China and Russia boost hypersonic technology.

The Chinese hypersonic jet makes a great advance in flight and it will revolutionize commercial- and military operations. The Feitian 2 drone is a great advance for hypersonic missiles and aviation technology. That drone launched from a spaceport using a regular rocket and that system gives more information about how to solve problems that the hypersonic systems face when they travel across the atmosphere. Those systems are ultimate tools for use against ships and hardened targets. The Mach 10 capable missile that flies at quite a low altitude is a hard target for defense. Those systems can use stealth technology and those smooth shapes that the hypersonic systems need are suitable for stealth systems. 

The hypersonic cruise missile can jump out of the atmosphere and then dive back. That allows them to ignite scramjet engines. If those hypersonic missiles are quite small, they can be installed on the ballistic missile along with regular warheads. So in that kind of system, the hypersonic missile can strike with regular warheads. The thing is that the hypersonic systems can also use regular rocket engines. The thing that makes them dangerous is this. They create very strong pressure cones. And that cone can also cause damage. The kinetic energy system doesn’t require a warhead at all. When a 1000 kg vehicle hits a target with speed Mach 10 it causes a very strong impact.

The real strike capacity of the Oreshnik missile depends on the warheads. If those warheads are designed to act as hypersonic gliders, HGS or that system carries scramjet-driven cruise missiles that can be very powerful weapons. Those HGS systems can look a little bit like spearheads. And that gives them the smooth flight profile that allows those systems to strike with variable angles. 

For comparison, the GAU-8 Avenger cannon’s uranium ammunition hits targets with a speed of Mach 1,5 and that is enough to destroy the main battle tank. So what if the Mach 10 drone is equipped with GAU-8? The normal muzzle velocity for that ammunition is 1,013 m/s. And the aircraft's speed increases at the same rate as the aircraft travels.  When that ammunition takes Mach 10 speed with it that rises the muzzle velocity to a level that is many times higher than if it is connected to an aircraft that travels at 600 km/h That thing gives extremely powerful impact energy to that ammunition. So what happens if Mach 10 aircraft open fire with GAU-8 against the city? 

The Russian researchers are working with a new Mach 10 missile called “Oreshnik”. The weapon is classified as an IRBM (Intermediate range ballistic missile. That thing makes them easier to install on mobile launchers than the strategic missiles. The missile itself finds targets independently. There is also the possibility of creating hypersonic cruise missiles or hypersonic gliders for the larger missiles. 

Those missiles can destroy ships and ground targets from a great distance. Strategic anti-ship missiles that can attack targets from thousands of kilometers are frightening tools. Those systems are following the Russian doctrine where political security is in the primary role. Hypersonic missiles that lay in silos or mobile launchers are always under the observation of the security troops. The long-range anti-ship missiles can threaten NATO surface battle units and convoys. Basically, the RS-28 (Sarmat) or older RS-36 (SS-18 “Satan”) can carry those missiles against the fleet and other targets like command centers.

The user determines the purpose of lasers and rockets.



"Illustration of China's groundbreaking portable laser weapon operating in extreme temperatures. Image generated by AI." (Sustainability Times, “China Stuns the World Again”: New 2.47kW Portable Laser Works in Arctic Cold and Blistering Saharan Heat)

New Chinese laser weapons can operate from arctic cold to Sahara heat. The portable 2,47 kW laser system can be used against vehicles, robots, and other military personnel. The same system can also be used to cut electric wires and cut steelworks. And that is the true advance in laser weapon development. The laser weapon can use electric systems to create light. But it is also possible to use things like acetylene lamps for that purpose. The laser weapon can also use the laser-LEDs. That pumps energy to laser rays that travel between them. 

That kind of system allows developers to make new types of weapons. Or weaponized applications. The laser weapon can operate also at orbital, where even small laser weapons can cause damage to satellites and space suits.

