in the US is extremely concerned about the presence of hypersonic rockets with nuclear potential in China. Chairman of the Joint Committee of Headquarters Mark Milli, who is the main military adviser to US President Joe Bayden, said Bloomberg that the launches of Chinese hypersonic missiles can be compared with the launch of the “satellite-1” in the USSR.
“and this is only one rocket system. China’s military capabilities are much more powerful, and they are rapidly increasing,” continued to share the concerns of Milli. He noted that the PRC was long left from the large infantry army mainly from the peasants to comprehensively developed armed forces with world ambitions.
The military adviser also noted that all the last innovations are hypersonic missiles, artificial intelligence, robots – will lead to enormous changes in the nature and types of warfare. According to him, US military forces conduct tests in all these areas.
In mid-October, the media became known that in August China conducted a hypersonic rocket test with a nuclear charge. Then the Chinese hyperzvukovka rocket had the land through a low-bit space and almost struck the intended target.
“Satellite-1” – the first artificial satellite of the Earth, launched the USSR on October 4, 1957. In the US, the launch of the satellite was perceived very painfully, in the American society, a moral panic began due to the assumptions about the technological lagging against Russia. This led to the creation of the National Aeronautics Aeronautics and the Space Space (NASA) and the beginning of the “Space Race”.
