air war" in response to the PLA increasingly sophisticated anti-access and area denial capabilities, those capabilities that the PLA is on the U.S. commitment to help Taiwan defend the reactions.

Similarly, if the U.S. military that "one air and sea war" theory is to deal with the PLA, the PLA will be forced to develop "anti-sea and air - body combat" military doctrine and capabilities. That you come to me no good to China and the United States.

China's strategy is defensive. But defensive strategy does not mean that China does not need offensive weapons. And in fact does not exist purely defensive weapons. Nature of the act only through the intent, purpose and its use to be defined, but there is no essential link with the weapon itself. China's development, such as aircraft carriers, stealth fighters and F-20 precision-guided missiles and other weapon systems approach is its consistent defense strategy. China will not challenge the U.S. military presence in the Asia Pacific region. China preaches. If the United States less suspicious, more trust, it will not be so doubt China's intentions.

Sayers: China dissatisfied with U.S. military presence

Fan colonel said, all countries in the Asia-Pacific region to promote cooperation and security in the proposed "integrated sea and air war" theory would undermine the process. This is the optimistic interpretation of the regional security environment. Although he insisted that China "will not challenge the U.S. military presence in the Asia Pacific region," witnessed over the past two years people dissatisfied with Beijing on the issue of the U.S. military presence has repeatedly - and in many cases provocative - diplomatic and military signal. The headache may be more reluctant to admit that its actions in China led to this trend, so to avoid future misunderstandings become more difficult. .

In addition, Fan colonel that the proposed "integrated sea and air war" doctrine that Washington intends to Beijing as a rival. However, Washington in the past 30 years has been doing everything humanly possible for China to become strong. Fan colonel insisted that the development of anti-access and area denial capability is the result of the U.S. commitment to defend Taiwan.So if the U.S. abandoned Taiwan, China will stop the development of these skills?

More importantly, there is a secondary-level results. China's military power enhancement makes Australia and Japan said the U.S. military commitment to the confidence in the region. In the future, Washington will not be so confident that the intervention to support its allies. Strategists are worried that Singapore and the Philippines such a small country may be "Finnish" and that their freedom of action of repression by the Chinese military power.

I pointed out that China should help to stop the arms race to incite a vicious cycle of mutual suspicion, Senior Colonel Fan responded that the U.S. should be "less suspicious and more trust." Growth in China's national strength, the U.S. gambling capital of China has not become more aggressive it? Beijing can not answer this question prompted a "sea-air one of the war" theory proposed.

Fan Gao: China is worthy of trust the United States

China does not challenge, and even welcomed the U.S. military presence in the Asia-Pacific, this does not mean that China will tolerate the United States harm China's national interests. Mr Sayers asked, "If the U.S. abandons Taiwan, China will stop the development of these capabilities", I believe the answer is yes. Taiwan is the number one obstacle to improving Sino-US relations. If the United States to abandon Taiwan, we will stop the development of anti-access and area denial capabilities, and other problems will be solved.

Mr. Sayers worry, a small country could become a "strategy of Finland," the victim. This is a Cold War mentality. China is not the Soviet Union, there was no confrontation with the United States or Western group of countries. We need more innovative thinking.

Mr Sayers said the vicious cycle of mutual suspicion in China also have a responsibility. Trust is mutual. China not only has clearly expressed its intent, and purpose to do a lot of things to prove themselves worthy of trust. In view of the two sides agreed to establish cooperative and constructive relations, China has never been hostile to the U.S. sale of high-tech weapons, the Chinese government has never been to the United States as their greatest threat or potential enemy, the Chinese National People's Congress never asked to write an annual Department of Defense U.S. military reports, the Defense Department never raised the concept of specific U.S. military operations, the PLA has never sent reconnaissance aircraft or vessels near the U.S. territory, airspace or territorial waters to collect military intelligence. China hopes the U.S. can do so.

