US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper says that China and Russia have weaponized space through killer satellites and directed energy weapons designed to exploit and weaken the US military.
The Department of Defense [DoD] sees its adversaries advancing their military technologies, and so it is doubling down on its own.

Original article says “are developing directed energy weapons to exploit U.S. systems” not “have developed”.
And yet Netflix continues to think President Trump’s “Space Force” is a joke. There were probably people like them laughing at the idea that Japan would have the technology to attack our modern Navy in 1941.
If they have now, then we did 15 years ago. And I’m really good with that.
He is quoted as saying they have. Here is a video in the first link of him saying it:

Sometimes I think Trump is subtly trying to trigger the CCP.
No that sounds pretty insane actually.
And honestly I don’t like the term White lives matter any more than I like black lives matter.
But to each his own :-)
“US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper says that China and Russia have weaponized space through killer satellites and directed energy weapons designed to exploit and weaken the US military. “
TRUE. But so have we. And it was done back in the late 70’s. The Russians did a test over the US and shot down one of their own dead satellites. I watched the test. The FAA monitored it. The scientist who built the weapon defected to the US and helped us build a similar weapon.
Yeah? So Esper, what are you going to do about it?
That’s Mig-31D and a 79M6 missile.
USAF had similar setup with hot rodded F-15 by 1985.
If there is a direct energy weapon it seems like the one radiating Esper’s tinfoil hat.
