- China released a simulation video on Friday of how it could strike Taiwan with waves of missiles.
- The clips are a hype montage of CGI and live footage from mock strikes carried out last weekend.
- They showed off the ground-based launchers, jet fighters, and naval ships that China could fire from.
China’s Eastern Theater Command on Friday released a simulation video of its missile forces carrying out a mass attack on Taiwan, boasting its land, sea, and air launch capabilities.
The 70-second hype video used a mix of computer-generated animation and live footage to depict warships, land-based rocket launchers, and jet fighters launching waves of missiles at the island.
“Destroy the pillar of Taiwanese independence! Strike the base camp of Taiwanese independence! Cut off the blood flow of Taiwanese independence!” the People’s Liberation Army branch wrote in the video.
It’s almost like China is looking at Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Israel’s invasion of Gaza and thinking “other countries will get upset, but no one will actively fight against us.”
