Chinese military scientists have announced a major breakthrough in laser weapon technology, claiming they have developed a new cooling system that allows high-energy lasers to operate “infinitely” without any build-up of waste heat.
According to scientists at the National University of Defence Technology, in Changsha, Hunan province, the new cooling system completely eliminates the harmful heat that is generated during the operation of high-energy lasers. The issue has been a major technical challenge for laser weapon development.
With the new technology, weapons can now generate laser beams for as long as they want, without any interruption or degradation in performance.
*****************************
Chinese military scientists have achieved a significant breakthrough in the development of laser weapons. They have discovered a new method for cooling these weapons, enabling continuous firing of laser beams without interruption. This advancement makes laser weapons much more viable for utilization in actual combat scenarios.
The People’s Republic of China is actively advancing laser weaponry with the aim of neutralizing missiles, drones, and fighter jets, potentially replacing existing air defense systems. The United States also has ongoing programs dedicated to developing combat lasers. However, numerous initiatives have been halted due to challenges related to cooling mechanisms, size constraints, and the weight of the lasers.
Nonetheless, recent Chinese innovations appear to address some of these challenges. China has already unveiled a prototype of the next-generation aircraft carrier, featuring electromagnetic weaponry and laser installations. This promising “super-ship” theoretically has the potential to replace an entire fleet of conventional vessels. China has already surpassed the United States in terms of warship quantities. Moreover, China recently conducted a successful simulation of a hypersonic attack against American aircraft carriers.
China’s technological progress is causing significant concern in Washington. The White House has declared a state of “emergency” due to China’s growing military and intelligence advancements. President Biden has enacted measures prohibiting Wall Street from investing in Chinese companies involved in microelectronics, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing.
The White House is actively attempting to slow down China’s development to maintain a technological lead of 1-2 generations. However, the People’s Republic of China is already ahead in 37 out of 44 critical technological sectors, possesses twice as many registered patents as the U.S., and, for the first time, has surpassed America in terms of the most cited scientific publications. Ongoing military advancements, particularly in hypersonic technology and lasers, indicate that the United States is finding it increasingly challenging to keep pace with China in the ongoing arms race.
Or, this tech will be used by the psycho global predators/parasites in the soon upcoming We’re Being Invade/Threatened By Outer Space Aliens So We NEED A One World Gubmint Psyop-TM…
Hmm… Which will happen first – the We’re Being Invaded/Threatened By China And/Or Russia So World War III Is Utterly Unavoidable Psyop-TM or the other???
China has 4x the population of the U.S. Moreover, the Chinese are hard-working, disciplined people. The U.S. will be unable to keep pace with China economically or militarily. The U.S. unipolar hegemony is nearly over.
