As China Speeds Up Nuclear Arms Race, the U.S. Wants to Talk

That's why I said there's no need for talk, US is the one peddling the decades-old narrative "China only has a few hundred large DF-5A warheads" (each yield 3.3~5 megatons TNT eqv), zero MIRV strategic warheads, zero tactical, why they even bother to ask for a talk?

P.S.: Note not just DF-41 is MIRVed, so are DF-5B, DF-31AG, JL-2, etc. Only the SRBM, CM, some MRBM, smaller HGV (e.g. DF-17) and of course veteran DF-5A are single warhead config.

The expected path way of a Chinese Hypersonic Glider like the DF-17. Would you say this is accurate?

Yes, that's how HGV works, at least on China's approach i.e. using BM as delivery means at boost phase (and some extent of mid-course) then HGV performs its own maneuverable flying/gliding at near-space (high but intra-atmospheric) altitude before attack.

Outside of the Ottomans, Western military has engaged with militaries elsewhere with absolute and overwhelming technological superiority after the Mongols routed them in the 13th Century ,till today.
From the bronze-age Incas and Aztecs, to the bowmen of North America, the assegai warriors in Africa, the charging Pathan swordsmen , Dao-wielding Qing soldiers, the boomerangs of Australia to the outmatched Iraqis and Talibanis.. all were failed by their inferior weapons.
On the single occasion a non-Western nation achieved technological parity in arms ( Imperial Japan) the much vaunted Western military folded like umbrellas on contact.
So the very thought of a non-Western country achieving parity in the most powerful weapon systems ( nuclear) is making them sweat profusely. Their protests have nothing to do with safety or security, everything to do with their entitled mentality.
Towards this end they are using the media,
" leaks" , " Anonymous sources " et all to mentally prepare the Chinese to think below a figure of 1000 nuclear warheads so that they retain absolute dominance.
The Chinese I am sure has seen through this tactic. They should present a faith accompli of a minimum 5k warheads ( ie parity).. the Anglos will then lose their smug countenance and will either start behaving themselves, or bankrupt themselves trying to pile on more.
The Qing had muskets and Cannons, the Brits were using artillery and rifles. Its alrwdy the 1840s,gatling guns were already appearing.
 
China should not talk until nuclear warhead parity is reached. Nuclear weapons is the only guarantor of peace. China need to continue to advance in the development of nuclear delivery capabilities.

China will not enter into any talks regarding nukes period and the question is why would they enter into talks because the US is only doing that to hammer their competition and then cheat them everything they do is to limit the competition hence China will do the opposite here..

Talks? I mean what kind of talks we talking here mann? to reduce nuclear arsenal nobody will agree to that frankly speaking it is off the table. It is juvenile proposal
 
What is the content of the talk?
1. Reduce the number of China's nuclear warheads to the same as that of the United States.
2. Allow the United States to increase the number of nuclear warheads to as many as China.
