BEIJING — U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates says China’s rapidly developing defense capabilities worry the United States.
China has made strides in building a new stealth fighter jet, and Washington is also concerned about a new ballistic missile that could theoretically explode a U.S. aircraft carrier nearly 2,000 miles out to sea. China has also apparently beaten U.S. estimates to develop that weapon.
Gates arrived Sunday in Beijing for talks about the weapons and other military issues.
