The top US general said China's test of a hypersonic weapon over the summer was 'very concerning' and that 'it has all of our attention.'

The top US general said China's test of a hypersonic weapon over the summer was"very concerning" and that"it has all of our attention."

Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley, speaking to Bloomberg Television, stopped short of calling the test a"Sputnik moment" but he did acknowledge"it's very close to that." He called the test of the weapon"a very significant technological event" that is just one element of China's military capabilities.It was the first official acknowledgment of the test from the Pentagon, which has so far declined to comment.

It sounds like a job for autonomous roving drones that shoot down hypersonic flying objects.

Wonder if this guy regrets crying about WHitE mAle RAGe in front of the committee instead of doing his damn job

Glad to see that now they have a concern outside of white rage. I just hope it is not too little too late!

Now all we gotta do his hope that their general would warn us before they launch 🤣😂😅

More or less concerning than “white rage?”

The White House press secretary said that the administration welcomes competition. This just shows how out of touch with reality the Biden administration are

Really? Did he make a friendly phone call to China to discuss his feelings about their weapon?

We need to be prepared for it!!!!!

Now milley is concerned about china? 😂😂😂🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🖕🖕🖕

No. JoeBiden POTUS said it (china hypersonic flight) good for competition. PressSec jrpsaki

Why does US feel they're the guardians of planet Earth? If a country didn't threaten another there'd be no need. However as with climate change the handful of world leaders value personal interests & power over sustainability & a habitable planet. We're nothing in the bigger pic

The autocratic regime should not have any weapons! Because if the autocratic regime has weapons, the people will be suppressed! The best time to launch a nuclear bomb against the authoritarian regime was 70 years ago, and the next best time is now.

Who to be blamed for Chinese threatening a hand which feed them ?. the answer is USA & European countries to like cheaper things from Chinese factories. at end Chinese growing in GDP & army's capabilities using money they gain from western. Chinese without western money =india

Chairman will probably give mainland China another heads up about our missile test.

China is testing missiles that could destroy us without any of our missile defense systems even knowing it’s happening…while this “General” and his ilk prefer to focus on BS woke policies within our military 🙄

What's he going to do, give china a booklet on White privilege and proper pronouns?

It's predictable that the top US general thinks that China's alleged test of a hypersonic weapon 'has all of our attention.' With the war on terror winding down, they need something to do with their $715 billion budget and a Cold War to keep themselves busy and in the green.

How about stacking nuclear explosives on own soil and threaten to blow up the whole world if someone tries to attack you? No need for faster rockets then....

Yeah, so they can spend more billions on guns we don’t need.

I thought it was hydrosonic.

We want trump back

Chinese hypersonic test like a 'Sputnik moment': top US generalThe Pentagon's top general said Wednesday that China's recent test of an earth-circling hypersonic missile was akin to the Soviet Union's stunning launch of the world's first satellite, Sputnik, in 1957, which sparked the superpowers' space race. Is there any laterally thinker who still believes MarkMilley has what it takes to think soberly & objectively? He irrationally believed Pres Trump had lost control of his mental faculty He must contemplate worst mental state of drowsy Joe binladen Biden Meanwhile in the us military.... Too bad he's more focused on all those evil white supremacist. LOL.
