1 CHINA S FUTURE NUCLEAR FORCE INFRASTRUCTURE NOTIONAL BREAKOUT SCENARIO Mark A. Stokes East Asian Alternative Nuclear Weapons Futures Workshop Stanford University November 20-21, 2013
2 Overview Scenario Assumptions Baseline Force Structure Strategic Drivers and Operational Requirements Acquisition Management Warhead Engineering R&D and Production Infrastructure Notional Operational Infrastructure in Breakout Scenario Conclusions
3 Scenario Assumptions Current inventory of 250 nuclear warheads CMC entrusts Second Artillery Force as sole PLA warhead custodian Centralized storage and handling under Second Artillery central warhead storage and handling complex in central China (Base 22) Domestic political considerations are primary factors determining size of arsenal security more important than operational effectiveness Concealment of actual warhead inventory size allows for minimal number Small number of warheads available under each of six corps-level missile base At least one warhead is programmed, produced, and supplied for each nuclear-capable missile Breakout scenario of 1500 warheads by 2025 Parallel surge in production of missile systems and other delivery vehicles Expansion of CAEP industrial capacity No fissile material constraints Adjustments within a static PLA organizational structure

13 Strategic Drivers and Operational Requirements Why Would the Politburo/CMC Want an Expanded Nuclear Force? Political Rush to Parity? Bureaucratic politics/military parochialism? Defense industry push? Threat perception, calculated deterrence/counter-coercion, and/or or doctrinal shift? Technology push?
14 Acquisition Management Who Would Be Responsible for Planning, Programming, and Equipping an Expanded Force Structure? Second Artillery Equipment Department manages missile system acquisition programs based on broad CMC and General Armaments Department (GAD) policy guidance Five-seven research institutes under Second Artillery Equipment Research Academy responsible for conceptual design, program validation, proof of concept, etc Second Research Institute appears to be responsible for warhead-related electronic components and safety issues New strategic planning office Defense industry military representative system Role of operational test and evaluation (OT&E) units CASC First Academy Design Department Large solid motors: Nuclear Warhead: Re-entry vehicle structures: Guidance, nav, control system: Final Assembly: Defense Industrial Engineering R&D System CASC Fourth Academy CAEP CASC First Academy14th RI CASC First Academy 12 th RI CASC First Academy 211 Factory CASIC Fourth Academy Design Department Medium-diameter solid motors: Nuclear Warhead: Re-entry vehicle structures: Guidance, nav, control system: Final Assembly: CASIC Sixth Academy or 066 Base CAEP CASC First Academy14th RI CASIC Fourth Academy 17 th RI CASIC Fourth Academy 307 Factory
15 Acquisition Management Who Would Be Responsible for Planning, Programming, and Equipping an Expanded Force Structure? GAD oversees technology development and manages acquisition of nuclear warheads as a major missile sub-system GAD S&T Committee as senior CMC advisory group on defense technology S&T Committee director carries grade equal to a military region leader GAD S&T Committee Expert Working Groups: Nuclear weapons technology Testing technology Nuclear safety 863 Program Expert Working Groups : Inertial Confinement Fusion GAD Services Department Second Artillery Bureau (Nuclear Technology Bureau) GAD 21 Base (63650 Unit; Malan Special Weapons Test Base) Northwest Institute of Nuclear Technology

19 Notional Operational Infrastructure in Breakout Scenario Expansion of operational infrastructure Current conventional force structure as model: three launchers per company Limited number of new brigades equipped with mobile MIRV d ICBM Expansion and delegation of warhead storage and handling responsibilities to base level Base 22 as reserve depot Expansion of missile (CASC/CASIC) and warhead (CAEP) final assembly plants (and supply chain) CASC 211 Factory/CASIC 307 Factory CAEP Sichuan Institute of Materials Processing (Seventh Institute/903 Factory) Larger arsenal = greater transparency?
20 Conclusions/Other Considerations Extended range dual capable ballistic and land attack cruise missiles Expanded range variants of DF-21C and/or new model Navy and Air Force Nuclear Capabilities Air- and possible sub-launched launched land attack cruise missiles Type 094 sub and JL-2 SLBM: who controls the warheads? Future PLA Strategic Command? Increasingly complex missile defense countermeasures On-board jammers Hypersonic cruise vehicles Reduced radar cross section Maneuvering re-entry vehicles Greater lethality Fourth generation nuclear weapons Tailored warheads for hard and/or deeply buried targets High powered microwave or other radiofrequency warhead Multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs) Probable MIRV variant of silo-based DF-5 (DF-5B) Possible new solid fueled, road mobile intercontinental ballistic missile
