, I'd be stocking up on drones that can take out invading Chinese troop ships.
If this war has taught us anything, it's that an invading force has no chance in open terrain (water or land) against drones and hand held ATGM type weapons. They are cheap and incredibly effective.
Can you imagine China trying to assemble and transport 1 million men across the 100 mile wide straight of Taiwan? it would be a turkey shoot. Even China doesn't have that many men.
When China eventually takes Taiwan, it will be from within via some sort of political and economic and social absorption rather than overt military force.
