As the People's Liberation Army's attack capabilities continue to improve, improving the protection level of important military targets seems to have become one of the few remaining choices for the Taiwan Army. Especially the Taiwan Air Force, which is regarded as the elite of the Taiwan Army, in order to protect its precious fighter jets, the Taiwan Army has built many brand new reinforced explosion-proof aircraft for it to withstand the People's Liberation Army's long-range firepower. However, many foreign media are not optimistic about the behavior of the Taiwan military and believe that doing so is completely meaningless.
, editor-in-chief of the Canadian military magazine "Kanwa Asian Defence" Andrei Chang said that according to public reports, mainland China has equipped its ballistic missile and multi-barrel rocket launcher systems with Beidou satellite navigation system and terminal infrared image guidance system, which greatly improves its strike accuracy and can fully accurately determine the reinforcement fortresses distributed by the Taiwan Air Force on airports.
Take the M20 tactical ballistic missile currently used for export in mainland China (i.e., the foreign trade type of the "Dongfeng-12" ballistic missile) as an example. Its accuracy can be controlled at about 3.3 feet (i.e., 1 meter), and it can also be equipped with a dedicated fuel air temperature-pressure warhead. After hitting the Taiwan Army to reinforce the aircraft fort, it can not only ensure that the aircraft fort is penetrated, but also completely destroy the Taiwan fighter jet hidden in it through high temperature and high pressure. Therefore, any act of the Taiwan Army in building a reinforced aircraft for its fighter jets is futile. The previously disclosed budget of the Taiwan Air Force shows that the Taiwan Air Force will implement the "one aircraft, one database" policy in the future, and has compiled NT$4.4 billion. It plans to build 9 quad-mounted hangars, taxiways and allocation facilities in , Qingquangang Air Force Base, Taichung from 2020 to 2026 to accommodate at least 36 fighter jets. The Taiwan Air Force said that the People's Liberation Army's "Dongfeng" series ballistic missile warheads weigh about 1,500 pounds (about 680 kilograms), and the 36 reinforced hangars will be built according to the standard of carrying 3,300 pounds (about 1,500 kilograms) warheads.
military hangar carrying bomb standards are formulated based on the People's Liberation Army's "Dongfeng-16" medium-range ballistic missile as a reference. The "Dongfeng-16" medium-range ballistic missile has a range of between 800 kilometers and 1,000 kilometers, and can carry a warhead weighing up to 1 ton for attack. It is called "Okinawa Express". During the live-fire training of the People's Liberation Army in the Taiwan Strait a few months ago, the Rocket Force launched several "Dongfeng-16" medium-range ballistic missiles. Therefore, the Taiwan military believes that as long as the standard for carrying the reinforcing aircraft fort is raised to the level of 1,500 kilograms, it can withstand the direct attack of the "Dongfeng-16" medium-range ballistic missile.

However, Canadian media believes that this move by the Taiwan military is useless. Because the PLA is currently equipped with a wide variety of ballistic missiles, and these ballistic missiles have also designed different warheads according to the targets. The standard for carrying the explosion-proof reinforced hangar of the Taiwan Army is designed according to the high-explosion warhead. Once the People's Liberation Army decides to use the semi-armored/armored warhead or the ground-based warhead, there is no need to use the medium-range ballistic missile such as "Dongfeng-16". Some lighter short-range ballistic missiles can completely destroy the Taiwan Army's reinforced crater.
"Dongfeng-15" B launches
In addition to "Dongfeng-16", the "Dongfeng-15B" short-range ballistic missile is also the main type of missile in combat against Taiwan. Its range is between 600 kilometers and 800 kilometers and the warhead weighs 500 kilograms. A variety of composite guidance methods, including inertial guidance, are adopted, which can also accurately attack the Taiwan military's reinforcement fortress. Most importantly, although its warhead weighs only 500 kilograms, with the support of high-speed dive at the end, the "Dongfeng-15B" has a 25-meter-drilling depth, which is more than enough to destroy the Taiwan military's reinforcement fort.
"Dongfeng-15B" has a ground drilling depth of 25 meters, but it is not a professional ground drilling ballistic missile of our army. In order to attack the important command organization hidden deep underground by the Taiwan Army, our army also equipped the world's only ground-based ballistic missile, namely the "Dongfeng-15C". The range of "Dongfeng-15C" is between 600 kilometers and 800 kilometers, and the weight of the warhead has been increased to 1 ton, and the shell material of the warhead is high-hardness tungsten alloy .It can attack at 6 times the speed of sound when attacking at the end, and can easily penetrate a 25-meter-thick reinforced concrete layer.
"Dongfeng-15C"
The US military's GBU-57 giant ground-borrow weighs 13 tons. If thrown from a height of 10,000 meters, its drop speed is about 440 meters per second, and the kinetic energy at the moment of touching the ground is about 1373.74 million joules. The 1-ton warhead of the "Dongfeng-15C" attacked at 6 times the speed of sound, and the kinetic energy at the moment of touching the ground was 2080.8 million joules, which significantly exceeded the US military's GBU-57 giant ground-boring bomb.
Of course, in actual combat, our army does not have to use the "Dongfeng" series of ballistic missiles to deal with the Taiwan military's reinforcement aircraft fortress. The 36 reinforcement fortresses at Qingquangang Air Force Base in Taichung Qingquangang Air Force Base are mainly for attacks falling from the sky. In other words, the protection standards behind the front of these reinforcement forts are not that high. The 1,000-kg laser-through-guided bombs dropped by our fighters can easily "pass through the door" and destroy the Taiwanese fighter jets hiding in the reinforcement fort.
How to quickly paralyze the Taiwan Air Force during wartime and deprive the Taiwan Air Force of operational capabilities has been discussed. Overall, the first thing we are pursuing is to completely destroy the fighter jets equipped by the Taiwan Air Force and make them inactive. If it cannot be completely destroyed, then take a step back and destroy its ammunition database, , oil bomb supply center, and runway, causing it to lose its ability to take off the air combat. After all, the Taiwan Air Force is not equipped with vertical take-off and landing fighter , nor does it have the ability to take off "zero-zero" rocket ejection.
From a practical perspective, the crackdown on the Taiwan Air Force cannot be fully achieved in a short period of time and needs to be carried out in stages. The first phase is to use precious ballistic missiles to attack important air bases and ammunition depots of the Taiwan Air Force, and at the same time dispatch J-16 fighter and "Flying Leopard" fighter bombers carrying aviation sprinklers to carry out large-scale damage to the various airport runways of the Taiwan Air Force.
After the first phase of the operation, our army's fixed-wing fighter jets need to start shifting part of their combat energy to combat and alert against overseas interference forces such as the US military. Therefore, at this time, long-distance observation and attack integrated drones such as "Attack-2" can be dispatched to perform tactical blocking missions in the airspace of the Taiwan Strait. Especially when it is discovered that the Taiwan military has repaired airport runways or transferred fighter jets, it is necessary to attack and damage them in a timely manner.
The third stage is mainly the occupation stage, that is, our army's fighter jets, drone and air burst troops cooperate to directly control the main air bases and airports of the Taiwan Army, repair some runways, and clear obstacles for our army's strategic transport aircraft to transport large combat equipment and airborne troops.
