How to "Destroy" spying Satellites over Pakistan?? LASER? What technology did China Use in Past to h

[PkRevolution]

On 17 January 2007 Craig Covault, writing in Aviation Week & reported that China conducted a successful anti-satellite (ASAT) weapons test at about 5:28 p.m. EST on 11 January 2007. A kinetic kill vehicle launched by a medium range ballistic missile destroyed an inactive Chinese weather satellite. The Chinese Feng Yun 1C (FY-1C) polar orbiting metrological satellite had been launched in 1999. The ASAT was launched from or near the Xichang Space Center, and intercepted the target at an altitude of variously reported as either 530 or 537 miles. This altitude is consistent with the operational altitudes of American and Japanese imagery intelligence satellites.
"The U.S. believes China's development and testing of such weapons is inconsistent with the spirit of cooperation that both countries aspire to in the civil space area," National Council spokesman Gordon Johndroe said. "We and other countries have expressed our concern regarding this action to the Chinese."


So what do you do if someone fires a powerful laser at your satellite? The optics on the satellite will probably be fried, so you couldnt see who did it. The US military appears to be concerned that this possibility may become a reality. As the US depends more and more on space for communications, GPS and military applications, the US government has announced the development of a defence method intended to detect a ground-based laser attack on a satellite, and pin point the lasers location. However, some experts have warned against taking this kind of action as there is little evidence other nations are developing anti-satellite laser technology. Also, it may be defence system but it could push further development of the militarization of space

Thank you for posting so valuable techno information. Muslim countries in general and Pak in particular needs this technology as soon as possible and as many as possible.

Only problem is that a firm that invents these types of weapons, also invents its antidote. So they sell both to warring factions and laugh their way to the banks. Biggest example is the SCUD missile released by Iraq and its antidote Patriots (not the one my party :)). Patriots anti scud missiles were a total flop and production was suspended by the Ronald Regan regime.

Then came the 1991 attack on Iraq. Suddenly US went on media blitz to show the Arabs specially, Saudis how wonder technology Patriots was. GWBush senior had first press conference after the Iraqi surrender from the Patriots manufacturing site, Andover MA. Overnight Saudi placed an order and price jumped to 1 million dollar a piece which was totally worthless to begin with. According to one report not one Patriot was able to hit a SCUD . Patriots were used by Israelis.

Manufacturers always get all the cakes and eat them too

as far as i know and have read a year back or so,Pakistan have achieved markable success in this field and already working to improve it further. probabaly success full experments have been done.so nothing to worry.i m not in knowledge about Pak China cooperation in this field.

i just wonder if pakistan ever got this technology.(and InshahALLAH we can) and about to destroy satellite then comes the load shedding evil.
so i suggest get rid of corrupt political evils /get rid of electricity prob and then use it ;)

 

[Mr. Ashar]

I think to make pakistanis united is much more effective than destroying jus a satellite, First we should get unite as a nation.
China is a great example for us and now Japan is also setting an example of unity, faith and trust after the tsunami.
I just hope this could be pessible before its too late.
Lets us all pray for this and act as one pakistani nation.

Once we set our mutual objectives then we can make america a serious damage, more than destroying 1 satellite.
