U.S. Military Moves to Stay Ahead of China’s Tech
U.S. News & World Report writes that “Secretary of Defense Ash Carter said Friday the U.S. military has lost some of its technological edge against China, but he is optimistic that his department’s new investments and innovation efforts will ensure ‘the U.S. military remains the best.’”
“Carter said during a conference hosted by Defense One in Washington, D.C., that China ‘has improved its economy, the standard of living of its people. And with that comes an advance in its military capabilities, there’s no question.’”
“’We are always watching the deterrent equation there,’ Carter said.”
