I disagree. Look with your own eyes.

Chinese Mobile ICBMs Seen in Central China
By Hans M. Kristensen
March 1, 2012
Road-mobile DF-31/31A ICBM launchers deploying to Central China are visible on new commercial satellite images.
Recent satellite images show that China is setting up launch units for its newest road-mobile Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) in central China. Several launchers of the new DF-31/31A appeared at two sites in the eastern part of the Qinghai province in June 2011. This is part of China’s slow modernization of its small (compared with Russia and the United States) nuclear arsenal.
An image taken on June 27, 2011 (see above), shows two DF-31/31A launchers on the launch pads of a small launch unit near Haiyan (36°49’37.12″N, 101° 6’22.97″E). One is positioned in a circular pad with support vehicles surrounding it. The circular pad was added to the facility sometime between 2005 and 2010. The other launcher is on a pad to the north, located next to an x-shaped launch pad and a missile garage. The layout of the Haiyan launch site is similar, yet not identical, to the DF-31 launch unit of the 813 Brigade at Nanyang.
Another image taken on June 6, 2011 (see below), shows six DF-31/31A launchers lined up on the parade ground at the 809 Brigade base in Datong about 50 kilometers (32 miles) to the east (36°56’57.67″N, 101°40’2.63″E).
The brigade has been thought to be equipped with the DF-21 medium-range missile, but might be under conversion to the longer range DF-31/31A. It is unclear if the launchers are permanently based in the area or temporarily deployed from the 812 Brigade some 500 kilometers (290 miles) to the southeast.

Slow Deployment
Deployment of the DF-31 has been slow since it first entered service in 2006. Less than 10 missiles had been deployed with as many launchers by 2010, and not many more were added in 2011.
The DF-31A began deployment in 2007 with about a dozen missiles on as many launchers by 2010. Also counting 20 silo-based DF-5As, the U.S. intelligence community estimates that China currently has “fewer than 50” missiles that can target the continental United States, suggesting that less that 25 DF-31As are currently deployed. (The number is a little more uncertain now after
the Pentagon in 2011 started supporting Chinese nuclear secrecy by no longer providing a breakdown of Chinese missile forces in its annual report on Chinese military power).
As older missiles with shorter range are retired and replaced by the DF-31/31A over the next decade, a greater portion of the Chinese missile force will be able to target the continental United States, perhaps twice as many by 2025. But even then, the Chinese force will be small compared with that of Russia and the United States."

It's about time the Pentagon stops publishing their ridiculous estimates of Chinese ICBMs.
Do you see these nine DF-31s (which were first shown at China's 1999 military parade)? The Pentagon claims China built less than 15 of them in total. During the 13 years since 1999, the Pentagon absurdly claims China built only six more DF-31s.
To protect their nation from American military power, the Pentagon claims China is leisurely building a new DF-31 every two years. No intelligent person believes the Pentagon propaganda. (Source of Pentagon estimate of less than 15 DF-31s:
http://www.fas.org/irp/threat/missile/naic/NASIC2009.pdf)
China showed us 12 DF-31A TELs at the 2009 Chinese military parade. After finally developing the critical solid-fueled DF-31A that can strike anywhere in the continental United States, the Pentagon propaganda is that China built a total of 25 DF-31As. In the five years since being put into service in 2007, the Pentagon claims China only built one dozen more in addition to the 12 DF-31As shown in this picture. Again, not a credible estimate.
Contrary to Pentagon propaganda, the photographic evidence shows DF-31As are being deployed throughout China. This latest article (see post above) shows Chinese DF-31/DF-31As are being deployed in central China.
The Pentagon and western military experts (including Hans M. Kristensen) are shameless in claiming China's 5,000km Underground Great Wall might be a storage depot and there are no ICBMs down there. The photographic evidence in this picture clearly shows two 13,000km DF-5/DF-5A missiles, which can each carry a four to five megaton warhead.