Another interesting thing is that the Chinese created a new HQ-29 missile system that can be used in anti-ballistic missile, ABM, and anti-satellite, ASAT roles. Those missiles tell that China is prepared for space warfare. But the fact is that all rockets that can carry satellites or any payload to orbiter can operate as space weapons. The critical thing is the miniature satellites that can shoot even hundreds in one launch.

Heavy booster rockets can transport those miniature satellites to orbit. And when command centers give orders, those satellites will impact other satellites. Miniature satellites that use advanced AI can also dive against incoming ASAT weapons. Those satellites can operate in other missions, and when time is up they can begin their attack procedures. 




"Illustration of a solar-powered drone with a wingspan larger than a Boeing 747 designed for month-long flights. Image generated by AI." (Sustainability Times, “We Built This to Fly Forever”: Engineers Unveil Solar Drone With 224-Foot Wingspan Capable of Month-Long Flights)

The miniature satellite can recognize the target using similar technology that Javelin missiles use. The satellite recognizes its target by using the image. And if those systems are shot to high-orbiter using the heavy booster, they can attack against their targets from the higher altitudes. There is an attack variant where the small satellite pulls the large-size trawl that it uses to put satellites following it. And then that satellite just dives into the atmosphere, pulling the target satellite behind it. 

Things like solar-powered aircraft that can rise about 30 km high can transport small airborne launching vehicles to the edge of space. Then those small satellite carriers like Pegasus can transport satellites to the low earth orbiter. The Pegasus-type launching vehicles can also transport ASAT and ABM weapons. After launch the unmanned launching aircraft can return home. The new solar-powered aircraft whose wingspan is the same as Helios can make this thing. The problem with Helios was that its wings were not stiff enough. So that caused a crash. The wingspan of that new system is the same as the C-5 Galaxy. And it should rise at least 29 km altitude.

Light has been teleported.



That is the thing where electromagnetic wormholes are needed. In photonic data transportation, the system loads information as wave movement in photons. The photon is like a donut. And there is a possibility to store data in its shell. When a laser ray travels through or around a photon it can copy that wave movement in it.  That kind of data transmission is safe and secure. But those photons are sensitive to outcoming quantum fields. 

What does light teleportation mean? The answer is interesting. When a particle is teleported it will not turn older. Other ways we can say that when an object is teleported it keeps its form and information in its original form. Light teleportation means that the system can transport photons where the system stores data from one point to another place. When we think about teleportation through superposition and entanglement the problem is that the system must protect those energy strings that pull information to the receiving part of that particle combination. 

The hollow laser ray or some other electromagnetic system can deny outcoming effects and disturb data, or information. When the system makes the superposition and entanglement the recessive particle pulls information from the transmitting particle. The problem is that the outcoming radiation can destroy that string. The problem is that those photons are superpositioned and entangled in different energy levels. The laser system can transmit information on the transmitting side of the particles. And then the system must transport energy out from the receiving side. That keeps the transmitting side at a higher energy level than the receiving. 

Suppose researchers can someday create extremely long-distance light teleportation that provides secure data transportation tools. If the system can make the long-distance electromagnetic wormhole through the atmosphere that gives the possibility to send laser beams or single photons through the fog and dust without disturbing their movement. 

When we think about light teleportation we face one interesting phenomenon. The energy level in the light that traveled through the wormhole didn’t decrease. And that means the teleportation gives more power to laser beams. They will not reflect or lose their energy in the scattering effect. And this makes those systems very interesting. The same systems can help transmit high-power laser impulses through the air without causing scattering phenomena.

New transformers and iron-man robots can be revolutionized.



There are questions about things like can the AI really think? Or does it only mimic some actions? There is a method to teach the computer called macro learning. When a robot or computer faces some situation for the first time the programmer creates a macro or action for that thing. Even if a robot only mimics humans, that robot can follow the controller’s instructions and movements for the first time. Then that robot compares those situations where those things are given to things that it faces. If the situation matches with the situation where the action is connected that activates the action. Or macro. The name: “macro-based programming” means that the programmer creates actions for robots. And then connects that action, or macro to the event. 

