Beijing have been catching up in the arms race to develop missile technology that can be sent from space at a ‘very concerning rate’, the top commander of the US Space Force (USSF) added. The so-called kill chain – which identifies, tracks and attacks a target – could be used on US and allied forces in the Indo-Pacific as well as ‘over-the-horizon’ precision strikes.China’s space-based military technology is developing ‘breathtakingly fast’ with US forces at risk of the ‘kill chain’, Washington has warned. The warning comes only a month after Donald Trump unveiled his own plans for a $175 billion ‘Golden Dome’ defence system which he says will protect the US from the world’s most powerful weapons. The integration of space-tech with China’s army, navy and air force has made them ‘more lethal, more precise and more far-ranging’ and could take the lead from the US in the space-arms race. What is your take on Chinese arms race advancement ?
