China puts air force and navy generals in key posts By tapping officials with air and coastal warfare experience, it is positioning itself for any battle over Taiwan Strait By Oliver Chou CHINA has stepped up preparations for any battle over the Taiwan Strait by moving several generals with experience in air and coastal operations to key positions. According to reports, Lieutenant-General Zheng Shenxia, 61, chief of staff of the air force, was recently appointed president of the Academy of Military Sciences, the top think-tank on military strategy. Advertisement He is the first airman to head the academy since it was founded in 1958 by the late Marshal Ye Jianying. Analysts believe this reflects an increased emphasis by Beijing on improving research and planning for airborne operations rather than traditional ground force movements. The implications are obvious: Should hostilities break out over the Taiwan Strait, it is the air force and navy of the People's Liberation Army that will do most of the fighting. straitstimes.asia1.com.sg
