As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
Recently it was claimed that an America Patriot shot down a Russia Kinzhal missile.
"The anti-missile maneuver carried out by the Kinzhal in the final flight segment and the almost vertical approach to the target makes it impossible for anti-aircraft missile systems to intercept this weapon," the source added.
The Lame Cherry is delighted that the Russian experts ignorantly made public the secret of the Kinzhal, and therefore every hypersonic missile. These missiles .........their thrust systems are incapable of generating the thrust in order to achieve the speeds this rocket generates. In laymen terms, there is not a rocket with fuel source which could produce a sustained hypersonic flight. It would be too much fuel and too much engine as gravity would nullify the effect.
What the Russians have revealed is Newton's Apple, the apple falling from a tree and knocking the greatest Christian oriented scientist in history on the head.
The Lame Cherry will explain or translate what the Russians are telling us. The final flight segment makes it impossible to shoot down the Kinzhal. Why? The missile is not flying to target. The missile is flying away from the target, meaning the missile is flying up and not down.
Interceptor missiles like Patriot have an envelop, meaning they have a distance range and an altitude range. That is what the Kinzhal is engaged in on it's final flight alignment. It is flying out of the range of the Patriot.
The reasoning behind this is scientific, because the Kinzhal is accomplishing two objectives. The primary objective is to gain altitude to become Newton's Apple. The secondary is auxiliary in the altitude protects the Kinzhal from being intercepted.
We know how high the Kinzhal can fly, and that is the limits of a solid fuel engine as this would require oxygen to burn. The almost vertical approach to the target reveals an arc point where the missile begins the final approach. The formula for this is acceleration multiplies mass times distance. This is a gravity bomb, this is what a meteor does when the gravitational force of the earth multiplies it's mass moving at speed.
There are now two factors at work with the Kinzhal. The first is that it's speed creates a plasma shield, making it invisible. The second is that the speed and trajectory of the Kinzhal negate the primary design of the Patriot. The Patriot is designed too scan upwards and and intercept on a downward arc. Think of this in Iraq point A to Israel point B, or Moscow point A to Berlin point B. Picture a rainbow.
The Kinzhal flies more akin to a number 7. The Patriot could or AWACS track a Kinzhal in the top of the 7, but as the Kinzhal goes almost vertical, it's speed increases as it maneuvers to target, and the plasma wave generates a stealth signature.
The stratosphere is 8 miles high. The thermosphere is higher, to 372 mile, which could be the outer limits, but 8 miles to 300 miles, the Kinzhal after launch accelerates to Mach 4. This would be the speed at apex point.
At Mach 12, the Kinzahl is moving at 2.5 miles per second. At Mach 4, the speed would be close to 3/4's of a mile per second and increasing from apex.
Meet you on the other side.
The Kh-47M2 Kinzhal (in Russian: Х-47М2 Кинжал, "Dagger", NATO reporting name Killjoy) is a Russian nuclear-capable hypersonic air-launched ballistic missile. It is claimed to have a range of 3,000 km (1,900 mi) and Mach 12 speed (2.5 mi/s). It can carry either conventional or nuclear warheads and can be launched by Tu-22M3 bombers or MiG-31K interceptors.
At 8 miles, the Kinzhal would reach ground zero in around 5 seconds due to increased speed. At 300 miles the Kinzhal would reach ground zero in 60 seconds. Invisible in stealth the last 30 seconds. That would be the range of the Patriot, being launched in acquiring the target.
While it is possible to track a Russian launch aircraft and to track a launched Kinzhal to apex and 10 seconds into the flight, the Patriot could launch on that trajectory, but the diameter is just 43 inches and the wingspan is 5 feet 3 inches.
The Patriot at maximum speed moves at Mach 4. It is attempting to intercept a missile moving three times faster. It's range depending on model is 19 to 100 miles. To put it in perspective, if you were a Patriot missile, it would be like you trying to throw a baseball through a window of a dropping car from the sky, and you would have one throw, and have to accomplish the throw, blindfolded and under 10 seconds.
There is always a snowball's chance in hell, but the Kinzhal is in effect an invisible gravity bomb. The literal earth is the energy that the Russians have annexed for this weapon. In theory an anti gravitational projection device could overcome the Kinzhal, but it is not likely that DARPA has such a device deployed to the Nazi of Kiev.
Impossible to intercept this weapon, is logical due to the limits of time space.