The new transformer and Iron Man robots are tools that can change robotics. Those tools are equipped with abilities that allow them to change their shape. Or those robots can fly to places like roofs. That thing makes them good operators for rescue, intelligence, and other types of missions. The man-shaped robot can operate window washers for skyscrapers, or they can pick up interesting things from the ground or roofs. The robot is equipped with jets, but it's possible to use blowers that make them quiet. The new AI-based tools can make those robots more self-learning than we ever imagined. 





Those blowers make it possible for the robot to operate underwater. And that is the thing that makes Iron Man robots interesting tools for deep-sea operations. The man-shaped robot can operate with the same tools as humans. And those robots can transfer themselves from one airplane to another. Or they can jump onto the roofs of aircraft. They might carry versatile sensors. Like seismic microphones in their feet. Those systems allow those robots to hear voices through the roofs. That kind of robot can carry humans out from burning houses. Only imagination limits those systems' capacities.

The ability to transform vehicles from cars to something that flies is an interesting thing. The ability to travel on highways or on the ground is something that makes those systems unseen. That ability allows those systems to move in places where flying machines cannot go. The ability to transform cars into things like quadcopters is the thing that brings interesting ideas. There are projects whose goal is cheap hybrid vehicles that can be called “flying cars”. That means an aerial vehicle whose price is the same as some personal vehicle. 

Those vehicles can move on the road or they can rise airborne. Those systems can be the thing that forces us to re-estimate our security. When we think about burglaries those systems can transport operators to the roof. But those systems can deliver things like drones. They can operate autonomously. The problem is that new anti-tank and other weapons are easy to put into those systems. Many flying cars can reach 400-600 km/h which is faster than any regular helicopter. That means those “flying cars” can transport things like AA missiles. 

New nuclear batteries can work as powerhouses for those robots. They can operate for even years or their operational time can be unlimited. This means those robots can operate on other planets and in their atmosphere.

The new Mach 5 hypersonic aircraft stuns the world.


The new space programs require trusted low-cost, easily operated launching systems like space planes. The term space plane means a space shuttle that can operate from regular runways. Hypersonic technology can open the road to that kind of space systems. This type of shuttle can operate in the atmosphere and orbitals. These are key elements for building large-scale space projects. They can also revolutionize warfare and transportation. Without those space planes, things like nuclear rockets will be unable, or very hard to produce. The miniature nuclear reactor allows a nuclear-powered space plane to operate in interplanetary space. And that opens the road to the entire solar system. 


There is a possibility to replace the combustion in the ramjet and scramjet engines using electric arcs or some other system that heats the air.  The main problem with those electromagnetic ramjet engines is that they need electricity from somewhere that they can heat and expand the air that they pull in the engine. The system can use electric arcs, microwaves, or lasers to pull gas in the engine. 

And one of the systems that can create the wanted electricity is the small nuclear reactor. That kind of system tested in the Ling-Temco-Vought was the company whose mission was to create the Supersonic Low altitude missile SLAM. The main thing was that the SLAM or “Project Pluto” used nuclear reactors for heating air. The main system used was the nuclear-powered ramjet system that breathed air from the atmosphere. And then the nuclear reactor warmed that air. That air cooled the reactor’s shell and denied its overheating. 

Virtually that system can have unlimited range and operational time. The problem was the radioactive fallout. The SLAM could be more capable if it could have an isolated reactor system that could give electricity to the electric ramjet systems. In those systems electromagnetic systems create heat that expands the air. Suppose SLAM would have an internal propellant tank that could also operate in the orbital trajectory. When air turns too thin the system starts to use internal propellant. Maybe that kind of nuclear-powered shuttle will be a reality someday. 


Above: SLAM (Project Pluto)

The air-breathing rockets are the new things. In the atmosphere, the system can use the compressor that is at the side of the engine. When the system uses atmospheric rocket mode that system can inject from the side of the engine. When the system goes out from the atmosphere it transfers to use internal oxygen. That kind of system can also be connected to ramjet engines. At slow speed, the system uses the iris that closes the air intake. That aircraft runs into the air using rockets. When the system’s speed is about Mach 1 the iris will open and then the ramjet ignites. When the system is at the edge of space, it closes the air intake and transfers to use internal oxygen. 


