China carried out the first flight-tests of a new kind of ballistic missile with a hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV) in November, The Diplomat has learned.
According to a U.S. government source who described recent
intelligence assessments on the People’s Liberation Army Rocket Force
(PLARF) on the condition of anonymity, China recently conducted two
tests of a new missile known as the DF-17.
The first test took place on November 1 and the second test took
place on November 15. The November 1 test was the first Chinese
ballistic missile test to take place after the conclusion of the first
plenum of the Communist Party of China’s 19th Party Congress in October.
