China is developing an unmanned trimaran submarine capable of launching hypersonic anti-ship missiles with a range of 2,000 km, posing a significant threat to the U.S. Navy. This autonomous vessel, identified through satellite images, can carry 16-18 YJ-20 missiles, which may reach speeds of Mach 9. The submarine can stealthily surface in the Pacific, strike American naval targets, and retreat underwater. Such hypersonic missiles are challenging for U.S. carrier strike groups to intercept due to their high speed and maneuverability. If China builds a fleet of these drones, it could force U.S. forces to stay away from its coast, increasing tensions in the Pacific.
