Taiwanese Military to Simulate 2027 Chinese Invasion

Taiwanese troops frequently train to repel a hypothetical Chinese invasion, but they have never before specified when the invasion was taking place.

“The Han Kuang exercise has always been designed to simulate scenarios that could occur within the next one to two years,” Taiwanese Defense Minister Wellington Koo said in defense of the curiously specific military drill.

The Defense Ministry announced the details of this year’s Han Kuang exercise on Wednesday – the day after the head of the U.S. Strategic Command (STRATCOM), Air Force Gen. Anthony J.
