I mean to some extent they see it, that's why they haven't attacked yet. They just don't realize it enough to not fully stand down.

Don't underestimate the unconscious racism. I suspect many at some level in the US remain skeptical that the Chinese weapons really work as well as claimed, due to this racism. Just think of how prior to WWII, Western aviation specialists and military figures were skeptical of Japanese airplanes and aviation, due to the racist belief that Asians had poor eyesight and therefore could not possibly design good airplanes or be good pilots. They were therefore shocked upon first contact with the Japanese Zero fighter.
I think their views of the DF-41 and other Chinese weapon systems are similarly influenced by this unconscious racism so they find it difficult to believe what data they do have and have an inclination to believe the data is exaggerated.
Lol
Lmao
It's only a matter of time until a pink-haired, blue-nailed dude flying an F-22 nukes Moscow. Then the world will be at peace.
Anyone knows when 2024 DOD report on China is coming out? I wanna read how they cope with recent developments lol
That's like saying they don't see Chinese drones blowing up all their tanks in Ukraine.
They see it, there's nothing they can do about it, so they either pretend to not see it to save face, or ignore it and hope for the best out of desperation.
People do incredibly stupid and self defeating things when desperate, China should make sure their desperation are well rewarded.
Didn't they learn from Gaza how they broke ceasefire? You're dealing with an entity that has neither honor nor respect for normal human conventions.
I think the takes here vis-a-vis Dong Jun are too optimistic. Mao Ning's “shadow-chasing”（捕风捉影 ）doesn't explicitly denies it.
Perhaps it's just a rumour reported by FT, sure. But then it should be treated like a rumour, to be confirmed and also kept in mind.

It's not wrong to say you can't be a China hawk and Russia dove at the same time, that boat has sailed long ago.
Sometimes you're just f*ed and there's nothing you can do about it.
