Taiwan is 100 miles of the coast of mainland China. China doesn’t need massive ships to invade Taiwan.
It can invade it with inflatable rafts if push comes to shove and since the mainland is 100 miles away it’s well within the range of rocket artillery and air assets.
So they are going to invade with just unprotected troops and no other hardware? No armour. No artillery strikes on Taiwan - the farthest hitting artillery is only 43.5 miles; according to Google, by the US Army ironically. Are they going to re-supply the invasion force via inflatable rafts too?
In the worst case, the missiles can be adapted for anti-personnel use with cluster munition warheads to shower the battlefield with shrapnel - which should be pretty effective against troops not protect by armour.
