A Reuters review of almost 100 articles in more than 20 defense journals reveals an effort across China’s military-industrial complex to scrutinize the impact of US weapons and technology that could be deployed against Chinese forces in a war over Taiwan.

“A key lesson the world should take away from the rapid international response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is that aggression will increasingly be met with unity of action,” said the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the topic’s sensitivity, without addressing concerns raised in the Chinese research about specific U.S. capabilities.
While some of the journals are operated by provincial research institutes, others are official publications for central government bodies such as the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, which oversees weapons production and military upgrades. Beyond technology, Koh said he was not surprised that Ukrainian special forces operations inside Russia were being studied by China, which, like Russia, moves troops and weapons by rail, making them vulnerable to sabotage.
One article, published in October by two researchers at the PLA’s National Defense University, analyzed the effect of U.S. deliveries of high-mobility artillery rocket systems to Ukraine, and whether China’s military should be concerned. While that scenario has obvious Taiwan comparisons, there are differences, particularly given the island’s vulnerability to a Chinese blockade that could force any intervening militaries into a confrontation.References to Taiwan are relatively few in the journals reviewed by Reuters, but diplomats and foreign scholars tracking the research say that Chinese defense analysts are tasked to provide separate internal reports for senior political and military leaders.
