It's all a business. But one thing: the Chinese (and maybe Russia) are the only nations who have missiles in space along with satellites. Not much talk on U.S. news about this. Don't want to freak out the public? New details of Chinese space weapons revealed http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/oct/14/inside-the-ring-details-of-chinese-space-weapons-r/?page=all By Bill Gertz - - Wednesday, October 14, 2015 A forthcoming report by the congressional U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission provides new details of China’s space-weapons programs, dubbed counterspace arms, that are aimed at destroying or jamming U.S. satellites and limiting American combat operations around the world. “China is pursuing a broad and robust array of counterspace capabilities, which includes direct-ascent anti-satellite missiles, co-orbital anti-satellite systems, computer network operations, ground-based satellite jammers and directed energy weapons,” a late draft of the commission’s annual report states. “China’s nuclear arsenal also provides an inherent anti-satellite capability.” China military planners expect to use a combination of kinetic, electronic and cyber attacks against satellites or ground support structures in a conflict. SEE ALSO: Obama rejects Putin’s offer to coordinate military action in Syria Two direct-ascent missiles capable of hitting satellites in both lower and higher orbits are under development, the SC-19 and the DN-2. Anti-satellite missile tests were carried out as recently as last year. The high-orbit DN-2 can hit U.S. Global Positioning Satellites but appears more suited for blowing up U.S. intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance satellites. The DN-2 could be deployed in five to 10 years. For space-based weapons, China is developing co-orbital anti-satellite weapons. -- I wonder if the Chinese bought parts or whole systems from U.S. firms like Lockheed Monster, Raytheon, Boing! (Boeing), Northrup Grumman for their space race missile systems. --------------------- |
