Where my arm chair generals at? What the actual best way to pull this off?

Apparently only springtime is possible because other than that the strait is too choppy.

Eastern shore is all rocks so you can’t even do a landing over there.

Also can’t do any of the tactics from ukraine since basements aren’t a thing due to the water table, there a ton of parking garages and subway stations though.

Just do a blocked and starve them until they surrender. It's not like any other state would intervene and Taiwanese can't breach the blockade themselves.

Doesn’t that just give the US time to prep and counter?
>>
Do we really need another china/usa shit flinging thread?
>>
>>64749896
Perphaps. But US wouldn't do anything (at least up until 2028).
>>
>>64749898
no, but chink shills insist on making them. I think they get off on the abuse
>>
>>64749902
Yea but you forget the strait is too choppy, can only do this in springtime.
>>
>>64749906
You don't really need to have ships stationed in the strait itself to block Taiwan from international supply.
>>
>>64749877
China has been demoralized. They saw what happened to their ally Maduro, and are now rethinking their plans. They're utterly shook, it's amazing.

Doubt they'll try anything for Taiwan for another 10 years or more.
>>
>>64749892
That's an act of war. You now have a coalition of nations challenge you and try to break it. If you open fire on them, you better be prepared for the consequences.
>>
>>64749896
Taiwan is totally reliant on daily shipping. The idea is that Taiwan would fold before the US concentrates enough power to break through while the PRC is able to withstand their own shipping being disrupted. The PRC wouldn't need a full capitulation, just Taiwan surrendering all foreign affairs to Beijing and maybe a token police presence on the island.

Whether or not that's viable, I'm not going to address. But it's the logic behind China's PLA reforms and "string of pearls" strategy.

Don't.

What would military operations in a modern east-asian megacity other than an absolute bloodbath for the attackers?

How do you make meaningful progress capturing hundreds of square miles of streets like this without fighting block by block for years?

How would you even begin to go about securing a place this? It just seems like such an obvious fools errand. Even worse than Ukraine.
>>
>>64749877
The HF series of anti-ship missiles have ranges that would put almost every ship in the Taiwanese straights within range. So it'd be a shooting gallery.

Cruise missiles would be hitting mainland staging grounds and ports. Good luck getting any landing ship near them.
>>
>>64750160
HF-3 has shorter range, but larger payload.

I'm no expert, but to me it seems more worthwhile to focus on expanding into Russia instead

Don't forget the Type 12 littered across the Senkaku islands. 600+ launch tubes across 7 regiments.

What's your plan for the naval drones?
>>
Don't bother with a D-day style plan, use multiple airdrop operation (not helicopter operations, actual paradrops) to secure position from which to assault and secure ports (or at least severely weaken local anti-ship capacities), after which the ships start landing troops for pushing to taipei
The key point is in not using predictable landing spots to secure the foothold - instead, use unpredictable air drop patterns. As long as you can prevent funneling at the ports, strategy wise the taiwanese have very little resource in not being overran.
If running a paradrop operation in the 21st century sounds horrendous against any competent defense, just send in sleeper cells by the hundreds/thousands. Frogmen, dedicated vehicles, whatever it takes to secure that foothold - everything after will practically play itself out.

Indeed. The hellscape has materialized far faster than china ever could've predicted.
>>
>Attack midway through the America 2028 election cycle
>Have your social media bots constantly post propaganda and inflame tensions between Americans
>If a democrat gets in, claim the election was stolen and rile up the far right to incite a civil war
>if that fails, constantly boost right-wing viewpoints which will advocate for appeasement and an end to war
>There will be no unity between the political parties so one will betray America's interest if they can secure the 2032 election
>Throw bodies at Taiwan on Russia's level, you can silence all dissent in China for however long
>Constantly drive home just how many Americans are dying, if its anywhere near 200 a week, the American public will revolt against the war
>Right-wing media personalities will shill against the war, boost their messages

etc etc

China will win Taiwan because America will let them.

Does xinnie da pooh have a son he can sacrifice to try and take taiwan?
