Pakistan should look to acquire the launcher trucker from china associated with the df-21 family of missiles, it would allow Pakistan to have sturdier platforms, that can house missiles of unknown sizes and dimensions

its not a major piece of technology, but it allows Pakistan to have a better platforms to launch more complex missiles, which Pakistan may eventually develop

A single Jin-class SSBN deters 36 cities


"A Chinese Type 094 Jin-class SSBN at Yulin (Sanya) Naval Base on Hainan Island." It's hard to reconcile the Jin-class nuclear submarine carrying 36 MIRVed warheads with 90kT each and the idyllic tropical setting.

Believe it or not, I currently find the Filipino barking dog president more annoying than the Indian media. I wonder if they have 36 large cities in the Philippines.

China's "no first use" (NFU) policy will only last as long as the moderates are in charge. Someday, a hardliner may become president. Perhaps the Filipino president will learn to shut his big mouth. I'm getting tired of his anti-Chinese propaganda.

JL-2 (CSS-NX-4) - China Nuclear Forces

"The new JL-2 (CSS-NX-4) SLBMs will carry either 3 or 4 MIRV (90kT each) or a single warhead with a yield of 250-1000 kT over a range of 8,000km. The missile is the sea-based variant of the DF-31 land-mobile long-range missile. Development of these missiles was accelerated following the successful test of their common 2m-diameter solid rocket motor in late 1983. The missile is apparently comparable in size and performance to the American TRIDENT C-4 long-range multiple-warhead three-stage solid fuel missile missile that is launched from submerged submarines."

[Note: Thank you to ChineseTiger1986 for the picture. Math: 12 JL-2 missiles x 3 MIRVs each = 36 MIRVed warheads.]

Crisp high-definition video of China's first atomic blast in 1964

China's atomic blast in 1964 was an amazing achievement because their atomic bomb was designed without supercomputers. Incredibly, in three short years, China made the leap to a 3.3 megaton thermonuclear blast in 1967.

By safeguarding China from foreign invasions through the development of thermonuclear warheads and ICBM technology by 1971, Mao Zedong gave China the breathing room to develop its economy in peace. These two milestones will forever cement Mao Zedong's claim to the title of China's greatest leader.

Coupled with Deng Xiaoping's economic reforms, the rest is history. China has grown into an economic and military superpower. "The Chinese people have stood up!"
