Which statement best describes the PLA's use of space and cyber capabilities within its modernization framework?

• A. To enhance informationized warfare and resilience across domains.
• B. To reduce military spending by outsourcing.
• C. To replace all conventional forces.
• D. To isolate China from global networks.

Answer: (A)

Space and cyber capabilities are used together to enable informationized warfare that links sensors, networks, and effects across land, sea, air, and space. By leveraging space-based ISR, secure communications, and precise timing, along with robust cyber operations to protect and redirect information flows, the PLA aims to keep information dominance and mission resilience even when under pressure. This integrated, cross-domain approach supports multi-domain operations where dominance in information space amplifies effects across all domains, rather than reducing costs, replacing conventional forces, or isolating China from global networks. So the goal is to enhance informationized warfare and resilience across domains.
