Busted - 24 Chinese hypersonic missiles can sink #USSGeraldRFord strike force !

Taiwan has dismissed China's claim that it could sink the US Navy's most advanced aircraft carrier strike group. This assertion seems to be part of an effort to bolster public confidence and counter ongoing Chinese intimidation tactics. A research paper published in May by scholars affiliated with the People's Liberation Army-backed North University of China claimed that a war game demonstrated the capability of sinking a flotilla led by the USS Gerald R Ford with 24 hypersonic anti-ship missiles with absolute certainty. This marked the first public disclosure of a Chinese simulation involving hypersonic strikes on a US aircraft carrier. The simulation is thought to have utilized Dongfeng-21D and Dongfeng-26 ballistic missiles, commonly referred to as "carrier killers" due to their intended targeting of mobile naval vessels. This was reported by SCMP or South China Morning Post. Viewers can check the video on the above card to get details of the Chinese simulation.
