@jordancarpenter4093 Watch out. The Pentagon ALWAYS told the world that the USSR was a dire threat and therefore the Pentagon needed yet a BIGGER budget. You'll never find any Pentagon assessment that reads any other way. Get used to it. The deal with hypersonic weapons is that they make virtually zero sense to the Pentagon, the Beltway or Congress. That's why the US let the Russians and the Red Chinese spend large while ignoring this new techno-gambit. Never forget that hypersonic warheads shrink payload and range. This is a direct consequence of flying through the upper-atmosphere instead of the vacuum of space. Of course, all IRMBs and ICBMs are hypersonic, too. Russia and Red China are launching their hypersonic warheads atop plain vanilla ICBMs -- something that the Press keeps omitting.

Red China is utterly dependent upon NATO economies. In a future non-atomic hot war, Beijing will find that no NATO nation will trade with her. Absolutely no-one will sail in defiance of the USN -- let alone the rest of NATO. Consequently, Red China will lurch into famine, one worse than anything the Kaiser saw a century ago, only matched by that of Tokyo seventy-five-years ago. But, there's nothing to worry about. After the utter implosion of Red China's real estate Ponzi, the CCP membership will be running for their lives. Recessions occur when lending to factories and for inventories craters. Depressions occur when lending to developers, contractors and for real estate craters. The latter is what Red China has just entered. Thank you Xi. You've won the Gorby.
