China Appears to Be Building New Silos for Nuclear Missiles, Researchers Say – WSJ

By Thomas A. Smith

HONG KONG Satellite imagery appeared to show China building a new network of silos for launching nuclear missiles, a U.S. think tank said, the second such project that American analysts have accused Beijing of advancing in recent weeks.

In a report released Monday, a pair of researchers at the Federation of American Scientists said they found what they characterized as continuing efforts to build a missile-silo field in China s northwestern frontier region of Xinjiang, after reviewing commercial satellite imagery.

I wonder if any of the missiles have bio-weapon warheads.
