第一点:对中国大陆的打击能力
最近,台北的政治和军事领导人表达了获得武器的意愿,这些武器需要具有对大陆的对等打击能力,并将这种能力作为一种成本效益比比较高的威慑。台湾空军已经拥有潜在的对中国的打击能力。(台湾)领导人已经公开宣称他们需要弹道导弹和对地攻击巡航导弹。
因为台北在部署防御系统上的能力无法与北京相比,所以那些支持对大陆实施打击的人显然希望至少能显示(台湾)对中国的城市人口或者重要目标拥有可靠威胁手段,这些目标包括三峡大坝,同时希望这些威胁手段能够对中国的军事压力产生威慑作用。
以下为该报告第五部分的英文原文:
Taiwan’s Strengths in Countering PLA Courses of Action
Asymmetric capabilities that Taiwan possesses or is acquiring could deter a Chinese
attack by making it unacceptably costly. Taiwan most likely will expand these
capabilities either in tandem with or in lieu of improving its conventional forces.
Strike Capabilities Against the Mainland
Taipei political and military leaders have recently suggested acquiring weapon systems
capable of standoff strikes against the Chinese mainland as a cost-effective means of
deterrence. Taiwan’s Air Force already has a latent capability for airstrikes against
China. Leaders have publicly cited the need for ballistic and land-attack cruise missiles.
Since Taipei cannot match Beijing’s ability to field offensive systems, proponents of
strikes against the mainland apparently hope that merely presenting credible threats to
China’s urban population or high- value targets, such as the Three Gorges Dam, will deter
Chinese military coercion.
Diplomatic Support
President Chen’s administration has sought to elicit international sympathy for Taiwan’s
plight in the face of China’s growing ballistic missile force, for which the island has no
adequate countermeasures. A diplomatic initiative begun late in 2002 sought to draw
international attention to the growing cross-Strait missile imbalance. A resolution
demanding that China withdraw its missiles from the Taiwan Strait area was initially
selected as the topic for the island’s first popular referendum. Taipei probably hopes
these efforts will deter such an attack by increasing the prospect for diplomatic
consequences.
Computer Network Attack
Taiwan’s limited ability to attack Chinese military bases has prompted some Taiwan
authors to endorse attacking China’s command and control systems to achieve
information superiority. Specific targets would include Chinese airports, command and
control centers, and communication nodes. Taiwan has significant potential in this area,
thanks to the island’s high information technology level and the military’s ability to
conscript personnel from a tech-savvy population.
Psychological Warfare
The Taiwan military’s principal psychological warfare (PSYWAR) organization is the
General Political Warfare Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense (MND).
Subordinate units conducting strategic psychological operations include the 1st
Psychological Operations (PSYOP) Group, three Army PSYOP companies responsible
for publishing and propaganda, and the Political Warfare College, which trains PSYWAR
cadre.
The Army PSYWAR Preparedness Center was set up in January 2002. This center will
carry out future PSYOP missions with the armed forces' first wholly dedicated PSYWAR
units, integrated with combat intelligence. If the PSYWAR Preparedness Center
succeeds, a special command organization will be set up in the MND. Army, Navy, and
Air Force PSYOP units probably will be organized in the future.
Electronic Warfare
EW is a top Taiwan military priority because of concerns about China’s own developing
EW capabilities. During the island’s HANKUANG-19 exercise in 2003, tactical EW
units exercised jamming against command and control networks and intelligence
collection systems supporting enemy amphibious landings. Taiwan’s MND
Communications Development Office also reportedly has a strategic EW capability.
Taiwan has more than 30 other ground electronic reconnaissance stations and
communications intelligence stations.
Information Operations
Taiwan’s MND has identified information warfare as a key area for modernization. The
military intends that information operations, along with command and control systems,
will survive an initial PLA assault. Taiwan’s ongoing “Posheng” C4ISR modernization
project includes electronic countermeasure and electronic counter-countermeasure
enhancements. These efforts aim to ensure Taiwan’s C4ISR survives kinetic and
nonkinetic attacks, such as cyberwarfare. In the past 2 years, training exercises worked
to set a firm foundation for information operations capabilities.