Chief architect, said: AC313 helicopter lost altitude performance is not imported products

Core Tip: September 2010, AC313 helicopter fly the Tibetan Plateau, at an altitude of 5,200 meters of climbing Everest base camp a successful landing.Chief architect Xu Chaoliang said, AC313 helicopter proved its excellence in the Tibetan Plateau and imported less than similar models, but the gap between advanced helicopter is still great.


Data Figure: AC313 helicopter made a successful landing Everest Base Camp



Data Figure: Chengdu Military Region army aviation's "Black Hawk" helicopters flying over the Potala Palace, the "Black Hawk" is one of the few who have long-term capacity of the helicopter altitude

September 2010, the highly anticipated AC313 helicopter flew to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, 5231 m above sea level over the Tanggula mouth, across the Kunlun Mountains and Hoh Xil no man's land, at an altitude of 5,200 meters of climbing Everest base camp a successful landing.

The flight altitude range of about 1.2 million km, single sorties to 1160 km, creating the largest domestic helicopter flight altitude and the maximum height of a series of flights taking off and landing records. Testing mission for the successful completion of the plateau, the aircraft industry composed of Chang and helicopters fly with a powerful flight altitude and high altitude flight test team members protect commando team.

Xu Chaoliang great emotion, said, AC313 made history in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which is the pride of the Chinese helicopter, is developing models of team glory. The face of various honors, Xu Chaoliang said modestly as the chief architect of just trying to do a "modest" in force.

In order to do that this "modest" in force, Xu Chaoliang exhausted efforts. In 2002, he returned from studies abroad, soon took over as chief architect of straight 8. At that time, 8 is in direct tasks without modification, no development costs and non-users to order the extremely difficult condition.

He despite difficulties, the market demand, put forward a platform technology to enhance effective development path and model, the goal is to enhance Gaixing Ji's core competitiveness, expand market space. Under his leadership, the research team, after years of efforts, and finally to glow with infinite vitality straight 8.

So far, straight 8-series has been improved more than 10 models, the production of nearly 5 years, 15 years before delivery to several times the total user base has been greatly expanded, and achieved a major military, social and economic benefits.

However, Xu Chaoliang has never been satisfied with this, his heart, I have a strong desire to make a comprehensive domestic helicopter service in the national economic construction and emergency rescue and other social and public affairs, play a unique role in the helicopter, to better benefit the community, benefit the people.

He believes that through generations of Chinese people 50 years of efforts helicopters, our technology has in a number of helicopters has made considerable progress in important areas, the helicopter industry is also gradually mature, but the helicopter industry is still in its infancy, this is a great country The position is not commensurate.

Xu Chaoliang of "5.12" Wenchuan earthquake has been difficult to explain.Was able to directly participate in earthquake relief planes made only a few straight 8 helicopter, play a major role in the plateau are mostly imported, large tonnage of helicopters.

He has worked in a public report of the meeting, said: Wenchuan disaster relief this, so I, as a helicopter who deeply felt the weight of responsibility on the shoulders. Countries need to develop a civilian helicopter, which gives us the helicopter is a national historic mission of scientific research personnel.

Although the civil helicopter industry in China has just departed, but has shown a strong gratifying situation. "History has given us a rare opportunity, people are eagerly looking forward to, we can not let that opportunity pass by." Xu Chaoliang said.

AC313 helicopter proved its excellence in the Tibetan Plateau and imported less than similar models, but the key to long-term development relationship helicopter technical barriers still exist, and the gap between advanced helicopter is still great.

Of this situation, Xu Chaoliang has a clear understanding, he said, we have a number of key technical issues, there continue to be, must be determined to improve himself and insist the target perseverance in research, the only way to be able to lay a solid sustainable development of the helicopter foundation, it will be possible to achieve advanced level in the world to catch up.

