Chinese Navy Using Commercial Car Ferries to Launch Amphibious Landing Craft - USNI News (THIS IS HUGE!!!!)

 

This should concern Taiwanese defense planners.

THIS IS HUGE!

With all the merchant traffic in the straits and with the ability to now CONVINCINGLY hide within that traffic means that a modern day 'trojan horse' assault can be conducted.

I've always read about planning for putting paratroopers/special ops aboard commercial aircraft to storm airports ahead of a follow-on force from the 82nd (and then an armored brigade) but never an amphibious assault.

Interesting.
