China's new mystery boom 11 that shocked the world

Rumor that China is developing a new generation of strategic bombers, may be named as H-11. Abroad "global safety net", 2005 Russia refused to sell strategic bombers, H-11 bomber project started. However, after 2011, the news in this regard is completely interrupted, may project has stopped. But in 2006, the news in this regard up.

China H-nine Western said, according to very similar to the concept of American B-01S machine on the design of a stealth. The view from the H-6K improved amplitude and principles, this rumor seems credible. In the author's view, the H-6K's improvement only as a transitional model to meet current military needs, which is why the main improvements not related to the aerodynamic layout.

Nuclear forces as the Trinity, the special role and status of strategic bombers, also a political power indispensable political means. Especially in the international political arena play an increasing impact on the rapid economic growth of energy demand increase inevitable friction with other countries in some respects growing number.

Have strategic bombers, peaceful environment is a very powerful strategic deterrent force, the role can not be underestimated; war environment is indispensable factor in defeating the enemy. China curb hegemonic expansion big country as a representative of the Third World, comprehensive strength, growing influence.

International relative political stability after the collapse of the Soviet Union caused an illusion: the end of the US-Soviet confrontation, the crisis seems to have ended. But the fact is that more intensified to consolidate and strengthen its old hegemony, more defiance of international law. Since Bush took office, the United States hegemony awareness is also growing strongly, "11-11 event after the international environment has become more sinister. China and the United States in the 1980s was once very close, but hostile awareness and activities of the U.S. has never relaxed. U.S. bombing of the Chinese Embassy in Yugoslavia, is to test the reaction of China. China as a big country to safeguard the interests of the Third World will never and the United States to come together, the United States knows this, so do not give up any opportunity to contain China.

Understanding of China's strategic bombers, but also the understanding of the future of Sino-US relations.

The United States not only interfere with China's reunification cause, and continue to strengthen alliance relations with Japan, to win over Taiwan's accession to the TMD (Theater Missile Defense Initiative). In the United States of backing embolden, Japan, in recent years more blatantly defense defense pointer to China as a threat to the region, with China as an enemy; the economy constantly competing for resources with China, claiming that its interests lie in the East China Sea. Other US-led anti-China forces tried to contain China's development through a variety of means, and this trend is more and more obvious.

The most realistic, the most pressing is the Taiwan issue, Chen Shui-bian resulting in mid-tense situation in the Taiwan Strait, the purpose of using the Taiwan issue to contain China will never give up, did not relax, and it never will cede Taiwan pawn. Maintain the unity and territorial integrity of the country, there must be a strong military force. "Trinity" nuclear forces, strategic bombers deficiencies, severely restricted deterrent to hostile countries and regions.

Since the 1970s, China has been seeking to develop strategic bombers, but has not been technical breakthroughs, such as the H the 6I and H 8 strategic bombers. To the technical level of China at that time, in almost all aspects of the strategic bombers are very short. After nearly 30 years of technology accumulation, China today has the ability to design and development of strategic bombers. Strategic bomber in service from design to combat effectiveness, need a very long process.

Especially in this regard also lack experience in developing, from electronic equipment to the engine had to start from scratch, a part of the problem is not solved it could result in the delay of the entire project. On the other hand, China is also the lack of experience of the use of strategic bombers, tactical techniques training, coordination, logistics support, maintenance, etc.. I think the one hand, the H-6K's developed as a transitional models meet the needs of the current strategic situation, the technical and theoretical research on the other hand is a new generation of strategic bombers.

Since the 50 years since the advent of the jet strategic bomber, and its development has gone through three distinct phases:

The first phase of the service in the 1960s and 1970s the Soviet Crimea-4 bomber, three V bombers ("Victory", "Vulcan", "warrior"), the U.S. B-47, B-52. This period, based on the jet-powered bomber to replace the propeller power Bomber, the first solution for problems. The former Soviet jet engine technology is not yet clearance Mia -4 bomber voyage to reach the design requirements, air refueling retired soon changed its strategic bombing missions mainly served by the the propeller power of Figure -115. Particular is and Figure -115 propeller power, but its speed the contemporary jet bomber speed is almost the same. Figure -115 can use to this day, with the success of the NK-12 turboprop.

Supersonic than subsonic has more advantages no doubt in the strategic and tactical use, can make the bombers quickly reach the target, can reduce the chance of being intercepted and attacked rely on speed, penetration ability has been greatly enhanced. As the rapid development of the jet engine, the aircraft design also broke some technical bottlenecks. Soon, the United States and the Soviet Union started to develop a supersonic strategic bombers appear in the subsonic bomber. Supersonic bomber of this period are just a flash in the pan, the reason for the speed and range strategic bombers can not solve the contradiction supersonic design: To achieve supersonic will not be able to meet the requirements of the voyage, to achieve the requirements of the voyage Can not supersonic. American B-58 on the existence of this problem, and we had to carry a very large fuel tank in the machine abdomen limited tactical use.

The second stage is the 1980s. Supersonic strategic bombers due to a variable-geometry wing design to solve the contradiction of speed and range, at this stage on behalf of the U.S. B-1B and the Soviet Union Figure -160,-22M. The emergence of a supersonic strategic bomber makes strategic bombers penetration ability greatly enhanced strike capabilities have been increased.

The third stage is the emergence of the end of the last century, stealth strategic bombers. In the 1980s, the ATA project the ATF and Navy of the United States Air Force for the first time the stealth concept applied to the design of combat aircraft. Stealth or low observability can reduce the chance of discovery and attack combat aircraft, can be reached on the strategic and operational surprise, and a significant increase in viability. The emergence of stealth technology has opened up a whole new technology, changing the mode of combat fighters, attack aircraft and bombers, to usher in a new era of combat aircraft. Currently, stealth bombers only U.S. B-2 A, reported radar cross section (RCS) is only O. 3 square meters, the RCs value of the B-52, 100 square meters.
