Topic: China's land-based mid-course anti-missile test successfully attracted international attention
On the evening of April 14, 2023, China successfully conducted the seventh land-based midcourse anti-missile test, which attracted widespread attention from the international community. This successful experiment has raised many questions and discussions in the context of the international political landscape.
The U.S. Global Thunder-23 strategic nuclear exercise is seen as a manifestation of nuclear deterrence, and China's choice to conduct a land-based midcourse anti-missile test at this time has caused speculation. Is this just a coincidence? What is the technical level of China's anti-missile system? In response to the threat of US missiles, does it have the ability to hit with one hit?
However, China's Ministry of Defense released information that the PLA conducted a successful test of land-based midcourse anti-missile interception technology and achieved its desired goal. The test was emphasized as defensive and not directed at any country. China's anti-missile system has been successfully tested seven times, with a success rate of 100%, showing mature and perfect technology.
In contrast, the success rate of the U.S. land-based midcourse anti-missile interception test was less than 60 percent. This means that in war, if an adversary launches 100 strategic missiles, only 60 can be intercepted, leaving 40 uninterceptable. This could have devastating consequences. China's successful test marks the country's possession of cutting-edge military technology, becoming the second country to have a collisional interception capability. In addition, China has a global reconnaissance and early warning system, which has improved its early warning capability against incoming missiles. This is one of the few countries that has this system, and even Russia does not fully have it.
However, to ask whether it is possible to hit a hostile missile with one hit, it is necessary to consider the difficulty of mid-course interception. This includes early warning, target positioning, precision calculations and interception, which require a high degree of technical and computing power. Interception itself is also challenging, as it requires the complete destruction of the target missile, not just hitting it off track. Mid-course anti-missile interception technology is difficult, but it is crucial under the needs of homeland defense, especially in the current context of international competition.
In short, China's successful land-based mid-course anti-missile test shows the country's great progress in the field of military technology and has aroused widespread concern in the international community. Under the current international political landscape, China must continue to strengthen its national defense and military strength to safeguard national security and sovereignty. Establishing cooperative relations with other countries to promote win-win development is also a direction worth exploring.
