What's new

China Space Military:Recon, Satcom, Navi, ASAT/BMD, Orbital Vehicle, SLV, etc.

A new satellite launch is every 3-4 years in the remote sensing arena.

Every satellite is more advanced than its precedor. China cannot cut short the curve without completing it.

According to Zhou Zi Kuan, director of international business development at CRESDA, a unit of the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corp, Chinese satellites performance are on par with Spot 5 (2002) and Cartosat 1 (2005).

France launched Spot 6 and Spot 7 will be launched by year end.

Cartosat 2, 2A and 2B have already been launched by India after Cartosat 1.

Cartosat 3 has resolution of 25 cm. It will be the most advanced satellite in the World for remote sensing.

You are ignorant and seriously outdated. We are not indian. 3-4 years for the launch is damn slow for us albeit it is cheerleaders
mode!

Look at the frequency of our launches

Long March 4C launches Yaogan Weixing-16 spy satellite for China | NASASpaceFlight.com

Our Yaogan 遥感 satellite on 2011 launch has an accuracy rate of 10 cm

I need to find if another launch after 2011 has a better accuracy rate


ISRO plans a new high-resolution earth satellite - The Hindu



DF-2 to be launched late 2013 has 0.8 metres resolution. That matches Cartosat-2 performance.

That is why China is generations behind India in Satellite imagery.

You are no better than us! Dont brag!

what is your revenue in Sat imagery?
 
Let's assume all of this to be true, which I doubt, but let's assume so.

So what? We can't do everything at once, we are advancing at great speed in almost every field, the key word is ALMOST. No one can claim to be the best at everything. We don't have enough men who can do the job. Though we do have a lot, but the people who can actually lead such teams are limited in any country.

This topic is very specific. You are not saying space program, or something like that but just one thing. It's like a guy is boasting to have got full marks on one question while failed the test to a guy who got the question wrong, but got 90%.

We are launching satellites at a break neck speed, and our space program is one that could lead the world in 2030, when we land on the moon. By then we will also have a space station, and all that. You could doubt whether we could do it, but our space program has given no sign that it should be doubted.

As to the claim India will be Israel, it's possible, but Israel is not a tech super power, they are very specific in what they can do. They are not the best across the board. A lot of fields they are contributing next to nothing.

But to claim we will be the same as middle east, so we will go backwards?

We accept that you are ahead of us in certain fields of space
But you also must accept our lead in this

I'm sure India has it's own plans for space. No way you guys are going in blind, but is it as grand as ours? The tone of this topic makes it sound like we are some small country that has no program at all and is light years behind.

Our plans is Beidou Sat for a GPS like system to cover the world. Manned space flight, test space station, more manned space flight, moon rovers, real space station, man landing on the moon, and then mars missions in between then a goal of man landing on mars by 2050.

No way we can cover all fields in space so it only make sense for India to be ahead in certain fields unless the Indian plan is the same. We can't cover all fields, we simply don't have enough men to cover all fields.

For example, mars missions India may be better, but that would be because we are more focused on space station and landing on the moon first. While this satellite imagery could be a temporary setback because of the effort we are making on Beidou system.

If you got advance technology just post that, say what you done, don't bring us into it. We are not perfect you are bound to find things you are better at. If we really want there are tech fields where we are ahead of US, but that doesn't mean we are better than the US.

BS.

“Five or 10 years ago a lot of people said our satellites were no good,” Zhou said. “Even giving the data away for free they did not attract many users. But the government has changed its previous focus from manned space to applications.”

Even Chinese Government itself doesn't use chinese data but buys from Foreign countries.

And Chinese Government provided data for free, yet no one used it. :lol:
 
they're talking about civilian satellites about 5 or ten years ago. aslo, most of them has very large swath placed at higher orbit, not few km like yindian satellites sacrificing area coverage for useless bragging..
 
We should invest heavily in satellite imaginary to widen the gap by 3 to 4 dacade so china may not think of catching up.

yeah, comparing indian most advanced military sats with old chinese commercial sats. lol
even that you don't look any better. show me one indian high resolution satellite that has coverage area more that 10 km? lol current chinese commercial satellites with 1~2 m resolution are around 50 km swath and in colors, not black and white. they could easily achieve less than 1m if they use longer narrow lens, instead of wider angle. for what purpose? let indians goo goo gaga :lol:

the DF-2 they plan to launch is also around 50 km. yeah, i see they are widening the gap :lol:

DF-2 is capable of producing images with a ground sampling distance of 80 centimeters in black and white, and 3.2 meters in color. Its images have a swath width of 48 kilometers,

This coming from someone whose country can't even make a decent rifle。

A country that rebrands Made-in-China phones as its own。

A country that doesn't have a semi-condutor industry and does not make a single chip or CPU of any significance。

A country the IT industry of which is mainly composed of call-centres.

Hilarious。:rofl:
 
Indian cheerleading troupe in this post.

Looks like someone is jealous that China makes decent spy sats, like Yaogan.

All I know is that some Indians are jealous that China has achieved in many areas, like technology. Maybe Indians should put away the hate and actually admit that China is a rising power.
 
Just for the reference the carosat 2's swath is 9.6 km.

catosat-1 2.5m .. 27 km swath
catosat-2a/2b .. 0.8m..9.6km swath
future catosat-3 ... 0.3m? .. 6km swath


just a few civilian chinese satelites that i know of..

cbers-2b launched 6 years ago with brazil .... 2.7m resolution, 27km swath
zy-3 ... 2.1m resolution, 51 km ground swath
Gaofen .. 1~2m resolution at around 40 ~ 50 km swath width
df-2 to be launched later this year capable of 0.8m res at 48km swath


the indians are not making any improvement at all generation after generation, other than sacrificing area coverage for boasting. indian sats has to go around earth multiple times to take shots to get same coverage compare other non-indian spy satellites. this is unacceptable for military purpose :lol:
