China develops anti-stealth radars ( Η Κίνα εξελλίσει αντί-στέλθ ραντάρ)

ΣΧΟΛΙΟ ΙΣΤΟΛΟΓΙΟΥ :Σύμφωνα με κάποιες μελέτες που έχουν γίνει, η ακτινοβολία terahertz μπορεί να έχει αλληλοεπίδραση με το δίκλωνο d.n.a . Η ακτινοβολία THz έχει μια κλίμακα κυμάτων μεταξύ αυτών των υπέρυθρων ακτίνων και των μικροκυμάτων, και μπορούν να «αποσυνδέσουν το δίκλωνο DNA δημιουργώντας φυσαλίδες στο διπλό σκέλος που θα μπορούσαν να παρεμβαίνουν σημαντικά σε διαδικασίες όπως γονιδιακή έκφραση και αντιγραφή DNA .

Chinese arms companies recently made multiple terahertz radiation radar systems with a technology seen by experts as an efficient air-to-ground reconnaissance tool and a potential counter to stealth aircraft.
A prototype terahertz radiation radar was successfully developed by a China Electronics Technology Group Corporation (CETC) team led by scientist Li Yuanji, and a second-generation prototype is already in development, China Central Television (CCTV) reported on Sunday, citing a statement released by CETC.
The development of terahertz radiation radar is a global challenge, according to the CETC statement.
The CCTV report said that terahertz radiation has wavelengths between those of infrared rays and microwaves, a wide spectrum that would render current stealth technologies obsolete, making the radar able to detect stealth aircraft.
Stealth aircraft usually use composite materials and radar wave-absorbing coatings, so normal radars cannot effectively detect them, Wei Dongxu, a Beijing-based military analyst, told the Global Times on Monday.
Terahertz radiat
ion, on the other hand, could penetrate those materials and expose metallic parts within the aircraft, lifting its cover, Wei said.
He also noted that a terahertz radiation radar could also clearly trace the outline of an object, making it possible to even tell what type of object it is.
Experts said the terahertz radiation decays very fast in the air, meaning, the effective range of the radar is likely low and not sufficient for detecting an advanced stealth fighter jet in time before it launches attacks from beyond visual range.
While the anti-stealth aspect of the technology still needs time to be ironed out, the technology can be used for air-to-ground reconnaissance at great efficiency, Wei noted.
China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (CASIC) successfully developed China's first terahertz radiation video synthetic aperture radar, Beijing-based newspaper Science and Technology Daily reported in December 2018.
The CASIC radar uses terahertz radiation to see through complicated environments like smoke, smog and dim lights, and can efficiently detect ground infantry targets in camouflage and disguise, the newspaper said, noting it has a stronger penetration capability than infrared vision devices.
When placed on an aircraft or a drone, the radar would allow operators to clearly see battlefield situations and deliver precision strikes on targets that would be otherwise difficult to detect, Wei said.
Targets will have nowhere to hide, said the newspaper.
