A video to promote Chinese a weapons system simulated the bombing of a Taiwan military base, Taiwan News Channel Focus reported.

The system—which integrated M20 short-range ballistic missiles, A200 remote-guided rockets, A100 multiple rocket launchers, unmanned aircraft and field air defense missiles—was advertised as "being able to make pre-emptive strikes against enemies' radar installations, command centers, airports, harbors, power plants and concentrated armored forces," according to Focus.

The video showed drones being in charge of detection; M20s destroying oil depots, power plants, armored forces and F-16 jet fighters at Taiwan's air bases; A100s shelling enemy artillery and air defense sites; and air defense missiles intercepting counterattacks.

Chen Kuo-ming, senior editor of the Taiwan-based magazine Defence International who attended 2012 Airshow China, noted that the weapons were known but integrating them into a complete ground strike package to sell to other countries and using Taiwan to illustrate its capabilities was different.
