Taiwan News: US war game on China attack finds Taiwan must be armed 'to the teeth'  

Exercise also concluded US must beef up long-range missile stockpiles, brace for economic impact 

TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — After conducting a war game simulating a Chinese invasion of Taiwan on Wednesday (April 19), U.S. Representative Mike Gallagher concluded that Taiwan must be armed 'to the teeth,' the U.S. must ramp up the production of long-range missiles, base agreements must be fortified, and American firms must prepare for the economic impact. 

The Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which is led by Gallagher, coordinated a tabletop exercise on Wednesday with the Center for a New American Security (CNAS), which simulated a Chinese attack on Taiwan. The results showed that the U.S. will no longer be able to supply Taiwan once the war breaks out.
