China Develops Hypersonic Missiles Launchable From Space, House

News summary

China has announced its intent to lead the signing of the Southeast Asia Nuclear Weapon-Free Zone Treaty, also known as the Bangkok Treaty, amid its rapid nuclear arsenal expansion. This treaty aims to establish a vast nuclear-free zone, but the U.S. has not signed due to concerns that the treaty's requirements would limit its strategic and military flexibility in Southeast Asia, particularly regarding alliances and deterrence strategies. Additionally, China has achieved a significant technological breakthrough by developing hypersonic missiles capable of being launched directly from space, reaching speeds up to Mach 20, which makes them highly difficult to detect or intercept by conventional defense systems. This space-launched missile technology uses hypersonic glide vehicles controlled remotely from Earth-command centers, allowing unpredictable trajectories and enhancing China's global strike capabilities. China’s hypersonic missile program began in 2010, with successful tests since 2017, rapidly advancing its military technology within 15 years. These developments mark a significant shift in global military dynamics as China expands both its nuclear policy influence and cutting-edge missile technology.
