The Epoch Times has reported that the two primary enemies of the United States, China and Russia, are placing “dual-use” satellites into space while masking their military applications, citing reports from the Pentagon.
“China and Russia view the U.S. as overly reliant upon space for military and information superiority. Seeking asymmetric advantages in [a] future conflict, both countries are designing, testing, and demonstrating counterspace weapons to deny, disrupt, or destroy satellites and space devices,” the military report says. “They often mask or conceal these activities to avoid international condemnation.”
