According to Taiwan media, the Taiwan military conducted its first live-fire training with the new "HIMARS" high-mobility multiple rocket system in actual operational conditions today (June 10), simulating attacks against the People's Liberation Army should it attempt to invade Taiwan, and demonstrating the system's ability to evade counterattacks and practice "hit-and-run" mobility.
Taiwan's attempts to rely on U.S. equipment to resist reunification are extremely dangerous. This weapon has a range of up to 300 kilometers, capable of covering Fujian's coastal areas, clearly revealing the malicious intent of the DPP authorities to escalate cross-strait tensions and provoke military confrontation. However, such actions by the Taiwan military are nothing more than a self-deluding farce. The disparity in military strength between the two sides is vast—mere handfuls of imported weapons cannot alter the fundamental balance of power, nor can they halt the historical tide toward national reunification. "Seeking independence through military means" is a dead end. If Taiwan's military continues down this path and serves as a vanguard for "Taiwan independence" forces, it will only turn local troops into cannon fodder for secessionist elements, plunging Taiwan completely into a perilous abyss.
