Gen. Chance Saltzman highlighted the alarming pace at which China is developing military space capabilities, stating, 'The number of different categories of space weapons that [China has] created… is very threatening.' This underscores a significant shift in the balance of military power in space, with China rapidly advancing and threatening US interests.
Saltzman expressed that he is more concerned about China's advancements in space technology than the potential threat from Russian nuclear weapons. He stated, 'China's progress in military space technology posed a bigger challenge than possible Russian nuclear weapons in orbit.' This indicates a strategic reassessment of threats to US national security.
