EVs on the battlefield are as of yet untested. That makes the BYD factory at best possible dual use. A bad target for Taiwan and its allies for a host of reasons.

In past wars factories making steel pots made helmets. I can definitely imagine an ev plant making drones.

Drones seem to be quite an important facet of the current war in Ukraine and Russia.

I wonder how fast this factory could be converted produce drones and how fast it could spit them out.

Imagine a circular loop of larger carrier aircraft that load up FPV drones from this factory and fly to their destination to drop them off only to fly back to do it again.

The FPV drones could have object recognition to target people, artillery, infrastructure so they could operate autonomously.

I wonder if they will put the landing pads on the factory roof or next to the factory.
