Dubbed as ‘Guam Killer’ Missile, China for the first time will Publicly display its latest DF-26 intermediate-range ballistic missile at Military parade to be held on September 3rd, commemorating the 70th anniversary of Japan’s surrender in China, DF-26C IRBM nicknamed ‘Guam Killer’ due to its ability to reach a major US base in Guam in the western Pacific has been under development for last 5 years.

Beijing-based Sina Military Network recently claimed that People’s Liberation Army’s DF-26 missile is unmatched in the world, IRBM with reported range of 3,500 km will replace older DF-4 missiles which are main weapon system of the PLA’s Second Artillery Corps that entered service in the 1980s, has a range of 4,000 km and later improved to 4,750 km.

DF-26, a two-stage solid fuel rocket IRBM, measures 14 meters long with a diameter of 1.4 m and a launch weight of 20 tons. It can carry a nuclear or conventional warhead that weighs 1,200-1,800 kilograms and has an estimated maximum range of more than 5,000 km.

Sina Military Network also believes that only India’s Agni-V with reported range of 5000 km is only other missile system in the world which is comparable to latest Chinese missile system even though Chinese experts themselves believe that Agni-V can hit targets over 8000 km with a lighter payload,making it much better missile system then DF-26.

however, Sina Military Network also claim that DF-26 is vastly superior to the Agni-V because it can carry heavier warheads and can be fired with greater precision, which will be contested by Indian Defence Analyst who always have claimed that Agni-V is actually superior to latest Chinese offering since Agni-V itself will have a MIRVed variant in canister sized configuration in near future and uses latest in Anti-ABM Systems to penetrate highly defended areas.

The declared range is political. The demonstrated capability is not. Every ballistic missile has a maximum and a minimum range - Agni 5 has a range of 5,500 km with an effective payload of 1,500 kg - range and effective payload capacity are inversely proportional to each other - range increases with a decrease in payload - Agni 5 can hit as far as 8000 km but at the cost of a decreasing effective payload capacity. Agni 5's range is over 5,000 km (3,100 mi) and up to 8,000 km. Same is the case with DF-26 which has a range of over 5,000 km with an effective payload capacity of 1,200-1,800 kg.

Right now Agni 5's second and third stages have carbon composite casings - In future DRDO plans to use carbon composite motor casings in its first stage as well therefore facilitating greater fuel fraction, thereby enhancing range.

Agni IV and Agni V use an extremely potent guidance package that utilises an indigenous ring laser gyroscope inertial navigation system (RLG-INS) coupled with a micro-inertial navigation system or MINGS. Both the RLG-INS and MINGS are capable of receiving multi-constellation updates from satellite navigation systems such as the US''s NAVSTAR GPS and Russia's GLONASS to remove accumulated errors in their measurements. India's IRNSS SATNAV system can be used for Agni IV but not for Agni V precisely owing to it's coverage limitations.

Indigenous Ring Laser Gyroscope represents a significant improvement over older missiles in the Agni series (I, II & III) which use a dynamically tuned gyroscope-INS coupled with a star-sighting system for navigation.

The combination of RLG-INS and MINGS, the latter being basically a MEMS-based miniaturised magnetometer, is capable of providing sub-200 metre circular error probable (CEP) accuracy at max range for Agni IV and V.

The superior accuracy of the Agni IV and V can also be attributed to the incorporation of a much more powerful onboard computer - they incorporate system on chip (SOC) based computers that weigh just 200 grams and have 6-7 times greater processor capability than PCB based hardware consisting of myriad integrated circuits which were used in early Indian ballistic missiles namely Prithvi series and Agni I, II and III which came with weight and space limitations. The embedded SOC concept requires very little power and gives far greater leeway in warhead configuration besides enhancing efficiency.

Agni IV and V rely on digitally connected multi-channel communications within its body for the control system, thereby reducing a lot of the cabling that would have otherwise gone into these missiles. This serves to reduce the risk of failure in the missile system and increases dependability.

is there any info on minuterising the A- IV & V ?

he People’s Liberation Army’s DF-26 missile is an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) without peer in the world, the Beijing-based Sina Military Network claims.

