A combination of a missile sheild, a few attack subs, and A LOT of anti-aircraft capacity, (and possibly a stronger Taiwanese air force, or even land-to-sea anti ship missiles) would prevent the CCP from ever taking over Taiwan.

The best thing we can do is plan. If we have all those things in place, then the PRC would be just asking for trouble.

The US's involvement could be very limited to a few jet fighters and two attack subs... and Taiwan would come out on top.

If you look at the politics within the Island, you may not be so optimistic.
