^^ current info on FOBS
like TORCH, the tech originated in the US.
1) Since the public are on the topic of China, let’s share a video from The Ministry of National Defense from the PRC, on 3/25/22.

2021. It’s a FOBS, Space Force’s Saltzman confirms amid Chinese weapons test confusion

2021. Is China gliding toward a FOBS capability?
Media reports indicate that China has tested a system that appears to incorporate a glide body into a Fractional Orbital Bombardment System (FOBS), a nuclear-weapons delivery system that places warheads into low-earth orbit prior to de-orbiting them on to their targets. Some details of the test are unclear, and China has denied that it took place. FOBS are a Cold War technology, but if reports of the test are accurate, China would be the first state to develop this supplemented capability. Whether developing a glider-FOBS would actually provide China with a strategic advantage is debatable. What is more certain is that the test demonstrates the continuing strategic competition and counteractions between China and the United States in the missile-technology realm.
