In 2016, China Electronics Technology Group Corporation (CETC) announced that it had tested a quantum radar with a range of around 62 miles, or 100 kilometers — roughly five times further than the range of its US and German competitors, Popular Science reported. The next generation of the radar will be capable of tracking ballistic missiles in outer space and aircraft flying at extremely high altitudes, the South China Morning Post reported Friday. By mounting a quantum radar onto a near-space vehicle, China's air force could "effectively monitor high-speed flying objects in the upper atmosphere and above," CETC said at an industry exhibition in Nanjing, SCMP added. © Photo : РКЦRussian Creator of Largest Quantum Computer Predicts How Technology Will Change the World The quantum system developed by China is meant to track stealthy US aircraft, according to the SCMP story, which … [Read more...] about China Working Toward Next-Gen Quantum Radar to Track Ballistic Missiles

Russian Nuclear Submarine Test-Launches ‘Bulava’ Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles
The Russian Navy test-launched four intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) from a nuclear-powered submarine in the White Sea on Tuesday.The Bulava missile, designed for Russia’s fleet of ballistic missile-carrying Borei-class nuclear submarines, is capable of delivering up to 10 nuclear warheads at a range of 8,000 kilometers. Russia has been paying ever greater attention to bolstering its nuclear deterrent in recent years as the United States works to deploy anti-ballistic missile defenses in Europe. Four Bulavas reached their practice targets in the Far East after being launched from a submerged position in the White Sea, the Navy said Wednesday.“It was the first-ever salvo fire from this type of submarine,” the Navy’s Northern Fleet said in an online statement, referring to the Borei-class Yury Dolgoruky, a nuclear-powered boat commissioned in 2014. The Borei-class Yury Dolgoruky, part of Russia's nuclear modernization effort intended to revitalize a … [Read more...] about Russian Nuclear Submarine Test-Launches ‘Bulava’ Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles

Statement by the Spokesperson on the reported Submarine-Launched Ballistic Missile launch by the DPRK
Author: EEAS. The following press release was issued by the EEAS on August 24, 2016 11:13. The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) appears to have fired a Submarine-Launched Ballistic Missile earlier today. If confirmed, this would constitute yet another serious violation by the DPRK of its international obligations as set out in multiple UN Security Council Resolutions. The DPRK must halt all missile launches using ballistic missile technology and abandon its ballistic missile programmes in a complete, verifiable and irreversible manner.
