Kumntla-ntshona weNtlango yeGobi, iqela lophando lwezenzululwazi laseTshayina lenze umfuniselo owothusayo: intonga ye-tungsten ye-alloy enobunzima obuziikhilogram ezili-140 yabetha umhlaba ngesantya se-Mach 14, ishiya kuphela umngxuma onobubanzi obumalunga neemitha ezi-3.
Olu vavanyo alubonisanga nje ukungonelanga kwengqikelelo yezixhobo ze-orbital kinetic ezisekwe kwindawo ecetywa yi-United States ngexesha leMfazwe ebandayo, kodwa yabonisa umkhombandlela wophando lwesizukulwana esitsha sezixhobo ze-hypersonic.
Isicwangciso se-United States's Star Wars sakha sacebisa ukuba kusetyenziswe iziphekepheke, izikhululo zasejukujukwini okanye iinqwelo-moya zasemoyeni ukuqalisa izixhobo ezijikeleza emajukujukwini. Phakathi kwazo, iintonga ze-tungsten ziye zaba zezona zixhobo ziphambili ngenxa yendawo ephezulu yokunyibilika, ukumelana nokugqwala, ukuxinana okuphezulu kunye nobunzima obuphezulu.
Xa intonga ye-tungsten iwa kwisikhululo sendawo kwaye ifikelela kumaxesha angama-10 kwisantya sesandi, ubushushu obuphezulu obuveliswa kukungqubana nomoya abukwazi ukutshintsha ubume bayo, ngaloo ndlela bufumana amandla okubetha okukhulu.
Izixhobo ezisekelwe emajukujukwini ezidla ngokubonwa kwimifanekiso eshukumayo yenzululwazi ziye zafikelelwa ngokungalindelekanga zizazinzulu zaseTshayina. Oku akukona nje ukuphumelela kweteknoloji, kodwa kunye nokubonakaliswa kokuzithemba kwesizwe.
Iziphumo zovavanyo zibonise ukuba emva kokuba intonga ye-tungsten ye-140 kg ibethe umhlaba ngesantya se-13.6 Mach, kuphela umgodi obunzulu obuziimitha ezi-3.2 kunye ne-radius ye-4.7 yeemitha. Oku kubonisa amandla amakhulu okutshabalalisa intonga ye-tungsten.
Ukuba iziphumo zovavanyo "yeNtonga kaThixo" ziyinyani, ubukho bemipu ye-electromagnetic kunye neziqhushumbisi ze-suborbital ziya kubaluleka ngakumbi.
Olu vavanyo aluzange lubonise kuphela amandla eTshayina kuphando lwezixhobo kunye nophuhliso, kodwa lukwangqina ukuba izixhobo ezikhulu ezaziqhayisa ngazo iUnited States azikho ngokwenene.
Uphando lwezixhobo ze-hypersonic kunye nophuhliso lwaseTshayina luphambili kwihlabathi, ngelixa i-United States isazama ukubamba.
Njengoko i-China idlula kwiinkalo ezininzi, inzuzo ye-United States iyancipha ngokuthe ngcembe. Nokuba yi-electromagnetic catapult yomkhosi wamanzi, abathwali beenqwelomoya okanye inkqubo yamandla edibeneyo, iTshayina iyakhokela ngokuthe ngcembe.
Nangona i-China isenezikhewu kwezinye iinkalo, inzuzo ye-United States ayisabonakali xa ijongene neChina.
