What missile can be used for Taiwan?
According to the Pentagon, China has 1,200 short-range SRBMs equipped with conventional weapons. This rocket force has between 150 and 200 medium-range MRBM missiles. China will not fire DF-ZF hypersonic weapon against Taiwan. Because its speed is between 6173 to 12,360 km/hr. Taiwan is not far enough away to be able to use it.
ICBMs and ICBMs will not be used. Its reach is greater. If China can use any missiles through its rocket force against Taiwan, it is short-range ballistic missiles. China has missiles such as DF-15C, DF-15B, DF-15A, DF-11A, M20, BP-12A and B-611M. China has a total of more than 2,000 missiles of this type. But Rocket Force has about 1,200 such missiles. These missiles will prove to be the most accurate for China in attacking Taiwan.
The most accurate attack based on range can only be performed by SRBM.
The largest Chinese Rocket Force bases near Taiwan are in Fujian and Guangdong provinces. These bases are capable of attacking Taiwan from three sides. There are DF-11A short-range missiles in Fujian and Guangdong. This means that these bases could most likely be used to attack Taiwan. From here the missiles can go out and attack Taiwanese targets.
