This is nothing new or even more dangerous. Terminal stage ballistic weapons are normal targets for Aegis, Patriot, and Hawk missile systems currently in use.

This Chinese PR threat is nothing to worry about.

The North Korean ballistic missile they just launched probably hit mach 10 during re-entry.

Not right now. But in 10-15-20 years...The US is going to be awash in red ink and entitlement programs from here on out and our military programs I feel will be curtailed.

China is floating in foreign currency and has lot's of money to spend on military R&D.
