America has acquired such missile power, how will China rise in Indo-Pacific now? Dragon’s arrogance over Taiwan is over!

Washington. The US has proved it can shoot down ballistic missiles from Guam, sending a strong message to China amid the possibility of a Taiwan war. This month, The War Zone reported that the U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA) successfully intercepted a ballistic missile for the first time live off Guam on December 10, marking a significant milestone in the development of the Aegis Guam system. The War Zone reported that in a test flight called Flight Experiment Mission-02 (FEM-02), the Standard Missile-3 Block IIA successfully intercepted a simulated intermediate-range ballistic missile 200 nautical miles north-east. This testing is an important step towards providing 360-degree security for Guam, which is a strategic outpost in the Indo-Pacific region. The Aegis Guam system, which includes a tilting MK 41 Vertical Launch System (VLS), is different from other Aegis Ashore systems, allowing greater flexibility in missile launch angles, the report said. It also said that the AN/TPY-6 radar was used in the test, which demonstrates the integrated air and missile defense capability being developed for Guam. The effort is part of a broader initiative to strengthen Guam’s defense against potential threats from China, which is rapidly expanding its ballistic missile stockpile. It refers to the creation of the Guam Defense System by the MDA (Missile Defense Agency), which aims to establish a robust, multi-level defense network involving various US military units and regional allies to protect this critical asset in the event of war. Can be protected. Apart from this, to defeat China on every front, Guam will also deploy the Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS), which will connect different radar and missile assets into an organized network. This will help in removing the weaknesses of the American missile defense system. Tags: China, United StatesFIRST PUBLISHED : December 13, 2024, 18:51 IST
