China’s ballistic missile base near Taiwan

Posted by Matt in June 5th, 2008

Satellite photos of the Leping Ballistic Missile Base in China’s southeastern province of Jiangxi show that this is a key site for the deployment of the People’s Liberation Army Air Force’s DF-15A campaign tactical missiles. The direct distance from the base to Taiwan is 700 kilometers (435 miles).

It is apparent that the striking range of the earlier version, the DF-15 ballistic SSM, has been upgraded. It also appears that the DF-15A SSMs deployed at Leping are fitted with different variants of warheads, one of which seems to have the capability to strike underground targets.

But some Australian experts warn this may be bad for Australia's national interest. Sheridan Harvey has more: STORY: As an ally of the U.S., there's a good chance Australia would come to the aid of Taiwan in case of a conflict with China. And one former senior Australian intelligence official warns that, in such a scenario, Australian sailors might have to face these ships in combat. [Sam Roggeveen, "The Interpreter" Editor]: "These catamarans, the Chinese Type 22, really their sole purpose is to sink other ships.

Missile Mistake???
US sent Taiwan missile components by mistake: Pentagon 1 day ago WASHINGTON (AFP) — The United States mistakenly sent Taiwan four fuses used in triggers for nuclear weapons in the fall of 2006 and only discovered the mistake last week, the Pentagon said Tuesday.

US Defense Secretary Robert Gates ordered an investigation into the incident and a comprehensive review of all nuclear-related components in the US inventory, senior officials said. It was the second major nuclear security breach uncovered in just over six months, following the mistaken transfer of...
