ICBM Mines in China
In the desert in the north-west of China near the city of Yumen, US commercial satellites recorded the construction of about 120 ICBM mines. According to experts, this may mean a sharp increase in the nuclear missile potential of the PRC.
The exact number of ICBMs being deployed is unknown, but they may be much less than expected. It is possible that some of the mines under construction will remain empty in order to mislead the likely enemy.

According to the director of the Program for the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons in East Asia, Jeffrey Lewis, the total number of missile silos under construction in China today is about 145. The Celestial Empire is expanding its nuclear forces as a deterrent, which will help recover from the first US strike, strike back and guarantee to overcome the American missile defense system in the event of a military conflict. In an interview with the Post, Lewis suggested that the mines under construction are intended for Chinese DF-41 ICBMs capable of carrying several warheads with a range of almost 15,000 km. This is quite enough to launch nuclear strikes on the continental part of the United States.
