China has once again surprised everyone in the world of defense. Scientists in Beijing have claimed to have created a hypersonic missile that can change its shape while flying at a speed greater than Mach 5. Till now this was not considered possible, but this ‘morphing weapon’ has broken all the limits of aerodynamics.

This research was done under the leadership of Professor Wang Peng of China’s National University of Defense Technology (NUDT). It has been published in the international journal Acta Aeronautica et Astronautica Sinica. According to the report, this missile can fold or spread its wings during flight, when speed is required, the wings go inside and when the direction needs to be changed, they come out.

How does the shape change during flight?

A state-of-the-art control system (Super-Twisting Sliding Mode Control) has been installed in this morphing missile. This system changes the position of the fins in real-time so that the missile can change shape while remaining stable in the air without changing its direction. That means now the missile itself does not move – its wings move automatically. This is considered to be the most difficult achievement of hypersonic aerodynamics till now.

Technology is amazing, but challenges still remain

Although this discovery of China is surprising, it still faces many difficulties. During hypersonic flight the temperature reaches 2000°C, due to which there is a risk of metal melting. The biggest challenge is to maintain thermal protection and stability. Similarly, problems like control chattering can make the missile unstable in the air.

New hope towards hypersonic passenger aircraft

Chinese experts say that this technology can help in making hypersonic passenger aircraft in the future. However, at present it is being used entirely for military purposes. Beijing is calling this technology the future foundation of its defense sector.

China’s hypersonic missile and global concern

In the 2021 military parade, China had displayed the CJ-1000 hypersonic cruise missile, which many experts are now considering to be a model related to morphing technology. It is believed that this missile can accurately target targets like stealth jets and aircraft carriers. However, the missile was shown in a sealed container, which increased the mystery surrounding its design.

A glimpse of future missile technology – Wang Peng

Professor Wang Peng said that this research is a glimpse of future hypersonic missile technology. He told that China is now working towards not only matching America and Russia, but also surpassing them. This shape-shifting weapon can completely change the global defense balance in the coming years.

China organized a grand Victory Parade on Wednesday (3r September 2025), which the whole world saw. With the help of this parade, China demonstrated its strength internationally. On this special occasion, President Xi Jinping shared the stage with Russia’s Vladimir Putin and North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. The parade also included state -of -the -art weapons like hypersonic missiles, laser weapons and underwater drones. This view is not only showing China’s technological progress, but is also indicating its security policies internationally. This demonstration is a direct message to the US and Western countries that China is now an important part of the global power balance.

F-5C was the center of the most discussion in China’s Victory Parade with an intercontinental strategic nuclear missile with liquid fuel. China claims that this missile can attack in any corner of the world. Its firepower is 20,000 kilometers. This is 200 times more powerful than the atomic bomb dropped on Japan in World War II. It can be launched in a very short time. According to Chinese expert Professor Yang Chengjun, this missile can be divided into three parts and transported into separate vehicles. This not only makes transport easy, but can be deployed in any situation. This feature makes F-5C one of the world’s most dangerous strategic missiles.

Special things of f-5C missile

Talking about the specialty of F-5C missile, it mainly has 6 such things, which make it very dangerous.

• The range of F-5C missile is 20,000 km.
• The F-5C missile can be launched in a short time.
• The F-5C is based on the missile series, which enables it to launch it in different ways.
• The F-5C missile can carry MIRV, which can be equipped with traditional or nuclear payloads.
• The F-5C missile has a highly accurate navigation system, including Starlite Guidance, which makes it a very deadly weapon.
  It is clear from all these characteristics that F-5C is not just a weapon, but a symbol of China’s strategic power.

Impact on global security
This parade of China has forced global security experts to think. Strategic abilities such as hypersonic missiles and F-5C can affect the balance not only in Asia but all over the world. Experts believe that this parade highlights China’s policy in which it is constantly developing new technology to face external threats. This also indicates that in the future, China will play a decisive role not only in the Asia-Pacific region but also globally.