A cutaway diagram of an X-51A’s subsystems packaging. (SIPRI, A matter of speed? Understanding hypersonic missile systems)

Normally those hypersonic systems use the ramjet or scramjet as engine solutions. The hypersonic missiles path the way to new hypersonic systems and space planes. If those systems can breathe oxygen from the atmosphere that decreases the need for internal oxygen. And it increases the payload. 

Hypersonic technology stuns the world. Hypersonic missiles and cruise missiles are turning new types of systems into reality. If the aircraft can fly at hypersonic speed by using air-breathing engines in the atmosphere and it has a capacity switch into rocket engines that system can fly in both orbital and atmosphere. The hypersonic aircraft can also have stealth capacity because stealth planes' soft curves are aerodynamically good things. Some of those hypersonic systems can have small tracks on their layers. Those tracks' mission is to drive air in the desired direction. The thing is that the new types of plasma systems can also decrease friction. 

Basically, lasers are tools that can be used to ionize gas at the front of the wings and engines. Another way is to use some other types of electromagnetic radiation like a maser technology. That radiation shoots electrons away from the atom's orbital and turns those atoms into ions. 

The idea is that there is a system that ionizes air around the aircraft. Then the electric system can simply push those ions away from the aircraft’s body. That decreases friction. And the same systems can also turn the aircraft invisible to radars. The ion system can also pull air into the engine where electromagnetic systems can heat it. Ion technology allows the use of more radical and effective systems than traditional ramjets and scramjets. 

The accelerator systems can be based on the Gauss track. The electromagnetic acceleration system accelerates ions over and below the wing. That thing causes the airflow that increases buoyancy. There is also a possibility that the magnet pushes air away from the front of the aircraft, And that creates low pressure that pulls it forward. This thing can be the new step for quiet hypersonic systems.

Artificial intelligence and spam filters make BCI more versatile.



The problem with the brain-computer interface, BCI is similar to speech command applications. But thoughts are not so easy to control as speech. There is a possibility that the person looks at the camera and uses gestures when the command starts. The gesture can be some cup that the user shows to the computer that the work starts. And the other gesture can be something like a spoon. That the computer knows the commands end. Those things can be finger marks and they could be determined before the speech command sessions. 

So the person shows the mark to the web camera and writes gesture 1 and then the system asks for gesture 2. The system must also recognize the voice of the speaker so that things that some other person says will not disturb the computer. The gesture allows a person to discuss and talk in the room. Voice recognition allows computers to filter non-necessary and useless things from the text that the computer gets. Then the grammar check program can change the text that the speech-to-text application makes into literal text. After that, the system dumps that text to the application and turns it into commands. 

The AI requires spam filters in the training period. The spam filter removes the white noise or so-called non-useful information. The spam filters can also adapt to the brain-computer interfaces, BCIs. Those AI-based systems can remove so-called white noise from neural tracks. And that makes it easier for the BCI to separate information that is purposely delivered to it from thoughts that are not meant for commands.

The person must not think anything else, than commands what that system should follow or complete. If a person thinks about something else, that can cause serious problems. The biggest problem with the BCI is the user. The AI can translate EEG curves into actions. But the problem is if a person starts suddenly thinking about something else. 

One thing that can make the BCI more effective is that a person must move things like fingers before giving orders to the system. But the problem is how to control thoughts at that point. But there is a possibility that very flat microchips will be put below the skull. And the antenna or contact point is on the skull where systems can download information and communicate with brains and computers. 

The system can also load those systems' batteries wirelessly. If those microchips can be installed under the skin on the skull, they are far easier to install than regular brain implants. The surgeon must just find the right places and then put those microchips under the skin. The bone mass will glue those microchips on the right points on the skull. BCI microchips can communicate with the internet through mobile telephones. Or they can use the computer’s bluetooth connections. 

