Chinese Rocket Force

The PLA Rocket Force has emerged as the backbone of China’s modern military power—and its most consequential strategic signal to the world. Chinese Rocket Force is a Military Intelligence Report that decodes how Beijing is transforming missiles into its primary instrument of deterrence, coercion, and warfighting dominance.

Anchored in President Xi Jinping’s high-profile visit to a Rocket Force brigade, the report analyses the political and military messaging behind China’s accelerated missile modernisation. It examines the scale of the arsenal—thousands of conventionally armed missiles alongside a rapidly expanding nuclear force—and highlights key systems such as the DF-31AG intercontinental ballistic missile, capable of threatening U.S. bases in the Pacific and potentially the U.S. mainland.

The analysis situates the Rocket Force within China’s broader strategy toward Taiwan, the South China Sea, the Korean Peninsula, and U.S. forward presence in Asia. It explains how improved accuracy, mobility, and survivability are reshaping regional security calculations, complicating missile defence, and raising escalation risks. Beyond hardware, the report assesses internal political control, loyalty enforcement within the PLA, and Xi’s consolidation of command over strategic forces.

Built for policymakers, defence professionals, analysts, investors, and national security institutions, this product converts missile deployments into strategic foresight.

Missile forces rarely posture without purpose. Following Global Eye Intelligence ensures you recognise how deterrence is being rewritten—before capability demonstrations harden into irreversible strategic realities.
