China's new giant wave missile

At present, the Chinese Navy only has one type of submarine launched ballistic missile, the Giant Wave series. Models such as Giant Wave 1, Giant Wave 2, and Giant Wave 3 have been developed, weaving a reliable sea based nuclear deterrence network for the Chinese Navy. Among them, the Julang-1 missile is the first submarine launched ballistic missile developed by China, reportedly derived from the land-based Dongfeng-21 medium range ballistic missile technology.

The Giant Wave Missile is the code name for China's nuclear submarine submarine launched ballistic missile. It is currently in service with two types, the Giant Wave 1 and the Giant Wave 2. Recently, the Chinese Navy conducted a low-key test launch of a submarine launched strategic missile.

The range of the Julang-1 missile is not far, only 2000 to 3000 kilometers, and its accuracy is not sufficient, so it does not have the ability to carry multiple warheads.In order to correct the deficiencies such as insufficient range of the JL-1 missile, the Chinese Navy has re developed and equipped the JL-2 long-range submarine launched missile. In terms of range, the Julang-2 missile has significantly increased its range,It can carry multiple warheads and simultaneously strike different military targets. however,Although the range has significantly increased compared to the JL-1 missile, there is still a certain gap compared to China's military needs.Later, with the unremitting efforts of researchers, the development of the new generation of the Chinese Navy's Julang-3 missile went smoothly,Although it is not the so-called Giant Wave 4 in the West, some analyses suggest that the test launch is the latest improved version of the Giant Wave 3, with an estimated range of around 15000 kilometers and the ability to cover any part of the world.

At present, the Chinese navy is in a critical period of accelerated development, with various new weapons emerging one after another. I believe that it will not be long before nuclear powered aircraft carriers and large displacement nuclear submarines are successfully launched, further enhancing China's national defense capabilities.
