A new Chinese AI can possibly detect hypersonic missiles quicker than the existing air defense system models.
The Air Force Early Warning Academy researchers in China claimed that their new artificial intelligence could identify missile threats in just 15 seconds.
Hypersonic missiles are among the best defense technologies that China, Russia, the United States, and other giant countries have in their arsenals.
But, since they know that other countries can use these dangerous rockets against them, advanced early warning system developments are also becoming a must.
Now, China might soon have a very efficient AI-based EWS that can help the Asian country detect hypersonic missiles as soon as possible.
New Chinese AI Can Possibly Detect Hypersonic Missiles in 15 Seconds
According to Interesting Engineering's latest report, the new artificial intelligence system developers said that their new EWS could determine if a hypersonic missile enters their air zones within 15 seconds.

The South China Morning Post also reported that the new AI-based EWS detection works even against Mach 5 rockets (missiles that are five times faster than the speed of sound).
The Air Force Early Warning Academy's Chinese researchers said that their new EWS would rely on a machine-learning algorithm to determine a hypersonic missile's probable route.
They said that the data captured from the early stages of hypersonic missile flights are somehow noisy, which makes it difficult for their AI system to identify.
Because of this, they created a new and unique deep learning algorithm that can remove the noise from the signals. Their new AI-based EWS works just like home human brains do thanks to this innovation.
Other Anti-Hypersonic Missile Techs
Aside from China's new sophisticated AI-based EWS, DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) is also working on another anti-hypersonic missile tech.
Their ongoing project entered phase 2, allowing DARPA researchers to test their tech in wind tunnels. Defense innovations like this are quite essential, especially since the U.S., North Korea, and Russia have been trying new variants of hypersonic rockets.

On the other hand, experts claim that the U.S. missile defense systems are still ineffective against ICBMs.
Meanwhile, the U.K.'s early warning systems are allegedly affected by smart meters.
