China Ballistic Missiles and Nuclear Arms Thread

[W20]

"Yumen Gansu Wind Farm"
is not the "real silos"

"China certainly has reasons to build them" ... "They can store high-thrust liquid-fuel intercontinental missiles"

"let the Western media imagine it"

Very interesting

Don’t be fooled! Those are just wind farm shaped ICBMs! Those sneaky Chinese think they are playing 3-Chess, but the all knowing west is playing 4-checkers so bingo!

Clearly the SFA is getting overpaid if their job is that easy....

The Russians use Topol and Yars solid missiles on silos though. The US Minuteman solid missile is also silo based.
I agree that it makes more sense if these are windmills than silos though.

NO WORDS......

Bro, assuming it is true..... why would China cluster all those nuke silos so close to each other? A single warhead can take out like ALL those nuke silos.

Western media is king of scaremongering and fake threats.

Say the expert in missile silo infrastructure

What do you think?

Considering this is from The Sun.
Considering that they're just citing an article from Naval and Merchant ships magazine as if it is a depiction of official PLA strategy (rofl).


The answer to your query is hardly difficult to reach.

Remember the Kosovo War. Even though the US suspected armor on the ground were decoys, that had to hit them anyway just in case. How many decoy silos can China make all over inner Mongolia?

The US does not have tens of thousands of nuclear missiles though.

The US stated in its March 2019 New START declaration that 1,365 warheads are deployed on 656 ICBMs, SLBMs, and strategic bombers. The total stockpile is about 3800 warheads.

It takes 2-3 warheads to guarantee a kill on a silo so by building 500 silos, you'd be wasting a large portion of the current US nuclear stockpile.
