Can Taiwan Resist a Large-Scale Military Attack by China?: Assessing Strengths and Vulnerabilities in a Potential Conflict

In this report, the authors develop a framework for assessing a country's capacity to resist a large-scale attack. The authors then use that framework to assess Taiwan's capacity to withstand such an attack by China for at least 90 days. An accurate assessment of Taiwan's ability to sustain a defense could help U.S. decisionmakers and planners better anticipate and respond in such a situation.
