I know their asat is the more primitive type of Co orbital i’M TALKING ABOUT TRACKING GUIDING AN HOMING TO THE THE SATELLITE

ever thought about why Soviet stopped launches. there r&d spending went down since late 70s.

The Defense Department’s recently released “Soviet Space Challenge’ report claims that the Soviet Union’s anti-satellite system is capable of attacking targets at altitudes greater than 5,000 kilometers. Although the main targets of the Soviet’s co-orbital ASAT are reconnaissance satellites that operate at a few hundred kilometers altitude, the report reflects concern that the system can threaten satellites at much higher altitudes. The report also claims that the Soviets continue to test ASAT components on the ground, even though they have not conducted test launches of the system for several years. Congress has banned U.S. ASAT testing against objects in space for the past two fiscal years, in the absence of Soviet test launches
The Soviet’s continued testing of ASAT components and the fact that the system’s SL-11 booster is used regularly to launch other payloads make their ASAT “a distinct threat’ to U.S. spacecraft, according to the Pentagon. There are storage facilities for many ASAT interceptors and launch vehicles at the Tyuratam space complex, the Pentagon reported, and the Soviets could launch several ASATs per day from there.

In addition, the Soviets are widely reported to have developed ground-based lasers with a potential ASAT capability and have illuminated U.S. satellites with them. The Pentagon fears that such weapons could blind or destroy satellites in geosynchronous orbit–22,300 nautical miles altitude–including strategic early warning and communications satellites. Such a capability is seen by strategists as more destabilizing than the capability to destroy satellites in lower orbits.

Responding to the charges that the Soviet Union has used ground-based lasers against U.S. satellites, Roald Sagdeyev, head of the Soviet Space Research Institute, told reporters in Washington that the lasers are used for satellite tracking and are not weapons

this chinese one is using KKV to directly hit target, which is much more advanced and precise

It is 2007 and u are testing technology of 70s era. which others have abondoned it.
and it is not clear at this point about this test origin. and Russian haved dismissed it as pure speculation.

I’ve heard those rather abstract reports, and I’m very much afraid there is no said basis below them, the anti-satellite one,” Russia’s Defense Minister Sergey Ivanov expressed his attitude to the information about China’s test of anti-satellite weapons.

“I fear it wasn’t the case. Or perhaps, I don’t fear, but it is very good that it wasn’t so,” the minister specified

Star49, you don’t know what a paper is do you? That’s not a development being done, that’s development ALREADY DONE at that time, and submitted for review to peers. Read the titles very carefully and they are creating new applicable technologies.

The problem with you is that you cannot connect that applied technologies is much more closer to applicable military technology than basic general research. I have not seen any paper or product to suggest the creation of an X-Ku band MMIC amplifier or an ultra wide band phase shifter. I see general listings of products, not nothing very specific, in frequency, power output

Your list like duh

PRODUCTION
MW- and pulsing semiconductor components:
-Gunn effect diodes
-Microwave mixer and detector GaAs Shottky diodes
-Nonlinear capacitance diodes and turning diodes
-Multiplier diodes
-Pulse diodes
-Rectifier diodes
-Microwave GaAs Schottky FETs
-Monolithic and hybrid GaAs millimeterwave IC

That’s pretty general.

Read this closely, and they mention frequencies and power output, things that amount to very specific products.

I have yet to see any mention of a 6″ GaAs wafer fab in Russia.

some of the General specification is already there when u click on each individaul product. and why would they put there exact military applications on website?. I have seen interview of owner of IBS (go figure this out). he stated he didnot got admission in Moscow state university because unofficial quota on Jews entry. and the same is true for alot of deserving people. so the scientist u are seeing in west/Israel are mostly second line what russia have produced. just wait untill there multinationals gets on there own feet.
u havent understood there capitalist sytem. thats why u dont understand there application of science.

. the point is creation of science and created weopons based on that science that is not present in public domain.
China has yet to create its own science.
this is from three years ago TV program.

American voice, with Russian translation superimposed] Problems with the functioning of Challenger’s electronic equipment, as well as serious discomfort experienced by members of its crew while flying over the area of Lake Balkhash in the USSR [now situated in Karaganda Region, central Kazakhstan], were prompted by a powerful beam from a Soviet (?TR-3) laser installation, based at the Saryshagan testing ground.

