China's Seabed Missile Launch System: New Submarine Warfare Capabilities Emerge

• China is developing a marine weapon system combining advanced ocean-floor mapping with seabed missile launches.
• Chinese scientists successfully tested a solid rocket engine ignition at 200 meters underwater, deeper than typical submarine launches.
• This technology could significantly expand Beijing's strategic missile launch facilities, enhancing its deterrence capabilities.
• The research involved a deep-water environment simulation platform to test engine performance under high pressure.
• Findings published in 'Tactical Missile Technology' could inform next-generation deep-sea weapon systems design.
