Much of the analysis of a potential Beijing attempt to seize Taiwan by force has centered on the Chinese military's capabilities and Taiwan's defenses, especially if supported by the United States. Many assessments conclude that the People's Liberation Army (PLA) is not currently capable of defeating the U.S. military in a direct con...
