radar is a kind of all-weather, all-day

day and night

not blocked by fog, clouds or rain

equipment for detecting distant targets

and has a certain ability to penetrate vegetation

often called "clairvoyance" and "clairaudience".

with the efforts of central enterprises

china's radar industry

experienced the leap from imitation to independent research and development

now

with the help of domestic radar deployment

we can see every corner of the world!

so how did china achieve this breakthrough?

speaking of radar

did you remember that

a white "big pot lid" that can spin around?

this is a "stereotype" of radar.

as physical versions of "clairvoyance" and "clairaudience"

radar is actually a whole radio positioning system

the "big pot lid" that most people talk about

just the antenna part of the radar

and now it is used in radar antennas in military and aerospace fields.

not just pot lid shaped

there are also spherical

like fish bones

there is also a flat antenna that looks like a giant fly swatter

that is to say

radar structure and function

determines the difference in appearance

the first domestically produced radar detected by "seeing"

do you remember?

in 2021

at the meeting celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the communist party of china

when the j-20 formation flew over tiananmen square

what a handsome and heroic man!

in addition to its top-notch weapon systems, the j-20

it is equipped withfire control radar

it is also the most advanced technology in the world

it has first-class stealth performance and super strong "smart eyes" blessing

once displayed, it caused a sensation internationally

our country's radar

have you always been this outstanding?

not really

the korean war

this is the first time our army has used radar.

we brought 129 radars to the battlefield.

helped the chinese people's volunteer army shoot down 330 enemy planes and damaged 95

but these radars are all repaired old equipment from abroad

we know

we must develop our own radar equipment

1953

the first domestically designed radar

existchina electronics technology group corporation 14th institutebirth

named314a medium-range warning radar

the radar has a maximum detection range of 125 kilometers.

this is also the first batch of domestically produced radars equipped by our troops.

do you know how 314 armor was designed?

it was "seen" bit by bit through a telescope.

my country's first independently designed and manufactured radar - 314a medium-range warning radar

because there was no radar reference map at the time

when we learned that the soviet union was on our northeastern border

after having an air defense warning radar

the then director of the 14th instituteshen zhongyigo and see it now

in the absence of proximity

observed with a telescope for a month

finally saw the antenna structure of the soviet radar

and drew a sketch

the design team relied on this sketch

developed the 314a medium-range warning radar

china's radar industry started to take off

late 1950s

the kuomintang flew the u-2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft

continuously harassing the mainland

september 1962

with the help ofmy country's first meter wave long-range warningradar 406

timely information provided

the missile unit successfully shot down a kuomintang u-2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft

my country's first meter-wave long-range warning radar - 406 meter-wave long-range warning radar

1964

chairman mao pointed out:

where there is a spear, there is always a shield. we need to get a small number of people to specialize in studying this problem. if five years doesn't work, then ten years. if ten years doesn't work, then fifteen years. we will eventually figure it out.

this is the famousproject 640

the spear mentioned here is the missile

shield is the anti-missile defense system

in project 640

my country has developed the first long-range early warning phased array radar

7010 radar

the test was successful in november 1977.

the construction of the national anti-missile early warning system has begun

how advanced is this phased array radar?

for example

january 1983

tass issued a global announcement

soviet cosmos-1402 nuclear-powered reconnaissance satellite

lost control on track

will crash soon

as soon as the news came out, the whole world panicked!

because this satellite is likely to have residual nuclear fuel

once it falls into a populated area

will cause catastrophic nuclear contamination

countries have called on countries with tracking and interception capabilities

timely forecast the satellite's fall time and location

to predict the landing point

first, we need to understand the orbit of the satellite

but the satellite is out of control.

"capturing" it is like finding a needle in a haystack!

my country's first long-range strategic early warning radar - 7010 radar

then

that ismy country's 7010 radar stands out

track goals and analyze data

finally, an accurate forecast

the final crash time and location of the satellite debris

this time an outstanding performance

the world has also turned its admiring eyes to china's radar

1978

china has decided to develop the world's most advanced

airborne pulse doppler (pd) radar

this pd fire control radar is very important for combat

without it

the target's echo signals are all submerged in the ground clutter

the fighter jets will not be able to conduct identification operations.

if you ask

what is the current level of chinese radar?

let me put it this way

with the help of domestic radar deployment

we can see every corner of the world!

on land

our land-based radars guard every corner of our country.

can adapt to all terrain environments such as plateaus, deserts, and mountains

on the sea

the chinese navy currently has

it is the world's most advanced active phased array radar

in the airspace

the kj-2000 early warning aircraft is equipped with

the first

large airborne solid-state active phased array early warning radar

in space

our precision measurement radar

forming a huge measurement and control network

launch, operation and recovery of spacecraft

implementing aerial tracking relay

more than 70 years of development

from the first part"314a"radar

to independent design and development"406 meter wave long-range warning radar"

then, we mastered the cutting-edge technology of phased array radar.

"7010 strategic early warning phased array radar"

china's radar industry has experienced

the leap from imitation to independent research and development

chinese radar brings a better life to hundreds of millions of people
