Re: DF-41 Missile\

I think it is still developing, however, it is not necessary to show we have that in our National's Day

Oh I see... Any updates on its current status?

I hope China would start to increase its stockpiles of DF-31 series for a better nuclear deterrent capabilities.

I don't see even up to 100 to be sufficient enough. considering USA is also a big country.

Re: DF-41 Missile\

Does anybody had an idea if this missile project was still ongoing or canceled?

I hope to see China continuously develop this missile for an enhanced missile capabilities.

DF-41 was appparently cancelled many years ago. No DoD´s china annual report since 2002 has mentioned it. And there has never been recorded any test flight. Aparently it was a new project, but due to economical/technological problems, it was replaced by an upgraded DF-31, the DF-31A

Even for that was a test for a project of that level... people like us wouldnt be able to know it anyways... the chinese are always good at hiding their under the table stuff and lying about it..

Ok, Im sure CIA or the CIAA knows alot of big secrects about just any nation in the world... but that doesnt mean they would tell us or the media lol... And i doubt the medias has an intellgence branch that is skilled enough to dig something like that out... plus its not like something that everyone likes to hear anyways

Why would DoD/CIA keep secret of a chinese big weapon like a ICBM? They want to announce all that they can from china´s military in order to build up the "china threat" so that congress pump more money in to the DoD. An ICBM that can reach all the USA is the last thing that they would keep secret from the public

Plus there is a lot of media and individual interest in PLA, both chinese and foreign (the numberous blogs are a proof of that). In a sense they are an intelligence branch to the public. And its definately something that many people would want to hear (including me)

by the way, what is CIAA?

The host asked whether DF-41 would appear in the parade or not, and the deputy director from the political department of second artillery told the audience to wait and see.

In the end, DF-41 didn't appear, we only saw DF-31A.
