China's secretive spaceplane likely testing 'dual use' technology, experts say
China's reusable, uncrewed spacecraft, which launches and lands at secret military sites, is likely testing technology but could also manipulate or retrieve satellites, experts suggest. Observations of the spacecraft’s maneuvers hint at military applications, including inspecting or disabling enemy objects. Similar to the U.S.'s Boeing X-37B, China's spaceplane, shrouded in secrecy, could have dual uses in national security. Despite its unclear purpose, its potential to interfere with satellites has raised global military interest and concern, especially from India.
