That is the hard part. Not only would you have to deal with US carrier based air assets, but also air assets from bases in Japan and South Korea. In addition, Aegis based cruisers also have a heavy anti-aircraft armament.
- sudosysgen 6y agoEstablishing air superiority and creating a beachhead would be a matter of one day or two, at most. It would be impossible for a US carrier strike group to intervene by then. Same for Aegis. As for Japan, it is much too far from Taiwan to contribute. South Korea will not get involved for obvious reasons.
