China Could ‘Make Strategic Response’ 

The U.S. and Japan will discuss new weapons deployment, including medium-range missiles, Tomahawk cruise missiles and long-range hypersonic weapons, in some Japanese islands close to China’s Taiwan under the pretext of “defense”. Chinese military analysts warn that the plan poses a serious threat to regional countries including China, North Korea and Russia. The Tomahawk is a type of subsonic cruise missile, and different variants have different ranges, generally of around 2,000 kilometers.
