With the continuous development of science and technology, the technology of heavy weapons is also constantly improving. At present, many advanced heavy weapons have come out.
Here are The world’s most advanced heavy weapons
1. Guided missiles
A guided missile is a weapon system capable of flying and attacking according to a pre-planned path. Guided missiles can usually locate targets through GPS, radar, infrared, etc., and use inertial guidance systems to achieve precise strikes. Guided missiles have the advantages of powerful firepower, wide strike range, and high accuracy and are an important part of modern heavy weapons.
The American Tomahawk cruise missile is a representative guided missile. The missile adopts GPS and inertial navigation systems to achieve precise guidance, can strike the ground, water surface and ships, etc., and has long-range attack capability and high concealment. It is speculated that the precision strike capability of the “Tomahawk” missile has reached an error of less than 3 meters.
2. Tank
A tank is a heavily armored vehicle with mobility and protection, usually equipped with weapon systems such as main and machine guns. Tanks have the advantages of strong off-road capability, strong attack power, a wide range of firepower, and strong resistance to strikes, and they play a vital role in modern warfare.
Currently, the Russian T-14 Armata tank is considered one of the most advanced tanks in the world. This type of tank adopts advanced armor technology, and its outer tank armor adopts a multi-layer protection strategy, including ceramic materials, reactive armor plates, multi-layer steel, etc. In addition, the T-14 “Amata” tank is also equipped with advanced main gun systems and electronic equipment, such as automatic loading systems, 3D radar and infrared sensors, etc.
3. Anti-tank missiles
An anti-tank missile is a weapon system used to attack tanks and armored vehicles, and its attack method can be a direct collision, welding or explosion. Anti-tank missiles have the characteristics of long-range, high hit rate, and high lethality, which can cause tanks to suffer fatal blows in an instant.
Among them, Israel’s “Nighthawk” anti-tank missile is a representative anti-tank missile. The missile uses technologies such as radar and infrared rays to achieve precise guidance and has an ultra-long range and high explosive power. In addition, the “Nighthawk” missile can also attack hidden targets, such as enemy bunkers and ammunition.
4. Bazooka
A rocket launcher is a weapon system that uses rocket technology to achieve a long range. It can quickly launch a large number of rockets at the target, and it is better than ordinary artillery shells in terms of strike area and lethality. Among them, the “high vertical launch system” of the United States is a quite representative rocket launcher system. This system integrates various types of missiles, including anti-ship missiles and anti-satellite missiles. It can conduct long-range guided attacks without being limited by the size and height of the ship.
In short, with the continuous leap of science and technology, the technology of weapons is also constantly improving. The above-mentioned weapon systems are just representative of technologies, not all of them. In the future, people will have more new innovations and developments for heavy weapons.
