Foreign Media: China Develops Hypersonic Data Link System, Achieving Nanosecond-Level Synchronization, Possibly Causing NATO to "Go Blind"
The hypersonic battlefield data link system developed by China Electronics Technology Group (CETC) can achieve time synchronization accuracy within 5 nanoseconds, which is about two orders of magnitude higher than the current NATO Link 16 system.
This system is specifically designed to cope with hypersonic operational environments, maintaining real-time secure coordination between ground stations/radar/fleets/satellites when aircraft fly at 5 times the speed of sound and missiles at 11 times the speed of sound, building a collaborative strike ecosystem.
Experts pointed out that this capability will shift from "isolated breakthroughs" to "networked cooperation," making opponents without comparable communication capabilities "time-blind" when facing hypersonic formations, making it difficult for them to respond accurately. This breakthrough indicates that China has taken a strategic step forward in future warfare communications, possibly redefining the tactical landscape of hypersonic operations.
