The Chinese have built something like 5x the amount of hypersonic windtunnels that the US has: should post that infographic.

that's good work

Oh, and every single surface ship's position is known at all times due to real-time SAR.

i have no idea what china's surface fleet is like but landing isn't feasible unless you completely control the sky. mass paras hasn't been used in a long time because of the spectacular failures or crippling losses they incurred

the amount of things that could go catastrophically wrong in that kind of amphibious invasion are just way too high. i mean they could always try anyway and just gamble hundreds of thousands of lives

You just blockade the island and it's over.

Imagine Ukraine where Ukraine doesn't get the latest and greatest EW equipment from L3Harris. It's a complete joke.

well yea if taiwan is alone a blockade ends in capitulation very quickly starvation is no joke

ergo - why the United States will push to put US forces on the island - because it's basically required and is completely insane.

i dont think so but it's possible. i sincerely doubt they would want a sizeable garrison there

china will be patient as it always is and wait for an opportune chance to sieze it. they have too much face to lose to risk bullying taiwan then stepping down if the big dogs show up

the US loses every single war game unless they just start out with Marines on Taiwan.

The Marines’ key weapon, the Naval Strike Missile, simply can’t shoot far enough with its 100 nautical mile range, making it ineffective for strikes from the Philippines to Taiwan, which is where Marines might be stuck if their access to the area around Taiwan is denied.

“If I’m not on Taiwan, that weapon is basically useless,” Dougherty said. The CNAS expert has confidence that the MLR can be effective but he thinks the unit needs a longer ranging weapon than the NSM for this kind of scenario.

This company that I do inspections for who supplies most of the climbing systems for north America. (When you see those huge elevators or platforms climbing the side of buildings during construction.)

They were making platforms that the USA will use to build missiles. I'm basically part of the Yankee war machine now
