Why does China need a laser in the South China Sea and Tibet?
China continues to pursue its ambitions in Tibet and the South China Sea, using the latest achievements of its own military-industrial complex.
According to Chinese media reports, the People’s Liberation Army of China in the near future will adopt the new laser mobile units LW-30.
The main objective of laser installations will be to intercept unauthorized flying vehicles and neutralize homing missiles, as well as gliding bombs.
New weapons will primarily be located on the territory of the Tibet Autonomous Region and on islands in the South China Sea.
From open sources it is known that the characteristics of the LW-30 allow the system to detect and hit small low-flying targets that have low (less than 200 km per hour) speed.
Chinese experts believe that the installation will serve as a reliable protection of the territory of the PRC from attempts to spy and sabotage activities.
The laser system was developed in one of the leading enterprises of the Chinese military-industrial complex, the Chinese Corporation of Aerospace Science and Industry, and consists of a radar, a laser, and an armored support vehicle.
When it was created, natural factors were taken into account in which this system would have to work - high humidity and rarefied air.
