India recently performed an anti-satellite test, making it the fourth country with this capacity after America, Russia and China.
Chinese military expert Fang Bing said India has just stepped into the door of anti-satellite and used proximity destruction instead of KKV which has low possibilities of interception.
And India’s this test on top of an anti-missile test before shows that India is trying to show strength amid India-Pakistan collisions and upcoming domestic election.
Especially in face of previous military defeats of jet fighters of submarines, India has to show something that Pakistan isn’t capable of, and aircraft carrier formation, nuclear submarines and anti-satellite capacity are some of them.
