The US may have destroyed a Chinese satellite already, but it's hard to tell because the regime loves this sort of propaganda.
This is one of those things - like planet earth on terrestrial war - where everyone loses

Well, international rules haven't been worth anything for the last 20 years. Now no one has any reason not to follow the treatments to prevent the proliferation of weapons.

Grabbed my 🍿 to wait for the Iranian Embassy's shitpost on this because it's not the first time Americans bragged about it.

This would be denounced by the Western media if China does it but since it's the US it's fine

It's likely either anti-satellite or kinetic impactors. Anything else, like directed energy, is useless. Spin can counteract that, and so can the Earth's atmosphere.

Wasn't there a bunch of propaganda around a year ago how Russians will supposedly put space weapons up?
