China “kill weapon” targets navy ships
One of the most forgotten players in end-time events is China. We have talked for many years about how China will soon join forces with North Korea and other Oriental nations to march on the Middle East (Revelation 16:12). This is the closing part of a campaign initiated by Russia, who joins with many Arab nations (Psalm 83:4-5; Ezekiel 38:15) to attack Israel (Ezekiel 38 & 39; Daniel 9:26) –and possibly obliterate the USA in the process (Jeremiah 50:24; Revelation 18:10), using the strongest of weapons.
Now comes confirmation of the long-rumored Chinese “kill weapon,” designed to annihilate US aircraft carriers.
With tensions already rising due to the Chinese navy becoming more aggressive in asserting its territorial claims in the South China Sea, the U.S. Navy seems to have yet another reason to be deeply concerned.
After years of conjecture, details have begun to emerge of a “kill weapon” developed by the Chinese to target and destroy U.S. aircraft carriers.
First posted on a Chinese blog viewed as credible by military analysts and then translated by the naval affairs blog Information Dissemination, a recent report provides a description of an anti-ship ballistic missile (ASBM) that can strike carriers and other U.S. vessels at a range of 2000km.
The range of the modified Dong Feng 21 missile is significant in that it covers the areas that are likely hot zones for future confrontations between U.S. and Chinese surface forces.
The size of the missile enables it to carry a warhead big enough to inflict significant damage on a large vessel, providing the Chinese the capability of destroying a U.S. supercarrier in one strike.
Because the missile employs a complex guidance system, low radar signature and a maneuverability that makes its flight path unpredictable, the odds that it can evade tracking systems to reach its target are increased. It is estimated that the missile can travel at mach 10 and reach its maximum range of 2000km in less than 12 minutes.
China is ramping up, all the while strengthening ties with Russia and North Korea.
