153 - China’s “Dirt‑Cheap” Missiles: Are We Being Out-Innovated, Out-Spent, or Out-Foxed?
from The NIDS View
Curtis and Jim break down reports of a new Chinese-made concrete-skinned hypersonic glide vehicle—the YKJ-1000—and discuss what ultra-low-cost offensive systems could mean for global stability, deterrence, missile defense, and democratic acquisition cycles. From swarm concepts and strategic messaging to purchase‑power parity, and U.S. counter-moves.
