Missiles are heavy weapons for long-range attacks, and they are also important weapons for militarily developed countries, China, the United States and Russia, in terms of intercontinental missiles, how many can the Dongfeng 41 missiles rank?
The US Minuteman 3 missile has a range of 12,500 km
The Minuteman 3 missile is a land-based intercontinental ballistic missile, and it is also one of the important weapons created by the third generation of missile technology in the United States.
Moreover, in recent years, there have been many reports in the United States about the failure of the Minuteman-3 missile, which has made the outside world also question this US intercontinental missile, believing that it is an exaggeration as the US military has propagated and cannot form a precise strike.
The Minuteman three-star missile uses a three-stage solid rocket engine, which can drive missiles with a total weight of more than 7 tons for launch, and the engine thrust is huge.
The Minuteman III ballistic missile can also carry three sub-warheads in the form of bullets inside each missile. In the terminal control system, after increasing the launch speed, these sub-guided warheads can improve the attack route of penetration, form a more violent pursuit, and the maximum strike effect on different targets, so the performance of penetration capability is also relatively ideal.
Although the U.S. Minuteman III missile was mass-produced in the 70s of the 20th century, it has been upgraded and iterated several times in the future, adding a lot of modern equipment, such as gyro-stabilized platforms, terminal computers and various electrical components, as well as control systems, when the Minuteman III missile, when the flight altitude is 240 kilometers, the computer terminal can control the flight trajectory of the mother bomb, and can also make detailed adjustments, so as to make better preparations for the accurate release of the sub-warhead.
Each sub-warhead is discharged separately in turn, not all at once, and each sub-warhead, after the launch is completed, the mother bomb must be corrected and adjusted. Because of the use of a rotating and stable launch method, the overall combat performance of the Minuteman III is still relatively prominent.
The Russian Sarmat has a range of 16,000 km
The maximum range of the Sarmat missile is capable of reaching 16,000 kilometers, and the limit can reach 18,000 kilometers. Some military experts said that the explosive power of the Sarmat missile is equivalent to 200 times that of the atomic bomb dropped by the United States on Hiroshima. The Sarmat missile, known as the most powerful intercontinental ballistic missile in the world today, is also a heavy weapon that the United States is very afraid of.
It is said that the explosion of a Sarmat missile is enough to flatten a small country and destroy it in an instant. Even like the land area of France, a European power, only one Sarmat is needed, which can explode in the central area, and all the blast shock waves can cover the land area of France, so you can imagine how terrifying Sarmat is.
The Sarmat missile, which is also capable of carrying 15 sub-warheads, as a super-heavy missile, the Sarmat's huge flight power, is supported by liquid fuel. To this end, it is possible to carry up to 24 hypersonic YU-71s, and to achieve a more powerful cold launch method by combining warheads and aircraft, and to achieve high-speed take-off of missiles by self-ignition.
The total weight of this missile can reach 200 tons, and the heaviest can push a 10-ton nuclear warhead to quickly hit anywhere in the world, just imagine that a 10-ton nuclear warhead is equivalent to the number of ordinary family cars, and it is full of explosives full of great power, and the explosive power of Sarmat, in fact, the United States is terrified, and it is also the reason why the United States does not dare to provoke Russia easily.
The Chinese Dongfeng 41 has a range of 14,000 kilometers
The Dongfeng-41 ballistic missile is an important part of the mainland's nuclear countermeasures, and it is also one of the super weapons of the mainland as a killer weapon to protect the country, the total weight of the Dongfeng-41 missile exceeds 60 tons, and it is a powerful super-heavy missile, the Dongfeng-41 is 21 meters long, 2.25 meters wide, and 16.5 meters long.
The maximum range of the Dongfeng-41 can reach 14,000 kilometers, which can cover any position in the country, launched from the mainland, and can hit the vast majority of targets around the world within 30 minutes, and the flight speed per second has reached 8.3 kilometers, and the flight speed is 7 times that of the mainland's fifth-generation fighter J-20, which can fly 310,000 kilometers per hour and reach Mach 25 at the earliest.
This terrifying flight speed is beyond the power of any interception system in the world, and it also has an amazing performance in terms of destruction intensity, capable of carrying 10 sub-warheads or a 3 million ton nuclear warhead, the power of the explosion and impact, which cannot be described in words, and the error of strike accuracy is very small.
Not only that, Dongfeng 41 also has stealth ability, while speeding at high speed, through the stealth function to reduce the enemy's advance preparation, increase the guarantee of successful penetration, and achieve the maximum strike on the enemy.
Comparing the three types of ICBMs of China, the United States and Russia, it can be seen that heavy long-range ICBMs play an irreplaceable and important role in defending against and countering the enemy, and are also the security guarantee of major countries.
