Judging by the freqency of the test, its safe to say China is close to depoly this weapon in their arsenal.
It is believed the Chinese hyper-sonic glide vehicle demonstarted significant advance in missile techs, and leave the Americans in the dust(the latter get two test, both failed, and their launch pad get destoried in the recent test make their project stalls).
The Glide trajectory vehicle follow what referened as Qian Xuesen trajeory, can achieve much longer range, with much higher accuray and much better manuerves, comparing to current ballastic missiles.
For instance, it is assumed that a glide vehicle, when try to hit static ojects, installed on a current middle-ranged missile will get a range comparable to a ICBM, which means future Chinese ICBM will get a size of current middle range missiles.
When this vehicles is to hit moving targets like a american much-hyped aircraft carrier, it will double the range of the current DF-25, which make a DF-25 with this can hit aircraft carrier 3000-5000km away from China mainland.
