China successfully tests non-nuclear hydrogen bomb
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] Beijing has successfully tested a non-nuclear "hydrogen bomb." This was reported on April 20 by the South China Morning Post.

It is noted that the bomb developed by the Research Institute of China State Shipbuilding Corporation uses the chemical compound magnesium hydride. During testing of the device weighing two kilograms, a fireball with a temperature of more than 1 thousand degrees Celsius arose.

"When activated by conventional explosives, magnesium hydride underwent rapid thermal decomposition, releasing hydrogen gas, which ignited," the material says.

The researchers believe the combination will enable precise control of blast intensity and achieve uniform destruction of targets over a wide area.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, on January 7, Chinese scientists developed a highly accurate atomic clock that could change the nature of future wars. With its help, military radars can operate synchronously at great distances from each other, as well as detect and target stealth fighters.

Last November, Beijing announced that it had developed a new type of microwave weapon that resembles the Death Star beam from the Star Wars movies. The device generates several microwave pulses that merge into a powerful energy beam and attack a target. The system can also effectively jam signals from American GPS and other satellites.
