With a range exceeding <strong>13,000 km<\/strong>, it can strike the <strong>US and Europe<\/strong> with devastating force. Analysts estimate its payload at <strong>3\u20134 megatons<\/strong>, nearly 200 times the Hiroshima bomb. The DF-5C strengthens China\u2019s <strong>nuclear deterrence<\/strong> and fuels concerns over its second-strike capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">YJ-17: Hypersonic Anti-Ship Threat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>China also showcased the <strong>YJ-17<\/strong>, a next-generation anti-ship missile. Equipped with a <strong>hypersonic glide vehicle<\/strong>, it can reach speeds above <strong>Mach 5<\/strong> and evade interception. Designed to threaten <strong>aircraft carriers<\/strong> and naval fleets, the YJ-17 highlights Beijing\u2019s efforts to reshape the balance of power in the <strong>Pacific Ocean<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CJ-20A and LY-1: Expanding Strike and Defence Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>CJ-20A air-launched cruise missile<\/strong>, deployed from H-6K bombers, extends China\u2019s strike range to <strong>2,500 km<\/strong>. This precision weapon targets high-value assets deep in enemy territory.<br>Meanwhile, the <strong>LY-1 high-energy laser weapon<\/strong> represents China\u2019s leap into <strong>directed-energy warfare<\/strong>, capable of disabling drones, missiles, and surveillance systems \u2014 a potential game-changer in contested maritime zones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drones and Underwater Warfare<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The parade also featured advanced unmanned systems. Ship-launched drones and the <strong>HSU-100 unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV)<\/strong> highlighted China\u2019s growing focus on <strong>autonomous warfare<\/strong>. The HSU-100 is reportedly capable of deep-sea reconnaissance and maritime operations, giving the Chinese navy an edge in undersea dominance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Global Reactions and Strategic Implications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The event reinforced concerns in <strong>Washington, Tokyo, and European capitals<\/strong> about China\u2019s growing military assertiveness. With <strong>Taiwan tensions, South China Sea disputes, and China\u2019s alignment with Russia and North Korea<\/strong>, the parade projected unity and readiness for future conflicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/China Showcases Nuclear Missile, 200-Times More Powerful Than Hiroshoma Atom Bomb\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China marked the 80th anniversary of its World War II victory with a massive military parade at Beijing\u2019s Tiananmen Square.
