China reportedly tested a new nuclear-capable intercontinental ballistic (ICBM) missile earlier this month, signaling a shift in Beijing’s nuclear posturing, defense officials revealed.

The Chinese military tested a DF-5C missile carrying ten inert warheads at Taiyuan Space Launch Center in Shanxi Province. The missile is a new variation of the DF-5, an ICBM that first went into service in the early 1980s.

The test was monitored by U.S. intelligence agencies, officials told the Washington Free Beacon.

“The [Department of Defense] routinely monitors Chinese military developments and accounts for [People’s Liberation Army] capabilities in our defense plans,” Pentagon spokesman Commander Gary Ross stressed to reporters.
