Reporters Cheng Yanhao, Liu Jiawei / Taipei Report
The Chinese Academy of Sciences tested the latest Tiangong Three Extended Range Air Defense Missile at the Jiupeng Flying Missile Base. Not only did he draw a raging flame skyward in the dark, but he also posted an infinite height in the shooting bulletin, which was intended to remind all planes and ships. Do not enter the shooting caution zone. In addition, the Tiangong III missile has a range of more than 300 kilometers. It’s called the Taiwan version of THAAD. Experts say it should be more than enough to block China’s Dongfeng missiles against Taiwan. As I understand it, the Chinese Academy of Sciences also scheduled to continue testing the missile.

China released images of the Dongfeng 11 missile launch with military threats, and the intention to intimidate Taiwan is obvious, but Taiwan is not unprepared. Pingtung’s Jiupeng Base was blazing into the sky in the dark night. This is the Tiangong III extended range missile from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Intercept the Tiangong II target missile that simulates the Communist Army at a speed of Mach 7 and a range of 300 kilometers. It is not against the PLA’s Dongfeng missile. Question, and the setting of an infinite height in the announcement of the shoot has caused heated discussions among netizens. Can infinite height hit the moon? Or hit the edge of the universe? Is this missile really that powerful?
Jie Zhong, Senior Assistant Investigator for the National Affairs Foundation: “We can reasonably speculate that you are testing the anti-missile system.”
It turned out to be the height of the ban on shooting in the bulletin area. It is not that missiles can reach infinite heights. A careful analysis of general combat aircraft is approximately 10,000 to 30,000 feet. The civil aviation aircraft measures approximately 45,000 feet. The height of the American B1 bomber exceeds 50,000. Even if the U2 reconnaissance aircraft flies only about 70,000 feet, the Tiangong III extended-range type is known to fire up to 70 kilometers and about 220,000 feet. No matter how high a plane or plane flies, they are warned to ban entry.

US Army THAAD, the theater’s high altitude defense system is for intercepting enemy missiles at high altitude. The Chinese Academy of Sciences is proud to develop missiles. The extended range Tiangong III has a fast rate of fire and a higher rate of fire than the Patriot III. It is also known as the Taiwan version of THAAD.
Jie Zhong, Senior Assistant Investigator for the National Affairs Foundation: “How can we grasp the precise position of large ships (firing targets) in the enemy convoy hundreds of kilometers away? After all, we lack the ability to back up the huge American system (satellite intelligence). “

The missile technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has attracted the attention of the United States since the Xiongsan. Together with the continuous improvement of the Tiangong-3 extended range, it will not only overtake Great Britain and catch up with the United States, but also become the strongest firenet for the air defense of the Taiwan Strait.
