The Chinese are learning to sink American ships. Yesterday, November 7, on the website of the Naval Institute of the US Navy, information appeared that models of an American aircraft carrier and destroyers appeared in the Taklamakan desert (Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region).

Satellite images from Maxar Technologies show several objects simulating American ships. In particular, a railway line was discovered in the desert, on which there is a movable model of the ship. Given that all the targets are located on the territory of the landfill, where the Chinese military has repeatedly tested ballistic missiles, it is not difficult to guess their purpose.

Earlier, Iran had repeatedly practiced destroying the "American aircraft carrier". The defeat of the mockups allows US opponents to hone their skills in destroying American ships, as well as test new weapons.
