Typhon missile system armed with Tomahawks. It can already field the SM-6 anti air/anti ship missile and eventually the 1,000 mile Tomahawk Block V Maritime Strike Missile.

Clearly Russian analysts should have been thinking more about Ukraine and less about the PLA.

I'm already reading that they could try to get the missile up to 1000km range.

The Army is setting up 5 layers of long range precision fires:

1- Long Range Hypersonic Weapon Dark Eagle

2- Typhon with Tomahawk and SM-6 missiles

3- Precision Strike Missile

4- GMLRS-Extended Range Rockets

5- M1299 Extended Range Self Propelled Artillery

US can not afford to leg behind. They are on. India is going relatively faster. China is hyping their capabilities as usual.

A lot of hot air blowing around lately.

Yet the US feels so inscure, being 5000 km away from China.

YES SUPAPAWA HINDUTVA NUMBA ONE!!

I'm sure that Indian missile will reach faster than light speed when you fuel it with cow piss and copium.

I worry about US, by 2040 it would be a shadow of what it is now. It's days of being top dog is numbered. Just look at the Arleigh Burke / Ticonderoga ships. They are old, rusty compared to 055/052D. US has lost it's manufacturing capacity long back, they are in no position to compete against China, specially near Taiwan.