International standards consider guided missiles to be IRBMs if they have a range of more than 3,000 kilometers. Due to China’s geopolitical considerations, however, the PLA only considers a missile to be an IRBM if it has a range of greater than 4,000 km.

China’s first-generation IRBM is the DF-4, which represents a number of breakthroughs in weapons technology such as multi-stage rockets, warhead heat resistance, high-altitude ignition engines and inertial navigation, the report said.

The DF-4 provided the foundations for the country’s satellite-launching and intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) technology. The Long March 1 carrier rocket which launched China’s first satellite in 1970 was developed from DF-4 technology.

With a range of 4,000 km — later improved to 4,750 km — and the ability to carry a hydrogen bomb with a blast yield equivalent to 3 million tons of TNT, the DF-4 has been a core weapon of the PLA’s Second Artillery Corps since it entered service in the 1980s.

However, the DF-4 is still a first-generation IRBM and recent trends such as the replacement of first-generation medium-range ballistic missiles and ICBMs indicates that the DF-4 is also in the process of being replaced by the new DF-26, which may have entered service around 2010.

The DF-26, a two-stage solid-fuel rocket IRBM, is reportedly 14 meters long with a diameter of 1.4 m and a launch weight of 20 tons. It can carry a nuclear or conventional warhead weighing 1,200-1,800 kilograms and has an estimated maximum range in excess of 5,000 km, meaning it can strike American military bases in the Asia-Pacific such as Guam or Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean.

Recent leaked photos of the DF-26 show the missile being transported by a six-axis missile delivery vehicle, suggesting that it also has mobile launch capability.

Sina Military said the DF-26 stands above the pack as the most advanced IRBM in the world. The United States and the Soviet Union are unable to develop missiles similar to the DF-26 due to the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty signed by Reagan and Gorbachev in 1987. The treaty eliminated nuclear and conventional ground-launched ballistic and cruise missiles with intermediate ranges, defined as between 500-5,500 km.

The only other missile comparable to the DF-26 is India’s Agni-V, which has a range of about 5,000 km but has been categorized by some as an ICBM due to claims that its range could be up to 8,000 km. However, Sina Military said, the DF-26 is vastly superior to the Agni-V because even though it is significantly smaller in size and weight, the DF-26 can carry heavier warheads and can be fired with greater precision.
 
looks like a bunch of indians are again celebrating their carnival filled with their symbolic self-inflicted inebriations:sarcastic:,who gives a crap to what india has?seeing China mentions india in some circumstance makes y'all feel good,huh?I highly doubt our analysts would have deigned to mention our missiles along with indian ones,let alone saying it's comparable to ours,maybe that's another fiction the indian inferiority-complex-infested media coin to offer your niggarland some fake confidence and vanity your culture always desperately need:lol:

I will not click indian links,they will stink my fingers
 
our latest missile is the equivalent of Russian Trump-Card Yars

india,quit mental masturbating,do something pragmatic,like accepting the harsh truth that you are lagging not only 50 years behind

it's worthless to prove anything to lower IQ India niggas!

off course u cant, even when ur great minded analyst are saying so:hitwall: then go tiu nia ma chow hai

Yeah, like using left-hand to eat and right hand to clean nigga's AsEhole!

sure come to my house every morning to provide ur services of left-hand to eat and right hand to clean nigga's AsEhole

Actually at the moment both Agni IV and V aren't MIRV capable - For a missile to be MIRV capable it should feature a post boost control vehicle (PBV) on top of its respective stages. Both Agni IV and V lack PBV and neither has it been tested on any Indian missile - Probably Agni VI will be India's first MIRV capable ICBM featuring a post boost control vehicle (PBV) on top of its three stages. It is to be tested by 2017.

Advanced Agni-6 missile with multiple warheads likely by 2017 | Business Standard News

@MilSpec @Abingdonboy Has India tested any missile with Multiple warhead / MRV? (MRV – Multiple Reentry Vehicles) which deliver two or more warheads against the same target contrary to the MIRV's which hit separate targets.
