India tested an interceptor missile in the Bay of Bengal on 2 November 2022. The long-range ballistic missile was to be tested on 11-12 November. For this NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) was also issued. That is a warning of the no-fly zone during testing. It is a submarine-launched ballistic missile with a range of 3,200 km, which means the whole of China will be in JD.
Fearing this, China sent its missile tracking ship Yuan Wang-6 to the Indian Ocean region for surveillance. Now experts are saying that India may have to stop its missile test. China had sent a similar intelligence ship to Hambantota in Sri Lanka 3 months ago. At that time also India had protested.
India's missile testing was known, yet Wang-6 came
India has announced the creation of a no-fly zone from the Bay of Bengal to the Indian Ocean for long-range ballistic missile tests from November 11 to 12. That is, in the meantime, India would conduct missile tests from Abdul Kalam Island in Odisha. Meanwhile, a Chinese spy ship hit Indonesia's Bali coast. Open-source intelligence expert Damien Simon has questioned its timing.
That is why India has blocked the area between Sri Lanka in the West and Indonesia in the East, which is in the testing range of the missile. On November 4, the Chinese spy ship Yuan Wang-6 entered the Indian Ocean region from the Strait of Lombok in Indonesia. Ever since this spy ship of the Chinese army has come to the Indian Ocean via Indonesia, the Indian Navy is keeping a close watch on it.
With the arrival of China's spy ship, India can postpone the user trial of ballistic missiles. Experts believe that China sent its spy ship to the Indian Ocean region at such a time, from which it tries to steal the intelligence of the missile such as its speed, accuracy, and range.
Intelligence expert Damien Simon says that the deployment of this spy ship also matches China's satellite launching date. This satellite will fly over the Bay of Bengal between November 15 and 20.
Earlier, when China launched the Long March 5B rocket in 2022, the Yuan Wang-5 was on a ship surveillance mission. Most recently it was also involved in maritime surveillance of the launch of the first lab module of China's Tiangong space station.
Successful test of K-4 will enable India to attack any city in China
Defense expert Lt Col (Retd) JS Sodhi says that India is about to conduct its ballistic missile test in the Bay of Bengal on 11-12 November 2022. In all likelihood, the test will be of the K-4 Submarine Ballistic Missile. Although the name of the missile to be tested officially has not been confirmed yet.
The K-4 missile has a range of 3500 km and will be loaded on India's lone nuclear submarine INS Arihant. The test assumes utmost importance as INS Arihant is currently loaded with a K-12 submarine ballistic missile, which has a range of 750 km.
With the successful test of K-4, India will be able to attack any city in China. China is worried about this and so it has sent its spy ship Yuan Wang 6 into the Indian Ocean to monitor the missile test by India. India is fully prepared to deal with this situation created by China and should continue its missile test.
The Chinese military operates the Yuan Wang-6 ship.
China has 7 such spy ships, which are capable of operating in the entire Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. These ships spy and send complete information to the land-based tracking stations of Beijing. China tracks the launch of satellites, rockets, and intercontinental ballistic missiles via the Yuan Wang class ship.
According to the report of the US Department of Defense, this ship is operated by the Strategic Support Force (SSF) of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) of China. SSF is a theater command-level organization. It assists the PLA in space, cyber, electronic, information, communication, and psychological warfare missions.
Missile information before coming in a range of air defense system
Yuan Wang-6 is not a military but a powerful tracking ship. These ships start their movement when China or any other country is doing missile tests. The ship is fitted with hi-tech eavesdropping equipment. With this, it can listen to conversations taking place 1 thousand away.
The missile tracking ship has an electronic system consisting of radar and antenna. This system tracks the missile coming in its range and sends its information to the Air Defense System. That is, the information about the missile is received even before it comes in the range of the air defense system and the attack can be thwarted.
China's spy ship stopped in Sri Lanka in August
In August this year, the Yuan Wang class ship Yuan Wang-5 had halted at Sri Lanka's Hambantota port before returning to the South China Sea. In early August, India lodged a protest with Sri Lanka regarding this spy ship.
On this, the Defense Ministry of Sri Lanka had earlier dismissed the reports of a Chinese ship coming to Hambantota. But later Sri Lanka allowed it to stay at Hambantota Port from 16 to 22 August. Along with India, the US had also expressed concern over the presence of a Chinese spy ship in Hambantota.
