Is China's Xian H-20 bomber so powerful as it should be?

    

Is China's Xian H-20 bomber so powerful as it should be?

If the point of view to estimate the abilities of that bomber, it might base the same technology that is in use of B-2 Spirit. Is the technology, what is in use in those bombers hacked? Are there radars or other systems that can track the target by using some kind of anti-stealth methodology? Stealth aircraft are the most lethal military machines in the world, but the fact is that those systems are the entirety.

The stealth bombers can operate with free-fall bombs but the most used weapons are smart, precision-guided stand-off weapons like JDAM-type weapons, and also stealth cruise missiles, which are giving the stealth bombers very high accuracy and ability to destroy the different type of targets. Those weapons might have conventional or nuclear warheads. The old-fashion salvo bombing causes that the aircraft is easier to locate, and then the missiles would aim to that point. The modern anti-aircraft missiles have an image-homing system, which would find the target by using the camera image.

This thing means that stealth bombers must not go near the target itself and it can give minimum radar echo by falling small-size bombs and other weapons. In this case, the size of the bomb is small, if we compare it with the size of the stealth bomber itself. But those weapons require stealth technology and the other thing is that the thing, that makes those weapons effective is the high accuracy. If those weapons have low accuracy, the use of nuclear warheads will be attractive. The low accuracy means that the use of nuclear weapons will be lower because the conventional strike capacity is not enough in those cases, where the navigation and positioning satellites signal is cut by using some kind of electronic countermeasures.

Precision-guided weapons require navigation satellites or some other methods to point the target. And the question is does China this kind of technology, and how accurate those targeting satellites are? China's new hypersonic missiles are extremely lethal if they can reach the target. China can attack against fixed targets by using pre-targeted satellite-guided bombs and missiles. The coordinates of the target can set to the inertial navigation system of those aircraft if the pointing signal would cut, and that thing means that the accuracy of those bombs would be not so high, that they can harm hardened targets by using conventional warheads.

But the fact is that the H-20 is a lethal machine. Even if technology, what is used in it would be old-fashion. The stealth capacity of that bomber gives it a more powerful strike capacity than the H-6 bombers, which are copies of the 1950s Soviet Tu-16 "Bagler" bombers, which are basing old-fashion technology. The H-20 is a big advantage for the People's Liberation Army. And that would increase its strike capacity, but the question is how big this threat is?

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like.

.     The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like. Above is the image of the nano-submarine. There is introduced an idea, that this kind of system would equip with living neurons, which makes it like some kind of artificial bug or mosquito. The idea is that the robot can take the nutrient by using the robot tube, which acts like a proboscis. The neurons can get nutrients and the rest of the machine can use small fuel cells or the energy to that system can deliver by using the radio waves. Futurologists are thinking about the ideas, what the hybridization of the neurons and machine would look like? Could the hyper-technical civilization look like the group of midget submarines? Those submarines might take nutrients for the neurons, what is living in them. The purpose of the midget submarines, which might be size less than a couple of millimeters would maximize the survivability of the neurons. One of the most intere...
