The superpowers will now fight in space, not on Earth. America and China are building such satellites that can track enemy satellites. They can approach and attack and destroy them. A secret space mission by China has now increased America’s concerns. And the impact of this space war may also affect India in the future.
In June, a small satellite was sent into space from a secret Chinese pilotless spaceplane. This satellite first orbited another Chinese satellite. Then it again moved towards the spaceplane. According to data from space tracking company LeoLabs, this type of movement gives a big signal about China’s space war preparations. Which is a direct threat to America.
The role of satellite warfare has increased significantly in today’s times. It is used for communication, navigation and intelligence. If the enemy’s satellite is disabled, then its army will be disabled in a way. Along with this, the enemy’s location and intelligence will also be available. That is why America and China are now going to weaponize satellites. These satellites can approach other spacecraft, inspect them, track them and if necessary, destroy them. And the biggest thing is that these satellites can be kept active in space for a long time through refueling technology.
The future of the space war between America and China will fall on India. India will pose a threat to national security, economy and strategic sovereignty. China is rapidly expanding its intelligence satellite network. Through reusable rockets, China is gaining the ability to quickly replace satellites destroyed during the war. China can share its advanced satellite technology and secret information with Pakistan. This could upset India’s military balance on both fronts. Moreover, a space war between the US and China poses a serious and direct threat to India’s national security, economy, and strategic sovereignty.
