Any military is going to practice things. It makes sense for china to practice this since they are literally surrounded by usa military bases and are threatened by them constantly. This is nothingburger.
The only thing that’s threatened by US military bases are their imperial ambitions in the region. There’s a reason why even Vietnam is seeking US protection. You know that the US isn’t going to attack China first.
You know that the US isn’t going to attack China first.
Then there’s the Trump factor…
They’ll literally just pay him personally to fuck off.
gotta admit, that is a lot safer approach than trying some shit on the real thing
I have a hunch they’re trying to attack the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier
They desperately want to stage their own Pearl Harbor, don’t they? I doubt it’ll go any better for them.

New satellite images have captured what appears to be a mock-up of the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier on a range in a Chinese desert.
The suspected target appears to match the shape, size, and certain details of the USS Gerald R. Ford, according to The War Zone, which first reported the satellite images.
The Planet Labs images show the island, more aft than Nimitz-class carriers, and the four catapult tracks marked on the model’s deck.
In the Indo-Pacific region, the US Navy regularly operates aircraft carriers and other warships, routinely patrolling waters and frequently conducting military exercises.
If China is looking to test missiles against the model of the Ford, it would align with their apparent goals to bolster the capabilities of the rocket force, including its anti-ship elements.
The warship’s hefty price tag exceeded $13 billion and majorly inflated due to delays and technological integration issues.
