US-China Tensions: B-2 Bombers on 24/7 Combat Duty, DF-26 Missiles in Position
The US dispatched three B-2 strategic bombers back to their base in Hawaii, while China deployed DF-26 "ship killer" missiles to the northwest plateau and desert.
B-2 Spirit strategic bombers have been ordered back to Hawaii to strengthen US military power in the Indo-Pacific region. The B-2 deployment comes amid ongoing US-China tensions over trade and maritime disputes.
With a range of 4,500 km, the DF-26, dubbed the "ship killer", is now considered a threat to Andersen Air Force Base if a military conflict between the US and China occurs.
