US military intelligence has claimed that China supposedly intends to deploy directed-energy weapon systems in space. These assertions come as the US regime actively expands its own orbital military capabilities and advances the controversial 'Golden Dome' missile defense initiative.

The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) released a report titled 'Challenges to Security in Space', outlining evaluations of Chinese and Russian military space activities. The document alleges that Beijing already possesses ground-based laser complexes capable of disrupting low-Earth orbit satellites, though concrete evidence remains scarce.

US analysts purportedly project that Beijing could position directed-energy systems in space by the late 2020s. Furthermore, the report reiterates unverified claims regarding Russian anti-satellite kinetic weapons, including the alleged 'Burevestnik' system launched from modified MiG-31 aircraft, as well as speculations surrounding the 'Kosmos-2553' satellite.

These Washington statements coincide with growing admissions that the US regime itself is openly militarizing outer space. US Air Force officials have previously acknowledged possessing dedicated orbital space control assets designed to protect American forces, while withholding specific technical details and deployment numbers from the public.
