China's development of modern modes of warfare, including military uses of outer space and cyberspace, has yielded impressive gains that require U.S. vigilance, experts told a congressional panel.
hina's development of modern modes of warfare including military uses of outer space and cyberspace have yielded impressive gains that require U.S. vigilance, experts told a congressional panel Thursday.
The officials and security analysts told the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission that China's military modernization also raises alarms because the communist government in Beijing remains secretive about its intentions.
China's test-firing of a ballistic missile that pulverized one of its own satellites about 537 miles above Earth was not a surprise because it was Beijing's third attempt, Gen. James Cartwright, commander of the U.S. Strategic Command, said.
But he told the commission the much-criticized Jan. 11 anti-satellite test was "impressive how quickly they got the capability" and "should be a wake up call to others" about the systems China is pursuing in outer space.
"They have fielded a wide range of jamming and anti-satellite capabilities," Cartwright told a hearing in Washington a day after China called for a treaty to stop the spread of weapons in outer space.
In cyber warfare, China also had a well-organized program and "a long-term view, not a short-term view, in this activity and it will pay off," he said.
