Wrong pal, with range of over 3000 km it can hit targets as far as most of the Micronesia and Polynesia. And in most of the military artillery doctrine, this kind of missile won’t be fire at Taiwan which is just at a few hundred kilometer from the mainland China. And if it’s equipped with radar and GPS guidance system, I bet even the Japanese anti-balistic forces will pee their pants.
However, for now I doubt the Chinese will arm them en mass. China do have potential to research some newer and better weapon but arm themselve en mass? Well, not now.
You’re assuming the Chinese would be so stupid as to put these things on their coastline. They wouldn’t. These things have the range to hit Taiwan from deep inside China’s interior, beyond normal strike range for Taiwan’s aircraft.
Of course they won’t. Trasporting a medium range ballistic missile need more than just a truck/lorry. And that with that kind of size in return, will only makes the launch site an attractive target for cruise missiles or any air strike. And I bet the Chinese know this.
We are underestimating them just like we did the Japanese prior to WWII.

They can fire the missile from deep inside their territory using rail or mobile launch-something that most strategic missiles now have.Depending on distance,it can hit large parts of India,Russia or Taiwan.Air & cruise missile strikes take time & this is a solid fuel missile.You can launch it in under 15 minutes.
What's your take on Hsu and human toilet Hillary?
Your link in #50, thank you.
Hsu is really just a stooge. He wasn’t much more than a bundler back during ChinaGate. He wasn’t more than just a coyote for money now. I’ld be more interested in who he launders money for.