AC313 helicopter who paint colorful auspicious birds to people leaving an unforgettable impression. Xu Chaoliang told the author that the idea came from the legendary auspicious magic bird. Bird in colorful garb marching rays and clouds, the earth brought happiness and well-being, which is the Wenchuan Earthquake Relief to Life "Eagle" tribute.

What a wonderful imaginative and always, it expresses the most deep and sincere person helicopter developed feelings, but also the greatest hope Xu Chaoliang mind - to domestic helicopter fly higher, fly farther.

Used for maritime patrol and anti-submarine anti-submarine patrol aircraft, the main task of the implementation of the potential warning, and guide their own against the enemy forces or other anti-submarine attack submarines. For decades, the United States "P-3C" anti-submarine aircraft had the limelight, but now a rising star about to be replaced.

Warning Matador: Spanish "A319" Patrol Machine

Spain, "A319" patrol unit, is the European Airbus military research and development for the Spanish maritime patrol and a long-range early warning aircraft, airborne early warning not only to perform the task, and perform surveillance, reconnaissance and search missions, and its ultra-long range , long life and excellent low-altitude cruise speed make the implementation of the cruise, marine search and other projects on the high score, but can rely on the machine equipped with the weapons system to perform anti-submarine and anti-ship and a series of operations, and is considered the new patroldevelopment of a machine direction.

"A319" patrol unit volume grew out of Airbus A319, the production of low cost, production cycle than the R & D and production of maritime patrol aircraft is much shorter. Task structure with an open system, modified as necessary to integrate a large number of military sensors and radar systems.

It is equipped with a powerful anti-submarine and anti-ship weapons, can be mounted air-to-ship or air-ground missiles. Equipped with advanced electronic warfare system for anti-radar, anti-missiles, including the whole direction of the bait systems, onboard electronic support system, the directional infrared countermeasures system to fight Most infrared guided missile attacks. This is also the NATO military machine to win the favor of many reasons.

Deep Blue whalers: Japan "P-1" anti-submarine aircraft

Service life has been reached to replace the "P-3C" anti-submarine aircraft, the Japanese had been made "PX" development program, the current "P-1" anti-submarine reconnaissance equipment has begun, the 3rd Asia-Pacific region to deploy self-developed long-range maritime patrol aircraft countries.

"P-1" in the power system, equipped with 4 turbofan engines, with fuel consumption and low noise characteristics. The anti-submarine aircraft's cruising speed of over 830 km / h, significantly more than the "P-3C" of 620 km / h, and the former reached cruising altitude 13,000 meters, has more than a "P-3C" 8800 meters, the aircraft greatly increase the size of the area of ​​detection.

And "P-3C" than, "P-1" on the submarine detection capability has been improved several times, equipped with more advanced sonar systems, sonar buoys equipped with high-performance, with strong detection capabilities. It is equipped with advanced infrared detector and electronic signal, can detect multiple means.

The aircraft speed, range far, combat radius, the high level of information technology, operational effectiveness is superior to "P-3C" aircraft. In comparison, the latter is more suitable for normal patrols, and its more obvious offensive.

Air versatile: the United States "P-8A" anti-submarine aircraft

As "P-3C" successor, "P-8A" anti-submarine aircraft, Boeing developed the latest generation of multi-purpose anti-submarine aircraft. The anti-submarine patrol aircraft for search and destroy ships and submarines, but also for gathering intelligence and reconnaissance missions.

The machine uses jet engines, turboprop aircraft and has the same fuel consumption, and its speed is difficult to compare with the general advantages of patrol aircraft, compared to "energy-saving engine fitted with Cadillac." It is more attention to security design, such as the original design of the tip shape is bent upward, and later changed to Raked wing tips. This is in other parts of the wing tip and a plane will help melt more quickly after the aircraft wing icing.

The aircraft are many and large compartments so vast and complex radar and electronic equipment can be installed as distributed, the electromagnetic waves generated when the work will not interfere with each other, but also means access to more precise target information, and can collect more low-frequency signals.

