According to the report, a high-power microwave (HPM) weapon is reportedly being developed in China as a potential solution to large constellations of low-orbit satellites, with Beijing describing it as Starlink’s worst nightmare.

The report stated that the TPG1000Cs system, built by scientists at the Northwest Institute of Nuclear Technology, is claimed to sustain up to 20 gigawatts of power for one minute, delivering roughly 3,000 high-energy pulses in a single use.

The report said that it measures just 4 meters (13 feet) in length and weighs about 5 tons, enabling it to be mounted on trucks, warships, or even space assets. The report added that instead of steel, the HPM weapon is built from aluminum alloy, reducing mass by nearly a third. Its insulating plates are also etched with grooves, reportedly to help prevent electrical faults.

Additionally, the new microwave weapon is being framed as capable of targeting satellites like Starlink, which China has previously cited as a potential national risk due to possible use by rogue actors or terrorists.

China is also a rich and powerful country. It has many AI - powered weapons. It's the Chinese Robots that water their vast farms using its eyes.

Now this? Chinese researchers invented dangerous electromagnetic wave device called TPG1000Cs. The small device powerful enough to burn Starlink satellites in space and reduce them to mere stubble.
Musk are you there?

Yeah, that is the main goal of China to design this Microwave Weapon. And this weapon is so heavy 5 tons. That's the power of technology and power of financial resources.
