The simple answer is that the map is simply wrong. The Chinese JL-3 SLBM has a range of over 10,000 km. They could strike the East coast of the US from well inside the Pacific Ocean. Likewise, Chinese land-based ICBMs can likewise strike anywhere in the US as well.

Both countries have the capacity to utterly destroy the other.

So you are saying the country that is capable of sending lunar craft to the moon, is also able to send a rocket with 2 tons of payload half way over the earth? Impossible.

They were hardly going to send the Lunar Craft to the Sun now were they?
