Summary:
- China is developing advanced quantum sensors that could potentially detect and track U.S. Navy nuclear submarines, which are typically difficult to detect due to their stealth capabilities.
- These quantum sensors use the principles of quantum physics to measure extremely small changes in magnetic fields, which could help locate the subtle magnetic signatures of submerged submarines.
- If successful, this technology could significantly impact naval warfare and the balance of power between China and the United States, as it could compromise the stealth advantage of U.S. nuclear submarines.