[Male narrator] In conditions of heightened secrecy, work on laser weaponry is also continuing today
Viktor Mikhaylov, head of research at the Russian Federal Nuclear Centre, captioned] The energies there are different, the scale is a thousand times greater, and then it will be a million times greater, if we advance deeper and further.

[Male narrator] If this sort of discovery is made, then the opportunity will appear to create generators of any capacity. And, in theory, there would be no limit to the capacity of a proton-ray weapon. The first strike would be the last
Mikhaylov] Laser cannons, I would say, would be a targeted outlet of energy.

Thanks to a group of prominent Russian scientists, engineers can obtain quantities of these nanocrystalline structures for review from PPP Consulting, Morrison, CO. The Russian-developed processes used to produce a variety of the nanocrystals include: evaporative-condensation and super-high-frequency plasma chemical treatment. An in situ process also can be used to produce several nanocrystalline structured materials, such as the company’s Danaloy DSC dispersion-strengthened copper alloy

Still no sign of GaN/GaAs fab in Russia, development and production.

I was just looking at ur logic. use babelfish. look at there publications. there research on L-Band. and it is small firm started in 1991.

MMIC is T/R module as used in the commercial sense of the word. MMIC for example, is the heart of every celphone, wireless router, WLAN, wireless NIC, even portable handset. If its solid state and wireless, it has to use a MMIC. Soon you can even expect microwave ovens using MMIC (solid state microwave generating and amplifying devices) replacing magnetron/klystron/traveling wave tubes.

thats why i put a company higher up in technology chan. that is not only limited to wireless network, wireless sets but system integrator, software developer and R&D. 5000 in R&D alone. just look at who own Cezh Stroms Telecom and its software support to Vodofone.

Look at this PDF in 2002

http://www.gaasmantech.org/Digests/2003/2003PDF/2-1.pdf

Here you got China building at least four GaAs/GaN fab lines.

Chinese is building assembly line. it does not have any R&D. nor it has Research papers published in world major universities.

Mikron Electronics, whose micron sizes is still 0.18 and above, supplies chips that are still useful but too obsolescent because the Chinese foundries could no longer produce them once these foundries have moved to a smaller micron size.

Swerve, isn’t China Mobile the biggest?

it is not the micron size but the Research power and doing things by itself.
just look at US army technology document. Russia is No2 behind the Japan in Microelectronics research in mid 90s when there was complete choas. ever thought about Chanelised EW, DFRM.

I dont know why u put China in comparision to Russia in Research. this is just laughable. U never understood the first point of fully vertically and horizontally integrated firm.

That’s not proof at all you make MMICs, which are made by a FAB. Cel companies alone don’t make MMICs; in fact, many don’t even make celphones, routers or even repeaters.

just look at the business structure. It includes everything from OIL to Radar and Space. and it does not show subsidaries of subsidaries.
http://www.sistema.com/section.html?s=110

Maybe you didn’t read what Phazotron said. They could buld the entire radar except for the TTL module which they had to source somewhere else. Buying a celphone company does mean you also get the facilities to manufacture celphone circuits like MMICs.

I have read it and it is another firm inside Russia. Russians built market for themselves by buying Cell networks for 10 to 15 countries and than become equipment suppliers to there own networks. just look at ther Infinitewireless wimax tech.
u have no idea about this new business model it is there own creation.

Russia does not have the capabilities to manufacture a TTL module. You cannot build fabs and refineries alone just to build miltiary TTLs or the cost is extremely prohibitive because the cost of the TTLs will have to pay for the plant and its overhead. That’s why you need a civilian commercial infrastructure that already paid the cost of the fab manufacturing TTLs and MMICs for commercial use

form where this information comes from that Russia does not have TTLs and MMIC capabilitiy? how that Phazotron AESA built? and about money one of there firms just bought Turkish Cellular for $4B in cash.

the funny thing is US always paint everything from Outside.

China has developed several types of ground-based lasers with Russian and Israeli technology, U.S. officials have said.
Russia developed anti-satellite weapons during the Cold War, and U.S. officials think the Russian military is continuing work on the weapons, which include both anti-satellite missiles and ground-based lasers.
