Hypersonic advantage of Russia over the USA compared with the launch of the first Earth satellite

84

The United States is forced to actively engage in the development of its own hypersonic weapons, as Russia's successes in this area have already caused changes in the space in which hostilities are being conducted. This opinion was expressed by Acting Secretary of the American Navy Thomas Modley in a note addressed to the troops of this kind of troops.

The situation resembles the situation in the middle of the 20th century, when the USSR launched the first Earth satellite. Then the Americans also had to urgently catch up.



Today, to narrow the gap, the US Department of Defense will begin testing the first prototypes in the field of hypersound already in 2020. It will be very difficult to catch up with Russia, since Russian-made Zircon hypersonic missiles will enter the army within the next few years.

Modley called on the Pentagon to take Russian supremacy in hypersound seriously:

In fact, the possible ways of using hypersonic technologies have already changed the space of warfare, just as it was with nuclear technology in the last century. Therefore we, when it comes to hypersonic weapons, must announce the general command "Forward!"

        However, it should be noted that the "Zircon" has not yet been adopted for service, it will be possible to talk about something serious only when the first carrier with these missiles appears. It would be nice to try a couple of rockets on the barmaley.

                Nothing interferes, especially if it is not hypersonic suitable for the target - the plasma then does not form when interacting with the atmosphere and, therefore, radio waves are not shielded.

            Tank OBPS also, in fact, accelerates to hypersound, but, for some reason, "does not count." Some SAM models too (both ours and theirs).

            Somehow, by tradition, truly hypersonic products are considered to be products capable of maintaining a specified speed for a long time, and not just accelerating and flying by inertia. For "them" such a product is the X-51 (flew the 5M back in 2010), we have a hypothetical "Zircon" (flew or not - it is not known for sure).

              ... it is, it is not ... all these fabrications are from the evil one. In fact, any object moving with hypersonic speed is hypersonic. From the point of view of physics in the first place. And you can call him anything you like.

                  You can say whatever you want. But let's be honest: if it's green, croaks and lives in a swamp - it's a frog, not a Belarus tractor)) It was written above about BOPS: BOPS flies at a speed of 5-6M. And the railgun blank flies at a speed of 6M. They are distinguished only by the physics of the acceleration process. Everything else is similar. But at the same time, nobody calls BOPS a hypersonic weapon, unlike a railgun. Which is often called a hypersonic electromagnetic weapon.
                  The same is with the concept of "supersonic". The same mishmash of speculation

                Unspoken :) "Hypersonic weapons" is, in fact, a more marketing term, a kind of conditional characteristic designed to prove that A is better than B. If you approach the issue strictly, the Germans still had hypersonic weapons in World War II: they were there with conical experiments were set up with trunks. If less strictly, then everyone in this category is trying to shove what he has and does not have a competitor. Marketing of pure water (like with 5th generation fighters, nanotechnology, and so on).

      Because the demonstration of "the coolest weapons" in only dull cartoons is somehow unconvincing. Armament will be intimidating if it:
      1. Has the characteristics confirmed by tests.
      2. Serially produced and available in the troops in a sufficiently large number and on a sufficiently large number of carriers.

    And why are they surprised, the United States has been in the technological pit for a long time. And smart people there understand this well.

    YOU even call one successful over-project of the USA successfully executed for the last 2-3 decades.
    Developed a new tank to replace Abrache Obama closed the gap, for 35 years, the Boeing ran with Vairuner generally zilch. They could not make nuclear centrifuges for enrichment, they could not make mox fuel.
    Every U.S. aircraft carrier is even worse off, the Aviation, although numerous, but the old fleet will soon buy the F15X again, in general, all stealths failed both in technology and in cost. Where are the stripes successes, in what?

    The most for the United States, and their howl will be no worse than the tantrum arr. 1961 according to Gagarin, should happen by 2025 there should already be the first test samples of a nuclear plane in Russia, and by 2030 when they plan to build and a possible flight to the asteroid belt.
    In Russia, this program is moving by leaps and bounds, they also called it Jimo and also successfully cover it for the commonplace reason of US technological insolvency.

