'We're going to lose fast': U.S. Air Force held a war game that started with a Chinese biological attack

The Air Force? Everybody loses in a biological war.

Bio and Chem weapons are dangerous. One of the lessons from WWI was that if you or your enemy uses them, the wind direction can change fast.

Aren't modern chemical weapons (nerve and blood agents) considerably heavier than air so they settle to the ground quickly.?

How long do you think it would be before we took it back? 10 minutes? 15 minutes tops?

Last fall, the U.S. Air Force simulated a conflict set more than a decade in the future that began with a Chinese biological-weapon attack that swept through U.S. bases and warships in the Indo-Pacific region. Then a major Chinese military exercise was used as cover for the deployment of a massive invasion force. The simulation culminated with Chinese missile strikes raining down on U.S. bases and warships in the region, and a lightning air and amphibious assault on the island of Taiwan.

To begin with, most "war games" are only to consider possibilities. They are purely military, and are not taking into consideration political ramifications.

First of all, China is well aware of what the US policy is in such an event. The use of "weapons of Mass Destruction" on the US or its forces would demand a "response in kind".

However, the US no longer maintains chemical or biological weapons. Therefore, the response would be nuclear.

And China lacks the missiles to "rain down" missiles on US forces, as once again it is impossible to tell if a missile inbound is conventional or nuclear in capability.

In reality, the US would likely be at DEFCON 1 the moment such happened, with the fingers poised over the buttons and ready to launch a nuclear retaliation. And the moment word came in from NORAD that even "dozens of missiles were inbound", I would expect the US to have a nuclear present being sent to China.

Besides, how are they going to target the ships? Most of them would be at sea, and the moment anything came even close to them and it released a single weapon it would become a "weapons free" zone.

I can understand why some might game such a situation, but even those who take part know it is not "real life". It is mostly a thought exercise, and is not a serious part of any war plans.

On a side note, the Naval War College has replayed the Battle of Midway hundreds of times 1942. And never once has the US ever won.

Chem and Bio weapons are designed and can be designed with a weight, lack of weight, no odor, odor of the great out doors. The only country using them these days is Syria. And Syria had better be very, very careful. They've crossed the line.
