China is building giant bridge ships to invade Taiwan. This is reported by the industry magazine Naval News.
The publication publishes photos of these bridge ships, which were taken on a beach in the northeast of the country.
"China is currently building at least five new specialized ships, which are apparently designed for amphibious operations. These ships can provide the People's Republic of China with a unique opportunity to unload a large number of armored vehicles directly onto Taiwanese roads," the publication said, quoted by Strana.
It is noted that the magazine's conclusions are based on an analysis of satellite images showing urgent construction work at several shipyards on the east coast of China, directly opposite Taiwan.
Chinese state media published simulation models of the deployment of floating bridges, after the floating colossus was discovered.
"The construction of such special bridges-ships is one of the indicators that defense analysts are monitoring in search of early warning of a possible invasion. It is possible that these ships can be explained by their civilian purpose. But the fact that so many ships are being built, which are much larger than comparable civilian vessels, makes this implausible," the magazine writes.
According to the authors of the publication, the ships are suitable for delivering a large amount of heavy equipment to shore in a short time.
