Perhaps he doesn't know .. so he is assuming .. like his baby steppers
.. typical
Are you intellectually challenged or have problem with your memory? Reread my posts before commenting. I mentioned time and time again that China is now able to make steppers and etching machine, two most important machines in the semiconductor industry. I emphasized on its importance to a country's overall national competitiveness, while you kept jabbering how it is unimportant and how high powered lasers and software are more important. When I repeated my re-emphasis on this it, you begun to attack me and stupidly mis-remembered, thinking I was criticizing the Chinese semi-conductor industry. You later kept using the term "baby stepper", which makes no sense, instead makes yourself look like a fool.
Again, use your brain before rebutting other people's comments. Even if you might now agree with someone else's opinion, learn to agree that it's okay to have disagreement, that is called mutual respect. We are all living outside of China, in the West, there is something called freedom of speech and we respect each other despite of difference of opinions. This is not in China, where you get house arrested and beaten for saying something.
Even if you are debating simply from a technical approach, use common sense, don't make up stuff. This is a professional forum, not a trash talk dump like Sina or 6park.com. If you don't agree with my opinion, rebut it with evidence and proof, don't bullshit and repetitively use "baby stepper" as your attack motto.
I have held back for a long time, but enough is enough. Someone has to tell you the truth and it is time to grow up.

Where do you get this kind of information or to be more precise, who feeds you this kind of information?
Where do I get those info? Sina.com, military section. As much as most those netizens have wetdreams during daylight, some of them are still sober and acknowledge China's need for improvement, instead of just always hail Mao and believe China can conquer the world.
Remember the mobile missile platform used in the recent NK parade? That actually came from China, it is coded WS51200. It uses Uncle Sam's Cummins engines and Kraut ZF transmissions. The only thing made in China is the metal frame.
If you don't believe me, just go check it out.

This trash talking is getting so f*&king ridiculous, I feel like we're back in highschool again.
Back onto topic.
Currently the discussion is still solely based on what we think and what the politicians think. There are no formal technical articles or credible/prestigious reviews. Neither are we seeing any related news leak from CCTV.
So far the speculated DF-41, JL-2 and DF-21 ASM's are all mere speculation with no factual proofs. DF21 anti carrier missile begun with bunch of daydream netizens on Chinese sites bullshiting their ass off. Then somehow Western media caught onto this and used it against China in the China threat campaign. Somehow even Pentagon got hold onto this and used it as a tool to get more money from the congress and to further boost the China threat stigma.
We can't just assume something is real without hard evidence. For example, J-20 is real, no one can doubt it. WZ-10 is real.
Chinese cruise missiles are real. Even the X-37-like vehicle is real, because we have confirmed it from un-CG/PS'ed pictures. What hard evidences can be made on the MIRV? Perhaps even DF-21 anti carrier missile and JL-2?
You can't even find credible Chinese academic articles on them.