        You didn’t notice how this super-successful project collapses into a tube, and then this tube will proceed to a famous place of Uncle SAMA ..
        Straight from 2007 and Putin’s Munich speech and began to cover up.
        And what the Iranians do with attacks on the hegemonic bases is precisely an element of dominance, only whom is this a question.

        Where does Russia turn its cheeks, what is it expressed in?
        We took Crimea, made a base out of it, and sent the USA and the EU in a certain direction when they stood up for the integrity of the Banderastan.

            You have trash in your head. This is all that you listed demonstration actions. In no way do they work to maintain US hegemony.
            Lukashenko - stupidly bargaining, he is a great master in this ..

            All garbage .. Except SU24 and the ambassador to Turkey.
            And then, you yourself estimate that now 5 years after the downed plane, it’s happening with Turkey’s NATO ally.
            We are building nuclear power plants for them, and we made gas hubs of them, and they didn’t have a whirlpool about the American forces, and they buy C400 from us. Here is a clear weakening of US influence visible to the naked eye, even at this point.


            All that an adult in the USA has been able to do lately is to cancer Europe and impose sanctions on them for SP-2, which slowed down the development of the project. Moreover, I emphasize that the EU imposes sanctions on EU firms, and not on Gazprom.

    Dagger, an air-based ballistic missile only briefly reaching hypersonic speed

    But reaching the same - a couple of thousand kilometers passes in ten minutes, not for long, yes)))

    Well, it covers 2000 km in 30 minutes, at least. There was somehow a scheme in the network, the carrier aircraft passes the subsonic section in 8 minutes (125 km), the supersonic section in 15 minutes (575 km). Then the launch of the "Dagger", which flies 1300 km (9 minutes). A total of 2000 km and 32 minutes ...

    Quote: Gray Brother
    Nothing interferes, especially if it is not hypersonic suitable for the target - the plasma then does not form when interacting with the atmosphere and, therefore, radio waves are not shielded.

    You are right, Sergey, nothing prevents. But a supersonic target can be brought down by the same anti-aircraft missiles. Nothing bothers either.

    When hitting key NORAD targets, it is better to maneuver in order to for sure, and then to splash apart.

    There are much more NORAD facilities than can be maneuvering. 12 Vanguards will be deployed on the Sotk N UTTH. In the future, it will be possible to deploy 2-3 Vanguards on the Sarmat. How many "Sarmats" will be allocated for this? Most likely also 12, hardly 18. The result is 36-48 Vanguards (maximum 48-66). Some of these quantities will be knocked down. How many? Third? Or half? So NORAD may not be enough for all objects ...

    For "them" such a product is the X-51 (flew the 5M back in 2010), we have a hypothetical "Zircon" (flew or not - it is not known for sure).

    They still had the X-43, which flew EMNIP in 2000-2002 ...

    traditionally truly hypersonic

    what is the tradition? Who established it and to what extent can “tradition” be the basis for its definition?
    capable of maintaining a specified speed for a long time

    how long is it? half an hour, an hour, a day?
    ... it is, it is not ... all these fabrications are from the evil one. In fact, any object moving with hypersonic speed is hypersonic. From the point of view of physics in the first place. And you can call him anything you like.
    This issue has already been discussed more than once at VO.

    By what tradition? At least by analogy with supersonic weapons. We do not call a machine gun or machine gun a supersonic weapon, only because the bullet accelerates to supersonic speed. But the cruise missile, which not only accelerates to supersonic speed but also supports it thanks to the engine, we call supersonic weapons.
    Now everyone is "crazy" on the term "hypersonic weapon". Even now, two terms have appeared - "non-motorized hypersound" - this refers to ballistic missiles. and "motor hypersound" - this refers to cruise missiles, which in fact are hypersonic weapons capable of going hypersonic for some time, supporting it with their engine, and performing both lateral and vertical maneuvers. So they are essentially hypersonic weapons. But it is not yet in service.
    If we insist that such products as Avangard or Dagger are full-fledged hypersonic weapons, then why talk about the US lagging behind us for decades ??? They also have intercontinental missiles, and they tested gliding blocks under the Falcon program.
    If we consider ballistic missiles as hypersonic weapons, then we will have to consider as hypersonic weapons and artillery shells. And if we "cut off" artillery shells and consider only missiles, then the undisputed leader in the "hypersonic race" is .... Hitler's Germany. For the speed of "V-2" was at the end of OUT 2,3 km / s ...

