Submitted in Community Scenarios Folder now Taiwan Straits, 2022 Al "Beirutdude" Sandrik The Time Is: Sunday, 27 February, 2022, 21:00 UTC Monday, 28 February, 05:00 Taipei Time Playable as the Peoples Republic of China (PRC) Only 13 Hours Duration This scenario could, repeat could, gradually escalate, or it might not at all, or if could totally blow up in your face all at once. I don’t know, you see there are a series of conditions that dictate how it will go. Someone getting jumpy might just trigger an engagement, but just because you had one or two engagements doesn’t mean all out conflict will ensue because Collective Responsibility has been turned off.

In mid-February, it was announced the American Secretary of State, Antony J. Blinken, and the Japanese Minister for Foreign Affairs, Yoshimasa Hayashi, would be visiting Taipei for the annual "Peace Memorial Day" observance. Concerned that a major arms sale, or even alliance, with the PRC’s two main rivals was to be announced that day, the PLAAF and PLA(N)AF, and their escorts, were ordered to initiate the largest test of the Taiwan Area ADIZ to date. Hundreds of aircraft would be launched to test the Taiwanese resolve, including PLA(N)AF H-6G’s circumnavigating the Island from both the north and south. Other PLAAF units were to be readied in case the situation deteriorated...
