China Possesses More Land-Based Intercontinental-Range Missile Launchers Than US

China possesses more land-based intercontinental-range ballistic missile launchers than the United States, the Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday, citing a report by the US Strategic Command (STRATCOM) to Congress.

The number of land-based fixed and mobile intercontinental ballistic missile launchers in China exceeds the number of such launchers in the United States, the report cited STRATCOM as saying to the US House and Senate Armed Services Committees.

The report also cited US officials that many of China's land-based launchers allegedly still have empty silos.
