Because of the demagogy of the United States, Taiwan's relations with the mainland have become worse and worse. In particular, after Lai Ching-te won the election and became Taiwan's next leader, Taiwan's arrogance has been very high. As the handover ceremony of Taiwan's leadership on 20 May approaches, Taiwan's targeting of the mainland is very serious.
Chiu Kuo-cheng, responsible person of Taiwan's "defense department," has made it clear that as long as PLA warships and fighters enter a position of 12 nautical miles in the Taiwan Strait, it will be equivalent to firing the "first shot" at Taiwan, and the Taiwan military will inevitably take measures to pull the trigger in response to the mainland's hostility.
In view of this, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) immediately intensified its patrols in the airspace around Taiwan Island, making it clear that it was for Taiwan to see: If I dare to break in, will you dare to fight? In the past, the Taiwan military would certainly not have done anything, but this time they actually took action.
On 15 April, a carrier-based helicopter from the People's Liberation Army (PLA) suddenly appeared 27 nautical miles away from Taitung, and if it continued to fly toward Taiwan, it would only need to go another 15 kilometers to reach the 12 nautical miles of the Taiwan Strait that Qiu Guozheng had mentioned. At that time, the Taiwan military suddenly launched the Lujian-2 air defense missile, did the Taiwan military plan to directly declare war?
People's Liberation Army (PLA) warships and planes encircled Taiwan, and Taiwan launched Lujian-2 anti-aircraft missiles
On 15 April, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) dispatched more than one carrier-based aircraft, and a total of 11 sorties were dispatched to carry out patrol missions around Taiwan. A total of eight sorties of military aircraft on that day directly crossed the "center line of the strait." At that time, it not only entered the airspace over Taiwan Island, but also directly crossed Taiwan Island and arrived in the airspace of western and southwest Taiwan to carry out patrol operations. In addition to military aircraft, the People's Liberation Army also dispatched eight ships to carry out patrol activities around Taiwan.
For these 8 ships, there is also information that there are also electronic reconnaissance ships and electronic reconnaissance aircraft among them. These two warships and planes only need to stay around Taiwan Island for a few hours to completely collect all the electronic signals and intelligence on the island and prepare for future unified warfare. In this process, judging by the current strength and technology of the Taiwan military, I am afraid that it will not be able to detect it.
At the same time, the Jiupeng military base in Pingtung, eastern Taiwan, also launched a missile test. This base can be said to be an important base for the Taiwan military to test missiles, and in the past, the missiles developed by Taiwan on the island were all test-fired here, and this time the Taiwan military test-fired a Lujian-2 air defense missile here.
It is said that this missile is an upgraded and modified "Tianjian-2" air-to-air missile, and the Taiwan military believes that the performance of this missile is very strong enough to deter the PLA, but in fact it is a product of a child's "playing house."
Because the Lujian-2 air defense missile developed by the Taiwan military itself is not equipped with a powerful "heart," the thrust is insufficient, and the effective range is only 15 kilometers. This kind of range anti-aircraft missile has no ability to block the mainland's fighters, unmanned aerial vehicles, cruise missiles, and other targets, and the mainland can casually let it become an ornament.
Moreover, the Taiwan military still has a problem, this missile has just been test-launched, and it has not yet reached the point of mass production. Anti-aircraft missiles, if they are not numbered to a certain extent, are as useless as decorations.
The detection and tracking capability of the Lujian-2 is also unbearable, and the radar carried on it can only track 20 targets at the same time. If the mainland dispatches swarm drones, Lu Jian-2 is estimated to be dumbfounded. There is simply no need to develop an anti-aircraft missile like this. Even if it is a dozen and one accurate, when facing more than 20 targets, Lu Jian II will not be able to resist the opponent's attack at all, and in the end, he will only be beaten. Therefore, the Taiwan military's attempt to use this kind of air defense missile to intercept our fighters, drones, and cruise missiles is simply a fool's dream!
The United States, Japan and Taiwan colluded, and Cai Zhengyuan issued a warning
In addition to test-firing the Lu Jian-2, not long ago, Taiwan also sent people to the United States to participate in a war game exercise launched by a US think tank together with the United States and Japan. The collusion between the United States, Japan, and Taiwan is not simple, and they want to discuss how to prevent cross-strait reunification, and they also intend to carry out military deployments in the Western Pacific region to prevent the PLA's regional denial/anti-access operations.
With regard to Taiwan's crazy behavior, Tsai Zhengyuan on the island openly warned that if the DPP authorities continue to act in such a wanton manner, they will definitely be seeking their own death, and they will inevitably be severely punished in the end.
Some DPP believes that if the mainland really attacks Taiwan, it will only be a thunderstorm and a small rain, just like the current Israeli-Iraqi situation. In fact, the two are completely different, Iran's attack on Israel is mainly to avenge the bombing of the embassy, and there is no issue of territorial recovery between Israel and Iran, so Iran's attack on Israel is not serious.
However, once the PLA starts a war against Taiwan, it means that it will not give up until Taiwan is recovered. At that time, the PLA will definitely do its best, and the intensity of the attack will be several times that of Iran. Moreover, in order to avoid the intervention of foreign forces, the speed of the PLA's attack on Taiwan must be fast, accurate, and ruthless, and it will definitely not drag its feet.
When the time comes, the United States will not be able to support it if it wants to, and in addition to the huge disparity in military strength between the two sides of the strait, and the People's Liberation Army (PLA) is as fast as lightning, how can the Taiwan military be able to resist it?
