Chinese planes can be shot down by either Taiwan or the US. What will China do then? Are they really ready for war? Probably they will just seethe a bit like they do every time and back off.
See above.
It is not China that has to be ready for war. For the US or Taiwan to shoot first, that is declaration of independence, a Fort Sumter moment. China shooting first is just defense of sovereign territory.

Not the US military. It’s more like the Western public. Those guys in the military command already know. The idiots on twitter, Reddit, etc are the ones whose going to be malding and screeching their ass off. They think China is bluffing and won’t do anything but may only fly past the mid zone a little. I even seem highly upvoted comments that if China does anything then the US should destroy the three gorge dam because China can’t and won’t do anything about it.

W/o they are supporting actual genocide. Classy.

There must be stupid stuck in your head to say such utter trash. If the ROC fires upon any PLAAF asset and got shot down, that would be the biggest invitation for an armed Reunification come hell or high water. And then if you're lucky enough, you'll be asked to sign up and hurry your fat behind to fight a war unlike any other war in the pacific to finally see how the hapless Chinese obliterate your behind to kingdom come.

And those folks really don't see the irony from their genocidal wish like comments. Which just further illustrate how empty, insincere, and unprincipled those folks are when it comes to their opinions on China and to a greater extent, the Chinese people. Especially with their tired Ole shtick of "I hate the See See Pee, not the Chinese people.

The Three Gorges Dam as a target is Taiwanese talking. Ironic since there was talk in this forum before that China shouldn't target Taiwanese civilians if war breaks out. Taiwanese would sink China's hospital ships too recalling a conversation in this forum back when China built those ships. Funny how Taiwanese have no problem violating international rules but if China did that it would be bad. Go ahead and try to destroy the Three Gorges Dam and that opens the door to "legally" killing Taiwanese civilians. Are they going to cry foul when that happens?

Realistically Taiwan will have a hard time destroying the Three Gorges Dam without a nuke. All they have is their missiles that can reach it and if you haven't notice in the past the Taiwanese have gone through some embarrassing episodes when showing off their missiles. How many missiles do they have? Not enough. Remember the US dropped more bombs on Vietnam than all the bombs dropped during WWII. Did the US win in Vietnam? And think about about all the expensive precision guided missile that has to be attached to that one bomb to get to the Three Gorges Damn. They would be only mosquito bites. Let them waste their time concentrating all their weapons on trying to destroy the dam.

I was watching a YouTube video of a computer game scenario of an attack on Taiwanese military runways by H-6 bombers. Really, would that be the only thing China would do in the outbreak of a war? And of course Taiwan successfully beat back China. When the Key Aviation forum was still around, they had all these us vs. them countries at war scenarios. And when it came to China, countries like Norway had everything at their disposal even weapons they didn't develop. But of course they put shackles on China on what it could use and do. I think they think they can apply that in real life.

Lol, the US was too scared of attacking Iran after they fired at their military bases in Iraq, they will do jackshit. Americans have zero balls to do anything against peer armies with nukes, they can only attack when they have an overwhelming advantage. Ukraine exposed them - the US will whine, impose some sanctions, buff up their military bases in vassal states to look tough, provide some second-grade weaponry, and all their usual virtue signaling, then be done with it.

In this case, it’s more like Americans saying they should destroy the dam if China does anything to stop Pelosi rather than the ones on the island.

Especially with their tired Ole shtick of "I hate the See See Pee, not the Chinese people.

Thankfully, we already know how they will react just by looking at how they treated Russians. They are openly gleefully about killing Russian civilians. All the more reason why China needs enough nukes.
