On September 3, 2025, China rolled out its entire nuclear triad in Tiananmen Square, like a kid showing off the newest toys at a family BBQ. Featuring missiles with names cooler than your sci-fi playlist—DF-61, JL-3 sub-launched, and the debutant JL-1 air-launched bomb-thing—Beijing bragged about joining the US, Russia, and India’s exclusive 'we shoot big stuff from everywhere' club. Xi Jinping’s grand plan to hit 1,000 warheads by 2030 was hailed as an 'important milestone,' probably for bragging rights at the global playground. Meanwhile, experts debate if having all three delivery modes is prestige or just nuclear fashion week.
