U.S. strategists studying a conflict scenario with China over Taiwan are recognizing a difficult set of circumstances ahead. War games on this conflict scenario have often shown U.S. forces fighting to a stalemate or clawing out a victory at a heavy price.Looking to mitigate the manpower costs and asset losses it would take to win this fight, military planners have developed what they’re calling the “unmanned hellscape” strategy. Herein, the U.S. military would deploy an army of thousands of small weaponized drones at a Chinese invasion fleet, to stall an attack on Taiwan and buy time for a larger U.S. or allied force to come to the island’s defense. Will this drone army be enough to turn the tide?_Description__________________________________00:00 – Intro01:00 – The Taiwan Challenge02:55 – Paparo’s Drone Gambit05:12 – The Emerging Hellscape Army
