Beijing tests submarine-launched nukes that could OBLITERATE San Francisco from China's own waters
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] China has tested a new submarine-launched missile capable of obliterating San Francisco, an insider has revealed, in a massive boost to the country's 'deterrent'. The Chinese navy tested its state-of-the-art JL-3 missile in Bohai Bay in the Yellow Sea last month, sources said. The nuclear-capable missile has a 5,600 mile range, significantly longer than its predecessor the JL-2, which could strike targets 4,350 miles away. It means that Beijing can now carry out nuclear strikes on America's west coast from the security of its own territorial waters.
