China's 'Starlink Killer' Microwave Tech Sparks Space Warfare Concerns

• Reports indicate Chinese researchers developed a compact, high-power microwave weapon system.
• The TPG1000Cs device, linked to Northwest Institute of Nuclear Technology, can reportedly reach 20 gigawatts peak power.
• Its compact size (4 meters, 5 tonnes) suggests potential for truck, ship, or even airborne/space deployment.
• High-power microwave attacks aim to disrupt satellite electronics without physical destruction, offering a 'non-kinetic' counterspace tool.
• The development highlights the growing 'counterspace race' as mega constellations become vital for global connectivity.
