PLARF Conventional Strike Capabilities

This map of the Indo-Pacific shows China's conventional short, medium, and intermediate-range missiles that were used for runway attacks in the simulation. Originating from a representative PLARF base in southeast China, the ranges of five missiles (the DF-16, DF-21C, DF-10/DF-100, DF-17, and DF-26) are shown. When originating from the representative base, only the DF-26 has the requisite range to reach locations in the Second Island Chain, including Guam and Palau. All other missiles are capable of reaching at least some locations in Japan.
