For those of us not in the know who can’t fathom what a good number would be, isn’t this a bit low for China? I would’ve thought they could build way more than that much earlier
I mean yeah, no American weapons firm has the skill to make one, and we don’t go to war with countries that can defend themselves (until Iran, which Trump probably would have avoided if he’d known they could defend themselves and take control of the strait)
I’m guessing China probably doesn’t make more because they’re not planning on just eternally going to war and don’t need that much
These would be like the equivalent of US Tomahawk missiles. The demon cracker nation has an estimated 3,000+ (1,000 fired at Iran) putting the stockpile fairly low. Production of these is about 90 per year. It’s also extremely more expensive to make the Tomahawk missiles ($3 million per). Also, China’s grip on cobalt, gallium, germanium, antimony, and other key minerals has hurt the supply chains needed to produce these.
So yeah, the demon cracker nation kind of panicking.

These are just hypersonic missiles. Meanwhile the US doesn’t have a single one.

Yeah, you don’t need to have an unlimited supply when you focus on building bridges, not burning them.
