Russia and China have both tested powerful, advanced missile systems capable of taking out targets in outer space, including U.S. satellites.
The Russian Ministry of Defense announced Monday that Russia tested an upgrade for its A-135 anti-ballistic missile system, a sophisticated missile shield designed to block Moscow from air and space attacks, in Kazakhstan.
Major General Andrei Prikhodko, deputy commander of the Russian air force’s air and missile defense task force, told Russian Ministry of Defense newspaper Krasnaya Zvezda that the system “successfully accomplished the task and engaged the conventional target at the assigned time.”
