CCG patrolling in the waters east of Taiwan. I’m sure people here understand the significance of this area.

The CCG has patrolled around Taiwan before, but iirc they have never gone this far east. And to do it in such an announced way is significant.

Apparently they entered 12 NM.

It wasn't even that long ago that someone in ROC government said if any PRC assets got inside 12NM they will have to open fire.
Now it happens and they go "noooo, unacceptable!"

That scheme Japan and Philippines cooked up really did a number on Lai government. I wonder how Takaichi and Macros feel right now.

Fair. Their failure to provide links is historical. Though Defense Blog is largely factual.

Unless they're straight up lying, of course.

Perhaps it actually means small FPVs?
Russia is at 5 million FPVs per year, and Ukraine is at 7 million FPVs per year.

---

So the Chinese Army ordering just 1 million FPVs would be about 2? months of usage
That would be enough time for Chinese factories to ramp up to wartime production levels.

On Shaheeds, Russia is at 5K per month
If we scale this figure based on China's industrial capacity, that would imply China producing 50K monthly

---

Iran is at 12K per month.
Again, if we scale this to Chinese levels, that implies 120K Shaheed monthly

You have a serious failure of imagination.

It's easier for an industrial economies to bomb the shit out of the other side than to rebuild after the other side has bombed the shit out of you. If Japan starts a war with China, China needs to put them down ASAP with overwhelming force, not dribble pathetic penny packet attacks at them like that retarded shit show the Russians have in Ukraine. Build a billion drones and smash anything that looks remotely military or industrial. Even if you don't need to use it, having it in reserve makes a terrific deterrent.

Conservative,even cautious measured but definite strong actions like total RE/CM's and even chemicals,all industrial commercial materials/products must be restricted /denied to Japan to deter/slow down/hamper/disrupt her industries-especially military ....but I am confident that China is keeping a very close eye on Tokyo lest she attacks without warning(I know,I know very farfetched but....)-my other concern is a rogue "gekokujo" act by a naval/air commander to take matters into their own hands against China and force the issue-Marco Polo Bridge,Mukden Incident,1895 Battle of the Yellow Sea-etc-the japs have ALWAYS attack us without warning.If it happens ,time to utterly destroy them-I hope it doesn't happen but I would have measure of schadenfrude satisfaction of of seeing these hated nippon savzges destroyed.
