Important Takeaways:
- Russia’s Hypersonic Strike on Ukraine’s Patriot Missiles is a Very Good Sign For North Korea
- On May 16, as part of a series of Russian missile strikes on the Ukrainian capital Kiev Russian Air Force, MiG-31K strike fighters launched Kh-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic ballistic missiles against Patriot air defense systems recently delivered by the United States
- The Patriot is the Western world’s premier ground-based long range air defense system, and has been widely fielded not only by NATO members the United States, Germany, Greece, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania and Spain, but also by key East Asian security partners including Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.
- The Kinzhal missile strike was confirmed by Western sources to have disabled the targeted Patriot system, with Russian sources reporting that the radar and command vehicle and five launch batteries were neutralized after firing 32 surface to air missiles to attempt to stop the incoming strike.
- The success of the Kinzhal in neutralizing Patriot batteries partly vindicates not only Russia’s massive investment in missile systems such as Iskander-Ms, but also North Korea’s placing of an even more extreme emphasis on these kinds of assets.
- North Korea has notably invested in a much wider range of launch vehicles for the KN-23, including wheeled, tracked, rail based and even submersible launchers, in contrast to the Iskander-M which has been deployed only from the Belarusian MZKT-7930 wheeled vehicle.
- North Korea can potentially similarly use the KN-23 neutralize enemy air defenses and thus leave targeted territories much more vulnerable to its wider arsenals.

Important Takeaways:
- China ‘Sprinting’ to Usurp US Superpower Status, Military Escalation Seen as Prelude to Taiwan Takeover
- A recent Pentagon report is shedding light on a military build-up in the country considered to be the greatest national security threat to the United States.
- China is conducting the largest military modernization effort in the country’s history. It’s a move that the U.S. Department of Defense believes is not only in the preparation for taking Taiwan but also for displacing the U.S. as the world’s leading superpower.

- The PRC is stealing technology from the United States and sending it directly to its military, they have strategic partnerships with Iran and Russia, and they’re looking to build new military bases around the world.
- Bowman believes the U.S. has what it takes to deter Chinese aggression, but warns that there needs to be more of a sense of urgency coming from Washington. He says that would involve immediate funding to ramp up our own military modernization efforts, and to start acquiring the weapons needed to defend democracy worldwide.