But things like biological power sources like electricity-producing cells can also feed those systems' needs for electricity. The fact is that the biotechnology-like ability to create cloned neural tracks makes it possible to restore the ability to move to more people. And those cloned neural tracks can also make it possible for the microchip to communicate with living neurons through the skin. Those neurons that form artificial neural tracks could be connected to the microchip that is under the skin and then the sensor. That is in a hat or helmet communicates with that microchip. 

The next-generation BCI systems might not need surgery. The goal, or guiding light should be that the system uses sensors that are as easy to wear as hats. The problem is that those hats must position those sensors in the right positions. 

The fact is that the system called Magnetoencephalography, MEG can read data from the brain shell. The ability to connect interactive microchips to things like fingers should be easier than implanting them into brains. Those systems can open the neuro-implants and open neuroports to other systems more versatile than using traditional brain implants.

The private company wants to use retired F-4 Phantom II fighters as satellite carrier launchers.



Above: AI-created image where F-4 shoots miniature satellites. 


The private company called Starfighters International plans to use retired F-4 Phantom II fighters as miniature satellite carrier launchers. Today that company operates with antique F-104 fighters. But the F-4 could give it a new boost. 

Those jet fighters can fly near the edge of space and release the satellite-carrier rocket. The idea is taken from the USAF ASM-135 ASAT weapon. F-15 takes to the edge of the atmosphere. There is also the possibility that the ASAT can be mounted to retired SR-71 and the next-generation SR-72 systems. That gives those systems the ultimate capacity to launch the ASAT weapons against the suspected orbital space weapons. If those weapons are in orbit, that requires ultra-fast reactions. 

In those missions, Phantoms can use underwing auxiliary rockets that allow them to rise higher. There is also the possibility of improving those aircraft afterburners or turbines so that they can have a front iris that denies the air impulse to the front. 

Then the system will inject oxygen from underwing tanks to those rocket turbines. The system can maneuver using flaps that can change the rocket's exhaust gas direction. In wild visions, those turbine rockets can also have an iris in the back. When those engines send thrust to the front. That turns them into a brake engine. 

The point is that the same systems that shoot miniature satellites can also shoot ASAT(Ati-Satellite) weapons against their targets. Satellite carrier aircraft don't need stealth technology. The aircraft can operate as a manned remote-, or AI-controlled unmanned system. If the plane has no pressurized cabin, it can fly at higher altitudes. 




F-15 launches ASAT. 


The problems with private space companies are also concerning. The major problem is that those companies allow access to space for private actors; that is not a bad thing. The problem is the actors who operate behind those private contractors and companies. Things like Chinese, Russian, or North Korean intelligence can also give financial investments to those companies. 

The situation is similar to the cases, where the CIA operated through the  "Air America"  and "United Fruit" corporations and delivered weapons to Anti-communist actors in Burma and Laos during the Vietnam War and South- and Middle America, non-governmental alliances. 

We know that people like Russian and North Korean intelligence officials can take a model from the CIA. And they can also establish cover-up corporations for their operations. They can make that thing through oligarchs and then they can hire Western engineers to make rockets and other kinds of things for them. Those actors can play South Korean businessmen. And there is the possibility that hired developers don't know who is behind those investors. 

All orbital rockets offer the possibility to launch orbital nuclear weapons to orbital trajectories. Those systems can be detonated on low orbital and they can destroy multiple satellites. Or those systems can also dive into the atmosphere and detonate entire cities. Space systems can also carry and deliver drone swarms to target areas. And that is one of the biggest threats. 

The extensions for that kind of thing can be the companies are space mercenaries. There North Korea and other actors will develop technology that can cause high risk for all kinds of security. In the worst scenarios, the hostile actors can shoot even nuclear missiles from those private corporation's sites. In those scenarios, the launch site that is located on some remote island will be taken by hostile forces. Then those forces will transport nuclear weapons to that site and then shoot those weapons against their targets.
