Russian media focus: China's development of weapons may cause large-scale power grid failure!

On June 29, the Russian newspaper "Komsomolskaya Pravda" published an article.

China has developed a new type of graphite fiber bomb that can disable enemy power stations and cause widespread power outages.

Russian media aired an animated video from China Central Television, showing the effect of a weapon that can disable power plants and transmission lines in affected areas, leading to "complete power outages."

Russian television cited information from China's Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC), stating that this weapon can strike the enemy's command and control systems, causing large-scale power outages.

Russian media said that Chinese media did not provide details about the name or type of such weapons.

Russian experts speculate that it is a graphite bomb or missile. It is currently unclear at what stage this ammunition is being developed, or whether it has been deployed.

The animation shows the weapon being launched from a ground vehicle, then dropping cylindrical containers, which explode and scatter fine carbon fibers, causing short circuits in the energy infrastructure network.

Russian experts judged from clips of the CCTV video that the weapon has a range of 290 kilometers and a warhead weight of 490 kilograms.

Russian media emphasized that little is known about China's graphite weapon system within the People's Liberation Army.

A carbon fiber bomb is an aerial bomb that disables the enemy's power system by spreading conductive carbon fiber threads, also known as a graphite bomb.

Its working principle is to release chemically treated carbon fibers that adhere to power facilities, causing short circuits and power outages, with effects lasting for several days.
