Silent but Deadly: China Modular ICBM Launcher 2025 Tech Revealed
Chinese researchers have unveiled a modular electric ICBM launcher prototype with 'crab walk' mobility and near-silent operation, enhancing stealth and survivability in complex terrains.
It's massive, yet it moves like a ghost. Chinese researchers have developed an intelligent, electric-drive heavy vehicle designed to serve as a mobile launcher for intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs). Unlike traditional lumbering launchers, this new tech can 'crab walk' through tight spots and operates in near-silence, making it a nightmare for enemy surveillance.
Next-Gen Stealth: China Modular ICBM Launcher 2025 Capabilities
According to reports, the fully modular vehicle isn't just about hauling heavy loads; it's about survivability. By utilizing electric motors, the vehicle achieves near-silent operation, significantly improving its stealth abilities against acoustic sensors. The 'crab walk' capability allows it to navigate terrain that would normally be impassable for conventional Transporter Erector Launchers (TELs).
The project moved at a lightning-fast pace. After receiving approval in January 2024, the team unveiled a working prototype in Beijing on December 21, 2025. This rapid development cycle suggests that China is prioritizing the modernization of its nuclear triad mobility to counter advanced detection technologies.
