The future of China 'Dongfeng -41' intercontinental ballistic missiles equipped with nuclear warheads, enough to aim at a population of more than 50,000 U.S. cities and towns. "China's Second Artillery missile tests on July 24, a Georgetown University professor of Chinese nuclear program Philip ? Carbo make such a warning. British "Jane's Defense Weekly, 22 (advance), declared that this launch is the latest" Dongfeng -41 "ICBMs, it is not only a substantial increase in the range and can carry up to 10 sub-guided nuclear warheads against different goals.
 
Chinese military experts familiar with the Second Artillery Wei Guoan 21, denied that the missile was test-fired an interview with the "Global Times" reporter "Dongfeng -41", he said, the Second Artillery Corps is developing the third generation of ICBMs to meet Western Description characteristics must be limited to the development of third-generation nuclear weapons, in order to more effectively respond to security challenges. "
 
"Jane's Defense Weekly, said that, since 2007, the multiple photos appeared on the Chinese network," Dongfeng -41 missiles equipped transport / erection / emission vehicles (TEL) driving on the highway. The report quoted anonymous U.S. officials as saying that the Second Artillery Corps July 24 launch is currently China's most advanced intercontinental missile Dongfeng -41 "" This is the U.S. authorities for the first time confirmed the existence of the missile project.
 
Western concern is, "Dongfeng -41" may adopt the multiple warhead independent reentry vehicles (MIRV) technology. The technology is not simply on missile loaded rounds of warheads, but let each sub-warhead has a separate flight trajectory, adjustable track attack different targets. A sub-warhead, so Each ABM interceptor missiles can destroy the effectiveness of the anti-missile system greatly reduced. An Asian military expert told Jane's reporter, "Dongfeng -41" can carry up to 10 sub-guided nuclear warheads, which will severely shaken the U.S. anti-missile system reliability.
 
"Jane's Defense Weekly, said, with the Chinese active duty" Dongfeng -31 "and" Dongfeng-31A "ICBMs," Dongfeng -41 "may also be" cold launch ", that is, by means of an auxiliary power unit missile from the launch barrel ejected missile reaches a certain height and then ignite the main engine flight. Reports have speculated, "Dongfeng -41" belonging to three solid fuel propellant missile, "Dongfeng -31" compared to the former projectile diameter greater length of the longer, more deterrent means warhead load and range. "Dongfeng -41" Russian "Topol-M" intercontinental missile the same TEL three car as a mobile launch platform, more combat flexibility than the DF-31 mobile platforms.
 
The West always vote for the development of China's nuclear forces, all kinds of suspicions vision. Published by the Washington Freedom Lighthouse website reported that the Second Artillery Corps July 24 from Shanxi wuzhai missile bases to the thousands of miles of the western desert launch new missile, the type of flight tests often by limiting the first-stage rocket to shorten the range of working hours, to ensure that the missile fell into the Chinese territory.
 
The report also said that China has always claimed to not be the first to use nuclear weapons and nuclear forces for a counter-attack against its territory a nuclear attack. Equipment MIRV ICBMs is the ideal "first nuclear strike (strike military objectives) weapons," Dongfeng -41 "not only is the first Chinese strategic missiles carrying multiple warheads, but also have reliable times a nuclear strike capability, which may represent China will change the commitment to "no-first-use of nuclear weapons". Carbonell said, the Second Artillery Corps only need to have 32 refilled "Dongfeng -41" intercontinental missile launcher carrying nuclear warheads, enough to aim at a population of more than 50,000 U.S. towns. He declared, "If China eventually formulate such a strategy in U.S. cities to combat the social wealth, and we do not build to fight against the missile defense system, to enhanced nuclear deterrent in Asia means the end.
 
"Washington freedom Lighthouse" website report also said, "Dongfeng -41" ICBMs maximum range of about 14,000 km, launched from the northern or eastern China, enough to crack down on the whole territory of the United States. American scholars as early as in 1992, there mentioned the existence of "Dongfeng -41" project, but the United States believes that the long development cycle led to the People's Liberation Army to abandon the project, focusing on the development of DF-31 ICBMs. U.S. military experts said Fisher, proved the Pentagon ignored the development of this new missile.
