The US Department of Defense on Tuesday to the Chinese military and security development report submitted to Congress on Tuesday pointed out that in the past two years, China has almost doubled the number of nuclear warheads.China began to "accelerate the expansion of nuclear arsenal" last year, and it is expected to have 1,500 nuclear warheads by 2035.

(Washington Composite Electric) The US Department of Defense estimates that China currently has more than 400 nuclear warheads. If the existing expansion speed continues, the Chinese nuclear warhead may reach 1,500 by 2035.

The U.S. Department of Defense on Tuesday (November 29) to Congress China Military and Security Development Report pointed out that China has almost doubled the number of nuclear warheads in the past two years.China began to "accelerate the expansion of nuclear arsenal" last year, and it is expected to have 1,500 nuclear warheads by 2035.

The number of Chinese nuclear warheads is far lower than that of Russia and the United States

The

Report also pointed out that China has worked hard to achieve the modernization of ballistic missiles and conducted about 135 missile tests last year.If the ballistic missile launched in conflicts in various places is excluded, this number exceeds the sum of other parts of the world.The Chinese army also continues to build three intercontinental ballistic missile launch venues, which will include at least 300 new intercontinental ballistic missile launch wells.

Washington regards China as a country that has potential for the United States. However, the number of Chinese nuclear warheads is still far lower than Russia and the United States.According to data from the Stockholm Institute of International Peace (SIPRI) in Sweden, Russia has 5977 nuclear warheads, the United States has about 3,700, and the total nuclear warheads in Russia and the United States account for about 90 % of the total world.

The senior official told reporters in the Pentagon: "Although we have not seen the attacking Taiwan forced, it is obvious that the high -pressure intimidation and coercion around Taiwan is worrying."
