China Tested an Earth-Circling Hypersonic Missile, FT Reports

THREAD

China tested a nuclear-capable hypersonic missile that circled the globe before speeding toward its target, the Financial Times reported Saturday, citing people familiar with the event.
The test in August showed China has made more progress on hypersonic weapons than U.S. officials realized, according to the report, which didn’t identify the people familiar with the test.

/1
The missile missed its target, and the test doesn’t necessarily mean China will deploy such a weapon, the Financial Times said. The newspaper said the U.S. Department of Defense declined to comment on its report.

Bureaucracy in 🇵🇰 Military Industries (Margala Electronics - ME)

Based in Islamabad, the establishment was created in 198t to manufacture ground radar. The birth of Margala Electronics (ME) was more a result of bureaucratic/organizational tensions and manipulations

than strategic needs. As a result, in night to ten years only 40 radars were assembled.

There was no read indigenous production done there. The facility was to attain a "deletion" target of 70% by 1094. Though a whole section was created for the purpose,
