Special Report: New Missile Gap Leaves US Scrambling to Counter China
China’s powerful military is considered to be a master at concealing its intentions. But there is no secret about how it plans to destroy American aircraft carriers if rivalry becomes war.
At November’s biennial air show in the southern city of Zhuhai, the biggest state-owned missile-maker, China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation, screened an animation showing a hostile “blue force,†comprising an aircraft carrier, escort ships, and strike aircraft, approaching “red force†territory.
On a giant screen, the animation showed a barrage of the Chinese company’s missiles launched from “red force†warships, submarines, shore batteries, and aircraft wreaking havoc on the escort vessels around the carrier. In a final salvo, two missiles plunge onto the flight deck of the carrier and a third slams into the side of the hull near the bow.
