PLA 'sinks' US carrier in DF-21D missile test in Gobi

The People's Liberation Army has successfully sunk a US aircraft carrier, according to a satellite photo provided by Google Earth, reports our sister paper Want Daily — though the strike was a war game, the carrier a mock-up platform and the "sinking" occurred on dry land in a remote part of western China.

A satellite image reveals two large craters on a 200-meter-long white platform in the Gobi desert used to simulate the flight deck of an aircraft carrier. The photo was first posted on SAORBATS, an internet forum based in Argentina. Military analysts believed the craters would have been created by China's DF-21D anti-ship missile, dubbed the "carrier killer."

It means absolutely nothing, who cares.

Was the simulation done with the US using laser weapons as defense?

What about all the technology we don't even have a clue about.

Yes, even your Uncle or "GLP insiders" who think you know everything don't.

The tech you actually see is at least 40-50 years behind what is shown to the public and even those with high level military security clearance. Everything is compartmentalized.

Bullshit.

America probably has space based lasers that could pick off that rocket easily.

If China are stupid enough to think this will work, they deserve to get their asses kicked.

I think they are trolling.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20253056


The Chinese have the capability to take those out, along with the satellites the high tech weapons of the U.S. rely upon.

Then it becomes toe to toe.

Read what happened at the river in Korea when the the U.S. pushed up against it.

The biggest U.S. retreat in history up to that point in time.

And btw.... the so-called space weaponry of the U.S. was unable to take out the satellite killer the Chinese used in 2008.

Uhm the lasers are now being mounted on aircraft...not satellites. Two totally different things.

You know all of the latest and greatest up to date tech that the military actually uses? If so a white van is parked outside your house now eavesdropping.

Trust me you or I don't even have a clue.

It stated in the article the missile DF-21D they used does not even have the capability to reach the west coast of the US.

Kinda hilarious

and comparing Korea, which was a proxy war how many decades ago to this is hilarious.

(Letter published 8 years ago)
Camden Conference Needs ‘Billy Mitchell’

After WW I an army aviator, Billy Mitchell, insisted aircraft could sink battle ships. This was something the military brass would not hear. Mitchell was ridiculed. Demonstrations were arranged. Mitchell was
right. The brass had resisted the crucial.

The brass currently resists seeing the new ease of sinking ships. Prior to the invasion of Iraq there was the most expensive war-game ever, $250,000,000. It was Iraq vs. America. Surprise, surprise…, Iraq won. This embarrassment would have been kept quiet, but it came out first in the very conservative Army Times. They saw the danger. Articles on the Internet will talk about the brilliance of the retired Lt. General Van Riper, USMC, who played Iraq. The articles discuss his ‘swarm attack’.
They are, unfortunately, too cryptic about looming danger. True Van Riper is brilliant. However, sinking naval ships needs only will, not brilliance. On our present course American ships will sink. Just like the longbow, simple rearrangement of available weaponry will be decisive.

Brassy knights resisted the longbow too. The thought of peasants taking out knights was ridiculous. How could just a longer bow pierce armor? “Sir Uppyhad, before you ride out there with your new armor I would suggest you see what Yeoman York here can do at eighty paces to your old
armor.” Uppyhad listens or dies.

It was an eye opener 25 years ago when the H.M.S. Sheffield, a British destroyer, was sunk in the Falkland War by a French missile. But back then the danger seemed to be only from modern navies; missiles launched from ships or planes. This quality of missile, now way over 20 years old, can be launched from the seabed, even hidden in the sand with pop-up launchers built from nothing but liquid vinyl and sawdust. Just a few other dummy targets would scramble the ship’s defenses.

During the real Iraq invasion the navy pulled out the stops to counter this threat. If a satellite spotted a trawler hovering in the Gulf an underwater team would be sent to bottom scout. I spoke to one of those divers in the Norfolk, Virginia airport. He said they were under
equipped and under manned. The doctors sent him on leave because of exhaustion. He readily admitted that if there were any attempt to disguise missiles underwater they would not be found.

The Gulf seabed was also scouted with unmanned ‘Hydroid’ subs created by Ken Jordon associated with Woods Hole Oceanographic. They would plow back and forth with Sonar, visual and metal detectors. Sonar is only
good to about four meters in the sand. Metal detectors would pick up any under seabed metal. Can you dig up everything?

The Gunsten Hall is one of America’s naval ships usually transporting marines and equipment. After unloading the marines the skipper volunteered the ship for another mission. Some number of ‘Platoons’, but seven in each, of trained dolphins were scouting the bottom. More
trainers were called in as they had a problem with “dolphin boredom”. There is no adequate defense.

This threat needs enough exposure to effect the group mind. A demonstration off the coast would be enough exposure. This is a community of sea knowledge. Perhaps Camden can devise a test. Why not? We are already betting lives.

This danger is just over the ability of a terrorist group, but well within reach of a Third World nation. Knox County should know. The Crown never expected that George Washington’s General Henry Knox would drag cannon through the snow from upstate New York with 400 oxen all the
way to Boston to blast the Redcoats to hell. You bet.

Why would that even fucking matter, you think they are any less advanced that Russian anti-ship missiles.

[link to www.wired.com]
The U.S. Navy can’t stop China’s most sophisticated anti-ship missile — and won’t even start testing a defense until 2014.

"Most anti-ship cruise missiles fly below the speed of sound and on a straight path, making them easier to track and target," notes Bloomberg News‘ Tony Capaccio. Not China’s so-called "Sizzler" missile, already aboard eight Kilo-class submarines.

The Sizzler starts at subsonic speeds. Within 10 nautical miles of its target, a rocket-propelled warhead separates and accelerates to three times the speed of sound, flying no more than 10 meters (33 feet) above sea level. On final approach, the missile ‘has the potential to perform very high defensive maneuvers,’ including sharp-angled dodges, the Office of Naval Intelligence said in a manual on worldwide maritime threats.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33027468


First of all Mr 50 cent Party member [link to www.newstatesman.com]

Unless America was at war with China it would not contemplate destroying a Chinese missile test against a Chinese satellite. Next time invite America to the party and you will see how easy it is to defeat your missiles.

Second China did not declare war with America when they stormed through Korea during the Korean war and any future war will be nothing like Korea unless you want to fight a new war like you fought WWII. - Throw more people at the enemy than they have bullets.

As far as knocking out space targets. You knocked out your own satellite that is hardly an achievement. its about as hard as finding you way home after a party.

I say we should:

1) Cut China off the Internet so we eliminate cyber theft.
2) We apply a 50% import tax on all Chinese goods.

End of Problem and End of Discussion about the problem.

If China had the power to do anything right now they would use it - so they don't have the power. Some Chinese guy would not be arrested for trying to illegally purchase composites used to make 5-Gen fighters if China's jets were as good as America.

Learn the hard way or don't learn at all. It makes no difference China full on its own propaganda will shoot itself in the foot and be relegated to the Third World country it is.
