These days the discussion of China's hypersonic missile is in full swing. China has tested a state-of-the-art hypersonic missile capable of carrying nuclear weapons, then America's intelligence system has come under threat. However, China has officially denied this. It claims that this test was not a missile but a spacecraft. Despite this, there is a debate going on around the world regarding this test of China. After all, why is America scared of this test of China? What is its specialty? How does America view this test? The question is, is China's hypersonic test the beginning of a new arms race?
Difference between ballistic and hypersonic missile
1- Prof. Harsh V Pant says that America sees this as a big challenge of the future. America is afraid of hypersonic missiles' firepower and its specialty. This missile moves towards its target five times faster than the speed of sound. The hypersonic missile is a state-of-the-art missile technology. These missiles move towards the target so fast that anti-missile systems are incapable of reconnaissance. Anti-missile systems cannot track and destroy them.
2- He said that ballistic missiles also run at hypersonic speed, but when it is released from a place, it is easily known where it will fall. These missiles are also easy to track. Along with this, the direction of these missiles cannot be changed after being launched. Change of direction of hypersonic missile is possible.
3- This missile glides at hypersonic speed in the atmosphere and moves towards its target. The specialty of hypersonic missiles is that they do not form arcs and projectiles like ballistic missiles, due to which their targets are difficult to detect. Due to this, it does not come under the grip of the anti-missile defense system.
4- It is almost impossible to stop the hypersonic missile with the help of an anti-missile defense system. Not only this, this missile does not even come under the radar. This creates confusion regarding the target of these missiles.
The game-changer is a hypersonic missile
China has recently tested a hypersonic missile equipped with a nuclear missile. Many are considering this as a major achievement of China and a game-changer in the arms sector. This has increased the concern of America. The Chinese army has launched such rockets twice in the last few times, which after circling the whole earth, targeted their target. However, China has denied the US concern. He said that this was a test related to the reuse of old spacecraft. Let us tell you that America, Russia, and China have been trying to make hypersonic weapons for a long time. This also includes the creation of a glide vehicle. It is released into space with a rocket. After this, he moves towards his goal while circling the earth.
What is America's concern?
This test of Dragon is a matter of concern for Washington amid rising tensions between the US and China. America had no idea that China would develop this technology. In the last two decades, China has emphasized developing its missile system to military equipment. In such a situation, it is a surprise for America. After this technology, an equal relationship has become between China and America. A nuclear-armed hypersonic glide vehicle could help China dodge US missile defense systems. Some experts are seeing this as a warning for the future.
Once again alarm bells for the world
60 years from now, there was a time in world history when the dominance of America was challenged by Russia. This is known as the Cuban Crisis. This was the time when a nuclear war-like situation arose between the former Soviet Union and America. After all, efforts were made by both countries to reduce the tension in the relationship. Many treaties were made between the two countries so that the threat of nuclear war could be avoided. These treaties prevented the threat of nuclear war. The special thing is that after the Cuban Missile Crisis, the world came to understand that if one country runs nuclear weapons, then the other can also run it. This can lead to the destruction of both countries.
