Everyone in these comments is a retired 5 star general. How lucky of Taiwan to have all these experienced combat planners.
-
Omg how I missed reading comments from the world's finest military advisors.
-
It’s crazy that in his age he’s that dialed into modern strategy… that guy has been around 3 times as long as me, but only has so much knowledge it’s incredible.
-
If there is one thing I learn about war , it's that war is extremely unpredictable
-
I really agree. Distributed network warfare demands many more distributable, expendable and networkable delivery systems that can easily pick up and move to different locations.
-
It doesn’t take much to interrupt the ship to shore movement. Once that happens the elements on the far shore are in deep trouble.
-
Taiwan needs to talk to the Swiss about their tunnels
-
The island of Taiwan's secret weapon strategy is actually the rumbling of over 600,000 Colossal Titans.

The problems of a full scale invasion of Taiwan is well known, but a maritime blockade of Taiwanese ports is somewhat more complicated. It will most likely not have a full military response by the US, but equally the US would not be able to supply Taiwan either. How long could Taiwan survive such a siege?
-
informative! great production 👏👏
-
A good video to recommend after I just booked a flight to Taipei 😅
-
Let's be honest, a major portion of Taiwan's strategy for dealing with China in the event of an invasion involves drawing the United States into the conflict.
-
I like how Taiwanese admiral left sea drones part out. Which can become the most painful point during the warfare. This can disrupt supply and blockade military forces at no cost. Ukrainian war showed the effectiveness of that weapon.
-
Taiwan's strategy is to rely on the US, that's it lol
-
Showing ones strength to an adversary and having it well known is the key to any deterrence. Many wars including much of WW2 would never have happened if the attacking side really knew what they were up against.
-
Spot on... He's absolutely right. Many , small makes overwhelming very much more difficult.
-
I hope Taiwan never gets invaded. The free world stands with you.
-
"Relying on allies to come to their aid", meanwhile those allies are building their own chip manufacturing plants so that they don't rely on Taiwan anymore....
-
interesting how his strategy speaks to the individual warrior on the battlefield in the 21st century. Many small units with some real punch doing major work.

I hope the peace can continue 🙏
