The trajectory of China’s ballistic missile R&amp;D and production shows a gradual transition from copying and reproducing first-generation Soviet ballistic-missile technologies to adapting and modifying smaller, mobile, solid-propellant ballistic missiles and their follow-on second-generation systems. China is now an independent producer and technological innovator of selected missile systems and related aerospace technologies.
中国弹道导弹的研究发展和生产向我们展示了这样一个历程：从仿制第一代苏联弹道导弹技术，到改进和更新那些体积更小，具备机动性且由固体燃料推进的弹道导弹以及随后研发的第二代技术。如今在特定的导弹系统和相关航空航天技术方面，中国已经成为一个独立的生产者和技术革新者。
