BOSNIA: POSAVINO CORRIDOR: US UNIT SETS UP FIRST CHECKPOINT
(26 Dec 1995) English/Nat
A U-S combat unit set up the first checkpoint in the Posavino corridor in Bosnia on Tuesday.
The Posavino corridor was one of the most contested regions in northern Bosnia controlled by the Serbs.
The U-S troops form part of the advance guard of 20-thousand U-S IFOR troops due to move into this northeastern area of Bosnia.
An American armored combat unit rolled into the Bosnian countryside Tuesday after crossing the Sava River forming the border between Croatia and Bosnia.
Their mission was to start building up the U-S presence in the Posavino corridor, formerly a front line area.
The troops began securing the Serb-held territory without any incidents.
Mines present the most danger for the moment.
A site was chosen where the U-S troops beg...

US’ Deadly Combat Lasers ‘Shoot-Down’ Chinese Hypersonic Missiles
US’ Deadly Combat Lasers ‘Shoot-Down’ Chinese Hypersonic Missiles & Deflate Beijing’s Military Ambitions.
US experts appear to be rattled with China’s hypersonic missile weapon test. According to American news sources, a hypersonic gliding missile unit tested by China has an intercontinental range at a speed that none of the missiles in the United States has yet.
The American press notes that in the middle stage of the flight, the Chinese hypersonic missile is capable of being over the South Pole, bypassing the American missile defense. At high speed, it can glide to the target from almost any direction, which makes it very difficult to detect and destroy using existing weapons.
At present, the US missile defense system is certainly not capable of defeating the hypersonic weapons of Rus...

A site was chosen where the U-S troops began working on setting up a checkpoint now to be known as "Checkpoint Cadillac" .
20-thousand American troops will soon be stationed in this part of Bosnia to enforce the Dayton peace agreement.

US’ Deadly Combat Lasers ‘Shoot-Down’ Chinese Hypersonic Missiles & Deflate Beijing’s Military Ambitions.
US experts appear to be rattled with China’s hypersonic missile weapon test. According to American news sources, a hypersonic gliding missile unit tested by China has an intercontinental range at a speed that none of the missiles in the United States has yet.
The American press notes that in the middle stage of the flight, the Chinese hypersonic missile is capable of being over the South Pole, bypassing the American missile defense. At high speed, it can glide to the target from almost any direction, which makes it very difficult to detect and destroy using existing weapons.
At present, the US missile defense system is certainly not capable of defeating the hypersonic weapons of Russia and China. The US missile defense system is incapable of stopping a decisive nuclear strike on its territory by these adversaries.
A 2018 report by the US Government Accountability Office stated that China and Russia are focused on developing hypersonic weapons because of their speed, altitude, and maneuverability which can defeat most missile defense systems. “There are no countermeasures,” stated the report.
In March 2018, the head of the Strategic Command of the US Armed Forces (before which he had commanded Air Force Space Command), General John E. Hyten, said the United States had no defense against Russian and Chinese hypersonic weapons.
To counter it, the United States has decided to urgently intensify work on sensitive sensors in low orbits capable of tracking the launch of hypersonic missiles and the flight paths of their gliding blocks.
The United States proposes to use combat lasers against the hypersonic weapons of China and Russia, which ‘could shoot down missiles in the acceleration phase’.
The sensors determine the launch, allowing you to see the missile, after which the combat laser is turned on, which destroys the hypersonic unit until it separates from the carrier.
Currently, it is not known whether existing laser weapons can hit such targets in seconds or even fractions of a second. To defeat a hypersonic missile unit before it is separated from the carrier, a huge power of the laser beam is needed.
The idea of shooting down ballistic missiles in the initial trajectory phase is not new. Therefore, the United States and its allies are trying to bring their land, sea, and air-based anti-missile weapons as close as possible to the borders of a potential enemy, to which Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran belong. And in this regard, the use of directed energy weapons, including lasers, generally fits well into this concept.
