Default Chinese test Anti-Satellite weapon

This is why we need to continue are start wars program. We most likely
helped in this technology as we had it in 1985 when an F-15
successfully downed a satelite over northern Canada. The Chinese are
working on this tech, and I suppose the Russians too. But it can be a
good thing as more and more kooks try to get their own nukes, ie North
Korea and Iran. If Iran gets nukes and launches one into Isreal, what
do you think will happen.

The way to negate the threat is to target the launch facility or better
yet just the pad used as to lessen the aftershock after a B-2 attack.
Just make sure to use a bomber and not a conventional tipped ICBM as it
could make China very nervous and wonder about it being a MIRV and
lauch their nukes on a raid warning. Does anyone know if China has a
credible satellite missile launch warning system? They might have spies
based around our ICBM missile fields to call home if we launch but if a
boomer opens up on them from the Pacific are they going to see the
missiles comming before its to late to return fire? We could probably
arrange an attack in such a way to ensure that a boomer is to far away
from the sea lanes for anyone to see the rocket plume as it goes up.
Just so the Russians don't warn China which they might not as China
might figure what the hell if we are getting nuked anyway we should
ensure that Russia doesn't come in after we have been crippled and nuke
the ones who warned them too.
