China building new nuke delivery system, space weapons: US: "Washington: China is pursuing a major military buildup in a 'secretive manner' developing survivable nuclear delivery system, a 1,500 km range anti-ship missile to hit aircraft carriers and has the most active land based ballistic and cruise missile programme in the world, Pentagon has said.
Beijing is acquiring 'capabilities' to strike from a distance, warned the US Defence department, saying these moves, 'increases the potential of misunderstanding' and military conflict with other nations.
In worrying new assessment, Pentagon said Beijing had developed missiles capable of striking targets in space and is also expanding its fleet of conventional and nuclear submarines to give it forces global reach."
