It's a wonder that the PLARF/Sec ART has any fuel left for these tests when its officers and soldiers are too busy pilfering the highly toxic,super volatile no doubt chemical-stinky UDH/hydrazine etc rocket fuel to cook their hot pot suppers.:oops::oops::oops::oops::oops:
And maybe after a good meal a long soak in a hot tub made of super tensile strength steel/titanium/aluminum alloy hot tub filled wth the hot water that was long heating in the body of a DF31/DF41 ICBM fuselage-so good after a long day in the missile control room/Wan sui!

Do we know what fuel they use for the solid fueled rockets? I know the DF 5 and the space rockets fuel is highly toxic but I am not sure about the solid fueled ones. Also about that guy, he said it was before 2017, so Morden China military like how don’t they enough supplies, then he said he used jet fuel to cook, lol. And not to mention the US had spy’s all over China at that time yet no one heard a peep about it

The US often uses Aluminium powder as fuel, Ammonium Perchlorate as the oxidizer, and some kind of rubber like substance (HTPB) as the binder. For its solid fuel.

It is way safer than an hypergolic. For one the propellant is basically shelf stable. The worst thing is the chlorine in the exhaust when you burn it.

Conventional or Nuclear armed MaRV warhead , a Anti Ship variant in service and a possible "HGV" (rumor) variant in the works.

The DF-26 is turning into very interesting platform...With the continued modernization and expansion of the PLA arsenal I'm curious to see if we will get a MIRV(×3) DF26 variant eventually down the road.

Will the DF26 get the "RSD10 PIONEER Mod 2 treatment" , that would surely make certain bean counter heads explode...

There are at least 45 of DF-26s in the factory right now and more to come under the shelter.

Also there are some canister or missile like stuffs on the ground but I didn't count them because it is too hard to say what they really are.
Just find out that FAS found one more DF-26, totaling 46 in the July 2023 satellite image.
