China’s military uses target shaped like US aircraft carrier group in desert, report says
Fox News
The Chinese military built full-scale targets of U.S. warships -- including an aircraft carrier -- in the middle of a desert in Northwest China known for ballistic missile testing, according to a report.
The Pentagon and China’s defense ministry did not immediately respond to after-hours emails from Fox News. The report said that the targets appeared to have an outline of a carrier and at least two Arleigh Burke-class destroyers.
The satellite images were released at a time that tension between the two countries remains high over Taiwan. The U.S. frequently sails warships through Taiwan Strait that draw rebukes from Beijing. China’s insistence on flying sorties toward Taiwan has also increased the tension in the region.
USNI News, citing the intelligence company All Source Analysis, reported that the complex in the desert has been used for ballistic missile testing in the past. There also appears to be an extensive rail system in the location so these structures can presumably move.
