The 'Han Guang Exercise 40' this year will not include the 'Red Army' attacking force, as confirmed by Minister of National Defense Gu Li-Hsiung, emphasizing the need for realistic scenarios for verification purposes. The cancellation of the simulated attacking force has posed challenges for defense drill inducements, potentially impacting the amphibious and airborne combat capabilities of the military. Gu Li-Hsiung clarified that this decision was made by the Chief of the General Staff to validate certain aspects through realistic simulations, highlighting the importance of achieving specific objectives through these exercises rather than engaging in confrontational simulations.
