A missile container must survive the loading system

A concealed launcher depends on manifest control, one-voyage planning, port handling, and disposal as much as it depends on the missile itself.

Notes

A single missile container could give China a niche covert-strike option, provided the operator tightly controls its voyage. The operator would need close control of the crew, manifest, power connection, stack position, and route so that another container does not block or damage the launcher. Even computerized ports sometimes move or stack the wrong box because loading orders, trains, weather, and simultaneous cargo operations introduce errors. A plausible mission would use one controlled voyage, launch once, and perhaps discard the container overboard. Routine port logistics become part of weapon reliability and operational security.
