The CCP could put 12” long Kamikaze drones in space. Pack them into a mother ship that a CCP rocket puts into orbit.
The drones use tiny thrusters to “fly” and maneuver

The story about Chinese satellites maneuvering in orbit has been reported in the news.

Seruga is still a phony. He works in real estate, not data or intelligence.

Given China’s overall posture towards the US, I would like to see Trump order all Chinese citizens to leave America within n days.

We’ve already got a surveillance platform and possibly a weapons platform in this little toughie. Able to change altitude for evasion, long duration capability and reusable.

Low Earth orbit is NOT “space”.

"The 1967 Outer Space Treaty, which prohibits placing nuclear weapons in orbit, faces growing challenges as major powers develop technologies that exploit ambiguities in existing agreements. Military analysts warn that the absence of clear enforcement mechanisms and verification protocols creates dangerous opportunities for nations seeking military advantages in space."

Seems to me that Clint and the writers of this film think that treaty was violated long ago and the aging out of technicians can be as much a threat as the presence of the weapons themselves. It's something to not think about.