It has a strong combat capability, with built-in weapons bay and six wing hardpoints. With the "P-8A" debut, "P-3C" also to the longer-time.

U.S. "handover of power" NATO: left to right

NATO representatives of 28 Member States in Brussels on June 27 to discuss military action against Libya to take full control matters. Once agreed, NATO will formally take over the US-led multinational comprehensive Libya's military action. Analysts believe that military action against Libya only to cover the transfer of command means, the United States in which the impact and the dominant position has not changed, the handover of power from the left handed but also right.

Heavy pressure before the war

Obama is within the Government should resort to force was divided on the issue, Obama face of the constraints at home and abroad was wavering. This is for the U.S. commitment to the transfer of command of military operations foreshadowed. Obama admitted that the withdrawal of U.S. troops in Afghanistan and Iraq war, the United States before making the decision to use force even more difficult.

In foreign relations, United States, "Time" magazine well-known commentator Zakaria that Obama fear war in Iraq, repeating the former taking the road of unilateralism defeat suffered by fear following the Afghanistan, Iraq, the U.S. Third Islamic countries to launch a military attack would further infuriate the Islamic world. Therefore, until the League of Arab States expressed support for establishment of no-fly zone in Libya, the White House was asked the Pentagon to speed up the development of relevant military action.

In the United States, the upcoming re-election of Barack Obama also has its political worries. When the United States Congress, the Bush administration against Iraq vote, Obama voted against one of the few members. Later, the United States into the quagmire of the Iraq war, suffered heavy casualties, Obama won an important political capital. It also became his presidential campaign in 2008 the most powerful weight.

If the U.S. interest to actively participate in the use of force command, Obama may be considered a belligerent president. His opponent would seize his "inconsistent words and deeds" of the handle. Obama, determined to win re-election can not scruples.

After the war torn

For Obama, a decision made by the use of force is not easy.

Some support for military intervention as soon as people think, help the Libyan opposition in terms of Obama wait too long.

Some usually stand with the Democrats, Barack Obama condemned the use of force. Some members of Congress that Obama has not authorized the use of force before the full consultation with Congress, the purpose of military action is not clear. There are a few members that authorized military action without authorization Obama suspected breach of constitution, or even hinted could then start impeachment proceedings against him.

Some have pointed out that Obama promises "limited military action", but after the U.S. government to take action against Afghanistan and Iraq when the Americans to ensure that operations would end soon, may be not the case.Boston University professor Andrew Michelle Popovich believes that the action is likely to expand as support interventions will not just be satisfied with Libya's Gaddafi's troops forced to stop the attack.

At the same time, many countries expressed opposition to the West under the banner of the name of the implementation of Security Council resolution for military action against Libya.

Public opinion, in this case, the transfer of command all the attention shift is clearly Obama, a move out of their predicament chess.

After the handover of power is the dominant

26, held demonstrations outside the White House's "immediate action to stop the war to eliminate racism," Brian Becker, head of the organization, told reporters that the so-called hand over the command of NATO, but is "deceiving." He said NATO is to build from the US-led military organization, the United States handed over command of NATO, the equivalent of "left to right."

Careful attention to the evening of 24 NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen in an interview with CNN's speech can understand the so-called transfer of command can not stand the scrutiny of the "camouflage."

Rasmussen said in his speech that NATO take over the U.S. no-fly zone from the command action, action will be grouped together NATO's top military commander, Supreme Allied Commander Europe James Costa Fulidisi command.斯塔夫里迪斯 eight children, but now the U.S. Navy four-star general, commander of U.S. European Command.

Another image of the point that the whole so-called "Odyssey Dawn" on the benefits of command of military operations only by the commander of U.S. Africa Command to Carter Ham, commander of the U.S. European Command 斯塔夫里迪斯. Thus, the U.S. ability to influence and control can be described as a new name.
