People’s Liberation Army Rear Admiral, Ma Weiming, researcher of China’s electromagnetic launch system. “At present, China has solved all the key technologies of the electromagnetic launch system for weapon payloads on various types of combat platforms, including vehicle-mounted, shipborne and underwater systems,” Ma wrote. Most significantly, these advancements would include spin-up technology to enhance shooting accuracy. He also claimed that the Chinese navy has carried out large rail gun weapons tests at sea, and the Naval University of Engineering in China has made several breakthroughs in developing smaller electromagnetic guns. A Rail Gun SARP is being displayed at the stand of the Turkish company Aselsan during the first day of the Defense & Security Fair at Impact Exhibition & Convention Center in Bangkok, Thailand. Ma did not specify how long it would take to develop and build the weapons or the ship, but he made several claims that China has developed foundational technologies for it, such as an electromagnetic launch system for weapons and combat platforms. The admiral argued that these different capabilities would turn a single ship into an “all-purpose” platform that can perform “the traditional tasks of a fleet of conventional ships.” The technology would “cleverly and effectively transform the energy from the ship’s power source – nuclear energy – into the electromagnetic energy needed to power” the weapons, Ma wrote. The Chinese supership would look to adopt new technology such as rail guns, rocket launchers, laser weapons and high-powered microwaves. Ma Weiming said in a peer-reviewed paper, the South Morning China Post reported. “It will completely overturn the combat formation of naval fleets that has been in place for over a hundred years,” People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Navy Rear Adm.
