China builds US warship mockups for missile target practice

Abone Ol 

China has built missile targets resembling a US aircraft carrier and two Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers, satellite images recently released by Maxar show.

Provided to the US Navy Institute news portal, the photos capture full-scale outlines of the American warships allegedly built at a target range complex in the Taklamakan Desert. The Chinese military is using the complex to conduct ballistic missile tests.

The mockups reportedly reflect Chinese efforts to improve the country’s anti-carrier capabilities amid increasing tensions between the two military powerhouses over Taiwan sovereignty and territorial disputes in the South China Sea.
