Analysts missed Chinese buildup
Among the failures highlighted in the study are:
China's development of a new long-range cruise missile.
The deployment of a new warship equipped with a stolen
Chinese version of the U.S. Aegis battle management
technology.
The Aegis style Type052C DDG170
Deployment of a new attack submarine known as the Yuan class that
was missed by U.S. intelligence until photos of the submarine
appeared on the Internet.
Development of precision-guided munitions, including new
air-to-ground missiles and new, more accurate warheads.
China's development of surface-to-surface missiles for targeting
U.S. aircraft carrier battle groups.
The importation of advanced weaponry, including Russian
submarines, warships and fighter-bombers.
According to officials familiar with the intelligence report, the
word "surprise" is used more than a dozen times to describe U.S.
failures to anticipate or discover Chinese arms development.
Partial of the report is included in the Pentagon's annual report
to Congress on the Chinese military, which was due out March 1 but
delayed by interagency disputes over its contents.
Thats interesting, lets wait the full report comes out and see
more details.
