all this country has is Brahmos, and boasted it all the time, they do not know much about YJ 12 which China has for a long time, people in this country always say Brahmos is fastest cruise missile, they do not know JY 12 got Mach 4, Brahos only Mach 3, if they say nothing can intercept Brahmos at M3, then how about YJ 12 at Mach 4??? Brahmos with range of 290 km, YJ 12 with range over 400 km.
besides China's antiship ballistic missile (DF 21D), and hypersonic missile (DF-17), China can use a combination of fighters, such as J20 and J16 D to fight FA 18 and F35, at the same, to cover for H6K to each carry 12 YJ 12 to attack US aircraft carrier strike group. Taiwan is only 200 km from mainland, China, it is high dangerous for US air craft carriers to get close to 1000 km to China, but F35 and FA 18's fighting radium is only 750 km.
more difficult is Taiwan with wide of 200 km, for US to interfere PLA crossing TW strait that added another 200 km so total will be 400 km, the antiship missile range from air is LRASM has a range of 300 nmi (560 km), that means FA 18 needs to fly to about 200 km to TW, :)) they cannot survive with China's jets fighting them.
