Milley said that the United States, too, is “clearly experimenting, and testing and developing technologies to include hypersonics, artificial intelligence, robotics — a whole wide range” and that the test reflects just one weapon system on China’s side. “The Chinese weapon capabilities are much greater than that,” he said, referring to growing capability in space, cyberspace and traditional domains of land, sea and air. “They’re expanding rapidly.”
