Reporters Cheng Yanhao, Chen Junjie / Taipei Report
Chinese cultural attacks and military threats threatened Taiwan. China’s South China Morning Post reported that the People’s Liberation Army deployed the Dongfeng-17 supersonic missile off the southeast coast. The most famous of this missile is the Mach 10 speed claimed by the CCP. You can fly to Taiwan in less than two minutes. However, as long as the missile is raised in the air, our radar station can also be immediately picked up and countermeasures taken.

This is the Dongfeng 17 hypersonic missile of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army. It made its first public appearance at the Chinese Communist Party military parade in 2019. This time, China’s South China Morning Post reported that the Dongfeng 17 has been deployed to the southeast coast, which may pose a threat to Taiwan.
China has long deployed more than 1,100 short-range ballistic missiles in Taiwan.
If Dongfeng 17 is deployed this time, it will be enough to cover the second island chain based on the official Chinese official maximum range of 2,500 kilometers. China claims that Dongfeng 17 has a super high speed of 10 horses, claiming that even the US military cannot stop it.
The missile can fly 201 kilometers per minute on average. Even if the Taiwan Strait is 410 kilometers wide, once the missile takes off, it can hit Taiwan in less than two minutes in 119 seconds.
Chen Guoming, Global Defense Magazine Interview Director: “If China wants to attack Taiwan, indeed, the range of Dongfeng 11 and Dongfeng 15 is enough. The purpose of the advance of the Dongfeng 17 missile is a kind of publicity.

Many Chinese military experts and web animations continue to show Dongfeng 17 performance on the Internet, but so far no launch has reached the target screen.
The CCP has been challenged for excessive exaggeration, especially no matter how fast the east wind flies, as soon as it takes off, Taiwan’s paw radar can detect it. Once detected, it can be intercepted by the Sky Bow missile and the Patriot III.

Wang Dingyu, DPP legislator: “The People’s Liberation Army will not be deployed so close to Taiwan in the southeast. Instead, it will be exposed to attackers from Taiwan. I am a little suspicious of the Chinese media reporting on this position. Taiwan cannot be underestimated. We all know the CCP’s threats, but we don’t need to exaggerate the CCP’s capabilities. “
President Tsai recently inspected the Leshan radar station and accidentally exposed the logo of the Air Force Early Warning and Reconnaissance Center. The Taiwan Black Bear was holding a missile and the H-6 fighter outside. Although China has developed new weapons to intimidate Taiwan again, we are closely monitoring and preparing for war, and we are ready to face China’s wrongdoing in destabilizing the region.