    To kick the "striped" is not to feed us with bread. Let's remember all of them, all closed projects. True, sometimes we do not force ourselves to think about why certain projects were closed. The main thing is to make the Americans clumsy ...
    Well, let's take a look.
    Quote: EXPrompt

    Closed. But is this a failure? All countries have had similar, sometimes highly publicized projects that have been closed, often due to the high cost. Black Eagle "supertank of the future" announced? Announced. And where is he? The program is closed. The next "supertank of the future" was announced, called the T-95 - the project was closed. And as Shoigu said, it was closed because of the high cost.

    They tried to make nuclear centrifuges for enrichment,

    The US enrichment industry was built on the gaseous diffusion enrichment method as a simpler and more reliable method. And those 600-odd tons of weapons-grade uranium that they have were obtained using this method. The American company USEC has built a demonstration cascade of gas centrifuges (for commercial operation) in Picketon. The peculiarity of this plant was that very "high" centrifuges are used there, up to 10 meters. However, everything is new - everything is expensive. And the lack of funding (in 2009, the Department of Energy did not provide a loan guarantee of US $ 2 billion) led to the curtailment of the project. But the demonstration plant still exists and works. And they buy uranium for the stations abroad, all the more knowing perfectly well that no one will ever impose any sanctions against them. Why spend money when it's cheaper to buy?

    could not make mox fuel.

    Here I agree with you. Failed. Moreover, they do not have reactors for it yet.

    Quote: EXPrompt
    Every U.S. carrier is worse than being decommissioned,

    It should be understood that the head Nimitz was worse than the Kitty Hawks and Forrestols, and the current head Ford was worse than the Enterprise. Of course. There are as many as 8 reactors on the Enterprise that had to be reloaded every 10-15 years , and on "Ford" there is only one with a service life equal to that of the ship.
    Electromagnetic catapults are probably worse than steam. Yes, now they have problems including and with catapults, but if electromagnetic ones are worse, then what do the same Chinese work on similar ones?

    Quote: EXPrompt
    Although the aircraft are numerous, the fleet of old ones will soon be bought again by the F15X,

    And we probably have solid news? Mig-29 and Su-27 are almost the same age with the same F-15. We consider it quite natural to buy the SU-30 and SU-35, which in essence are a deep modernization of the SU-27, but at the same time we mock the staff that are going to buy the F-15X

    Quote: EXPrompt
    in general, all stealth failed both in technology and in cost.

    Definitely failing. Here are the dumb Americans. Okay, there F-117s made only 64, it was the first pancake, okay, 20 pieces were made by V-2. But these stupid ones made 195 F-22s and on 2.01.2020 491 F-35s (including a bunch for sale). And all the failures .. Or since we still do not have this machine in the series - does the concept itself and its implementation fail?
    If stealth itself is a failure, then why the hell have we been doing the same thing since the mid-80s. In 2000, the first flight of the MiG-1.44 took place, which was created as a counterweight to the American F-22. We were engaged in this aircraft starting from the protection of the preliminary project for 28 years, and in 2015 they closed it. Why are we doing SU-57 then? Or do you think that it will be the same price as the Su-27 ??? And the operational difficulties are not yet predictable. We have no experience of operating it in the army.

    By the way, you forgot to mention the US "Zumvolt". and for some reason did not mention the "failed" "Arleigh Burke" and "Virginia" ...

    Is it possible to grumble already? From the mid-90s to 2020 we will not bring the Angara into operation. There are already so many names of promising carriers that one can get confused in them. And "Don" and "Irtysh", and "Amur" and Soyuz-5 "and" Soyuz-7. "Are you planning a test flight of a nuclear planetary spacecraft already in 2025, the development of which is proceeding by leaps and bounds, in contrast to the failed American program? the same leaps and bounds as the construction of "Vostochny", serial production of "Armat" and Su-57 ???

    I personally care how we do it advantage will we use it at the moment? What does this time period give us? When will it appear in the troops? It must be understood that the striped ones have not yet recorded our hypersonic speeds on their radar screens. Therefore, while this news is considered a "fake". If they had this weapon, it would certainly have been demonstrated along our borders.
