It is noted that this strategy was developed by American commanders, who call it the "hellscape."
The goal is to use them to help detect and attack Chinese forces approaching the island, relying on Taiwanese soldiers trained to move quickly before China can strike them
It is noted that, inspired by the lessons of Ukraine and other recent combat zones, Taiwan is now accelerating efforts to put this strategy into practice.
Taiwanese officials have noted Ukraine's battlefield successes driven by drones, and they are trying to emulate the Ukrainian "David versus Goliath" approach: using relatively cheap and agile drones to level the playing field against a much more powerful adversary
Recall
On August 5, Taiwan began this year's largest military exercises, Han Kuang, during which the military and civilians will practice actions in the event of a possible Chinese invasion.
