ttbn,

Your timing is shite, there is an actual massive war in Ukraine, and a war between China and Taiwan is presently a distant possibility. Also what is happening in Europe has a significant effect on Aus.

The West is presently arming Taiwan to the teeth against any planned amphibious landing and China couldn't survive a blockade of its economy. So don't expect anything soon.

Baldrick,

I see that you have found a new nutjob whose only merit is that he says what you want to hear. The Russian Air Force wouldn't last a day against the US air force. They aren't even capable of getting air superiority over Ukraine.

Russia is losing this war.

Dear ShadowMinister,

«and a war between China and Taiwan is presently a distant possibility.»

Indeed it is now less of a possibility, but only because China is watching how the rest of the world, including even Australia, is helping Ukraine.

'We're going to lose fast': U.S. Air Force held a war game that started with a Chinese biological attack

What many Americans don’t realize is that years of classified Pentagon war games strongly suggest that the U.S. military would lose that war.

“More than a decade ago, our war games indicated that the Chinese were doing a good job of investing in military capabilities that would make our preferred model of expeditionary warfare, where we push forces forward and operate out of relatively safe bases and sanctuaries, increasingly difficult,” Air Force Lt. Gen. S. Clinton Hinote, deputy chief of staff for strategy, integration and requirements, told Yahoo News in an exclusive interview. By 2018, the People’s Liberation Army had fielded many of those forces in large numbers, to include massive arsenals of precision-guided surface-to-air and surface-to-surface missiles, a space-based constellation of navigation and targeting satellites and the largest navy in the world.

“At that point the trend in our war games was not just that we were losing, but we were losing faster,” Hinote said.

Have a look over at Binoy's piece on the main page.

Look at you SM,
- Thinking every single Australian heart and mind needs to be won over.

WAR WAR WAR!

Get your rifle and put your jumpsuit on and you can go and have your war.
Well let Xi know your coming.

You can't seriously think that everyone is Australia is going to be enthusiastic about going to war with China.
US war games project 3600 troop losses per day.
You know they plan to use our country as a staging point to attack China, along with Australians in the fight, there's a fair chance we'll be targeted and China aims to deny US build-up which would take significant time anyway.

And from what I see the US has no plan for if China simply blockades Taiwan for a significant length of time an attrits the huge US logistical supplyline.

Ah I see you really liked those articles, glad you read them.
"The Russian Air Force wouldn't last a day against the US air force."
- Go ahead and send them then and see what happens.

The vast majority of US troops came in after the war in Iraq and have NO COMBAT EXPERIENCE, where Russia has become far stronger since the war started, it's already on a war production footing and you can bet it's been sharing all it's knowledge with China and Iran, and any war against China, might see you having to take on all 3, with even North Korea thrown into the mix.

Time is a weapon, The war in Ukraine against Russia has depleted western military stockpiles at a significant rate.
And as for your air superiority over Ukraine US air defence doesn't even match Russia S-300

Patriot Missile systems suck. Russia found its Kryptonite: Old Soviet Idiot bombs.

I told you a long time ago, the US military is a toothless tiger.
American military is like America itself, old and crumbling apart.
And more interested in woke ideology than anything else.
Send your army of Klingers and see what happens.

I'm the voice of realism.
Things may not turn out as planned.
