China's air force test-fired a new air-to-air missile for the first time last week in a move that has altered the military balance across the Taiwan Strait, defense officials say.

The missile was identified by U.S. intelligence agencies last week as the Russian-made AA-12 Adder during a test-firing by two Chinese Su-30 fighters, said officials familiar with reports of the testing.
