Washington Free Beacon: China Building Long-Range Cruise Missile Launched From Ship Container
Disguised weapon turns freighters into warships, ports to missile bases.
China is building a long-range cruise missile fired from a shipping container that could turn Beijing's large fleet of freighters into potential warships and commercial ports into future missile bases.

The missile will be deployed in launchers that appear from the outside to be standard international shipping containers used throughout the world for moving millions of tons of goods, often on the deck of large freighters.
