What is left out is that Japan is upgrading its surface to surface and anti ship missiles to ranges up to 1,500 km. This would cover quite deep into China if deployed in Okinawa and smaller islands closer to China

@Piss-Poor-Infantry "Sink those Islands". We are currently not even sure if China is even a match against Japan to be honest. Most of China's warships are coastal patrol boats, only about 50 destroyers and Japan has about 40. Japan's destroyers are Aegis equipped, more capable air defenses onboard

@sunset6958 Having superior military is what prevents war. If Ukraine had superior military at the start, do you think Russia would ever invade?

@TD-wz4rr You mean using nukes? Not realistic as Japan is under US nuclear umbrella treaty. A nuclear launched from China at Tokyo would mean Mutual Assured Destruction on China by the US. What is more realistic is China launching conventional ballistic missiles and cruise missiles towards Tokyo. Japan has Aegis to deal with them. 60% of those ballistic and cruise missiles will be shot down. China's short range ballistic missiles can't reach Japan. China's medium range ballistic missile will only reach some parts of west Japan. Only China's intermediate-range ballistic missiles is capable of reaching Tokyo. China probably has a couple of hundreds of them. China has 1,200 conventionally armed short-range ballistic missiles, 200 to 300 conventional medium-range ballistic missiles and an unknown number of conventional intermediate-range ballistic missiles, as well as 200-300 ground-launched cruise missiles. China's warships sailing closer to Japan to attack Tokyo is difficult as Japan's entire military is built on the doctrine of anti ship warfare. Anti ship missile batteries, warships and Japan's air force will deal with China's 50 destroyers if they came close to Japan's mainland. Currently China has the upper hand only because of its arsenal of missiles. However if China moves out of its missile umbrella radius, Japan would dominate. In a couple of years time Japan's first strike capabilities will be in service, long range missiles that would covers all of China's Hu Line which comprise of 94% of China's population. Half of China's(west) is literally almost desert-like.

@lalzgarra9493 There is no such thing as perfect air defense system. However Israel and the US have the best air defense systems in the world

@lalzgarra9493 What are you talking about? Russia can't even shoot down cheap Toys R Us drones over Kremlin. China's air defense are copies of Russian air defense systems

@lalzgarra9493 Most of what Russia "captured" were already controlled by pro-Russia rebel forces to begin with. What happened when Russia went in deeper or tried to capture regions that are not already controlled by pro-Russian separatists? Russia tried Kyiv Oblast and Kyiv, Kherson Oblast, Kharkiv Oblast, Chernihiv Oblast. Ukraine recaptured these. Russia was defeated and kicked out of these regions. Ukraine took back 50% of what Russia captured. Now all of these are irrelevant to the fact the Russia army is getting picked apart by these cheap Toys R us drones.

@EvaExplores-x2x Japan would never first strike China. The likely hood of this happening is close to zero. The one who would be doing the first strike is China. However China would as much as possible not want to bring the US or Japan into the war with Taiwan. It has to do its own calculation whether to strike US bases in the region or simply go for Taiwan alone. My conclusion is that China wouldn't first strike US bases in the region, China would simply go for Taiwan alone hoping for the US and Japan to not get involve. I even doubt China would even attempt an invasion of Taiwan. Its just too costly with unknown results.

@lalzgarra9493 Still more accurate than whatever China has

@lalzgarra9493 Sure, like how these same cheap Toys R Us drones are picking the Russian army apart on the battlefield right? There are hundreds of videos

@pinlyu7068 Do you have source for this?

@pinlyu7068 Impressive. I have always admired China's production capabilities. The speed in which China produces Infrastructures and warships has always amazed me. And now even missiles, this is probably a lesson learnt from the Ukraine war. I will give credit when credit is due.

@pinlyu7068 However I want to point out that if China and the US goes to war, the US will very likely target these production facilities. This is why many think what the US and China have at the beginning of the war will only decrease because both sides will hit Shipyards, production lines, factories etc..

@pinlyu7068 The daily output of 1,000 engine components for 1,000 missiles. Not 1,000 missiles per day
