New Chinese missile technology, such as anti-ship ballistic missiles, hypersonic weapons, and the proliferation of ballistic missile systems poses a growing threat to U.S. interests in INDOPACOM and challenge existing missile defense systems. A missile warning/missile warning integrated architecture is necessary to ensure the U.S. is poised to counter a Chinese missile attack in the South China Sea. This paper explores China's increasing offensive missile capability, current U.S. missile warning/missile defense architectures, and advocates for integration of strategic and tactical warning systems as well as allies and partners.
