TSM ... Taiwan Semiconductor
- Thread starter BKR88
- Start date
There is a overproduction (caused by dumbo US sanctions), high inflation, declining sales, and declining interest to buy the high-priced crap... 
A blockade can be put in place with no notice and completely out of the blue. The ships are already there and loaded for bear. All it takes is one announcement... "Taiwan is now on blockade. Any ships coming or going will be deep six'd."
This would happen far in advance of any moves by an invasionary force.
Unless the 2000 yo rules of warfare have changed in the last few years and I missed it.
sure, if it is short of a nuclear shootout.
Love how everyone takes an attack by China as granted. It's not at all for sure. The landing boats would have to pass a US fleet. Same goes for the isolation plan. This is not Ukraine where no Nato was in the way to attack.
no, us fleet is on eastern seaboard of taiwan at best, while chinese will land on the west side. the narrowest distance is just 80 miles, about from nyc to philadelphia, can’t fit so many ships unless to be sunk.
Ok thats a fault on my part. But isolation still is an issue. As long as the us Navy escorts ships to taiwan an embargo would be somewhat difficult
us navy can't even enter the taiwan strait if china puts up a blockade and mine the water.
taiwan strait is important because over 80% of the shipping to japan and south korea passes that line, cut down about half a day at least vs philippine sea, but it is very narrow.

Good victory points, hard to predict a war victory especially when it comes to the future.
Like 1776 losers wore red coats, yet had the most guns.
Looked like a French fighter Napoleon + Sisera could never be stopped;
big guns, big iron in a good rainstorm = useless for victory.
