Chinese researchers have created a detailed war game simulation, showcasing a **surprise US missile attack** on a PLA carrier group in the **South China Sea**.
The simulation includes **key parameters** of the US's advanced AGM-158C Long Range Anti-Ship Missiles (LRASMs), designed to enhance PLA tactics and countermeasures.
In a simulated battle scenario, US missiles faced **malfunctions** due to PLA **electronic warfare**, demonstrating potential vulnerabilities in their operations.
The Chinese team cites the use of **open-source intelligence** to obtain information about US military capabilities, though specifics on their data collection remain unverified.
The **LRASM** is recognized as a significant threat to China, yet its limitations were exposed during simulations that did not activate PLA defense systems.
