Wednesday, November 17, 1999, updated at 09:17(GMT+8) Sci-Tech China's Strategic Missile Corps More Capable The strategic missile corps of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) has become more capable as its missiles are more powerful and can hit targets with more precision. In the past five years, the strategic missile corps has achieved a 100 percent success rate in projecting its missiles. Launching vehicles allow missiles to be fired at any time and under any climatic and geographic conditions. Recently, the strategic missile troops carried out an on-line combined war exercise in which troops launched a counterattack with advanced missiles. In an on-screen simulation, the "Red Army" worked out a combat plan whereby they moved their new missile-launching vehicles deep into mountains and forests and carried out various kinds of anti- disturbance and anti-reconnaissance measures against enemy troops.
