Washington Free Beacon: Pacom Nominee: China Military Islands Now Control South China Sea
Admiral urges rapid U.S. buildup of hypersonic and medium-range missiles to counter China threat

Additionally, the command nominee Adm. Philip Davidson told the Senate Armed Services Committee in a written statement this week that the military urgently needs hypersonic and other advanced weaponry to defeat China's People's Liberation Army in a future conflict.
