Drones Take Over: America’s Hidden Strategy to Defend Taiwan from China
When we examine the fighter jets like the F15, F16, F22, and F35, the U.S. Air Force appears to have air dominance. But for Taiwan, a glaring weakness is clear—range. These jets have a range of 500 to 600 miles when armed, and for Taiwan, this is a massive problem. The only realistic U.S. air base is Kadena in Japan, 450 miles from Taiwan. If China invades, Kadena would be the first target, leaving U.S. jets without a base. Even if jets get airborne, they could be on one-way flights, with nowhere to return.
While aerial refueling tankers could extend the range, they are slow, vulnerable, and easy targets. So, what’s the solution? Drones.
With the U.S. temporarily pausing its Next Generation stealth fighter project, attention has shifted to unmanned drones. The Ukraine war has shown how drones are the future of warfare, and they’re now seen as key in defending Taiwan. Fighter jets from World War II and the Korean War are becoming obsolete. Drones, capable of flying up to 900 miles, offer a more practical defense.
Instead of pouring billions into jets, the U.S. can deploy drones costing tens of millions. These drones can be launched from smaller, less vulnerable locations, like scattered airstrips in the Philippines. This explains China’s recent focus on the Philippines—control of these islands strengthens their grip on Taiwan and limits the U.S. response.
What’s happening is a shift in military strategy. In future wars, stealth fighters will act as support for drones, like aircraft carriers do for naval operations. Fighter jets will be the “mother ships,” controlling drone swarms from afar. The battlefield will be managed remotely, with minimal human involvement. This isn’t about defending democracy—it’s about control. The U.S. is preparing for a conflict with China, with drones at the center of the fight.
Both China and the U.S. elites know what’s coming. They’re not talking peace—they’re preparing for war. While the world’s attention is on diplomacy, drones are being mass-produced, and stealth fighters are being refitted. The Military-Industrial Complex is running at full speed.
War with China isn’t a distant possibility—it’s inevitable. Every move China makes in the South China Sea, every show of force, is part of a plan to isolate Taiwan. The U.S. is gearing up for confrontation, and it won’t be a flashy jet-fueled war. It will be fought with machines—drones, controlled from thousands of miles away, with human pilots taking a backseat.
Make no mistake: the U.S. paused the Next Generation fighter project not because they couldn’t afford it, but because they know where the real battle will take place. It won’t be in skies filled with fighter jets—it will be a theater dominated by drones, artificial intelligence, and strategic island bases.
The U.S. is quietly preparing for this shift—building drone tech, fortifying smaller islands across the Pacific, and getting ready to confront China’s military. The rules of warfare are being rewritten. If you think fighter jets still hold the key to air superiority, you’re living in the past.
Drones are the future, and they won’t just supplement fighter jets—they’ll replace them. What’s coming is a war fought by machines, controlled remotely, with strategic strikes from hidden bases across the Pacific. The Philippines will play a critical role, which is why China is so focused on asserting its influence there.
The war with China over Taiwan is coming. The U.S. military knows it, the Chinese government knows it, and the drones are already being prepped for battle. This won’t be a war fought by heroic pilots—it will be fought by machines, executing strikes from the shadows of the Pacific islands.
