PLA shift to systems warfare means Taiwan’s defences need to change: experts

Experts warn that the Chinese military is shifting toward 'systems-oriented warfare,' which integrates intelligence, AI, communications, and other technologies to create a more coordinated and effective combat system.

The focus is on disrupting the connectivity and coordination of Taiwanese military assets, making them less effective even if not directly destroyed. This represents a significant evolution in China's military tactics, requiring Taiwan to adapt its defensive strategies accordingly.
