U.S. stunned: New Chinese missile capable of sinking every US supercarrier

A new investigative report (ireport)by TerrenceAym has been posted to the CNN website. This new report claims that "a new 'smart missile' threatens to tip the balance of power towards China, US military analysts say."

"The latest generation of the Dong Feng 21D (DF-21D) is a supercarrier killer according to experts on China's armaments. The missile can be launched from land and strike an aircraft carrier 900 miles away."

"China has 11,200 miles of coastline. That fact coupled with the range and accuracy of the new missile could spell doom for any US or allied carrier fleet.

If you are interested in monitoring the Chinese Navy, I did an exclusive extensive profile on some of their HF communication systems in my monthly Milcom column in the October issue of Monitoring Times magazine.
