Beijing exercises for the conquest of the island have science fiction.
The last attack on Taiwan He left April 1st, but everything is except a joke. That day Beijing launched the thirteenth “demonstration exercise” against the island since March 2018: he surrounded it with dozens of ships, and for the first time he also employed a aircraft carrier, the Shandong, launched in 2019. The attack found his justification in a declaration by the Taiwanese president Lai Ching-te, which a few days before he had defined China “hostile force”, but like all those who preceded it ( went back to January) serves to make growing pressure on the Taipei government and to evaluate the actual capacity for the reaction of its armed forces. The concern of the Pentagon this time is higher, however, because President Xi Jinping has placed his armed forces An stringent term for the “Chinese reunification” freeing “the island by 2027
In the meantime, the Asian power has just put its new, revolutionaries and immense landing in the water. And they also seem to be made especially for an invasion of Taiwan. So far, at least three of these cychato ships have been observed, built by Guangzhou’s construction sites, a 600 kilometers south-west of Taipei. Long from 110 to 185 meters and between 25 and 35, the new landing vehicles are the result of a very rapid design, which began in 2024, and demonstrate what the Chinese launching capacity is in the military field, currently 230 times higher than the American one. Each barge has pillars – from four to six, depending on the size of the ship – which are lowered on the seaside seabed near the coast object of the attack, and are used to stabilize the vehicle: at that point, the barge raises on the waves and the bow makes a telescopic bridge of 150 meters drops, which in a few minutes, exceeding any passive defense prepared on the coast, can make dozens of armed wagons and heavy vehicles, hundreds of men. At the end of March, the US satellites framed three of these vehicles that were exercised in the southern Chinese Sea, and they observed them to perform a strange maneuver that connected them in line with each other, so as to form a single “ponton” more than 800 meters long. American analysts believe that the operation, starting from more than a kilometer from the shore, points to create particularly powerful attack waves.
