Missiles 'heading to coast'
STAFF REPORTER



   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A large group of military vehicles carrying guided missiles and equipment was
seen yesterday heading towards the Taiwan Strait coast in Fuzhou, where a top
PLA general has recently visited.
At least eight vehicles, each loaded with an unidentified missile, and four
trucks carrying unknown military supplies, were spotted on the outskirts of
Fujian's provincial capital, witnesses said.

The vehicles were escorted by four police vans at the front and another four
at the rear, which had their sirens on as the motorcade headed towards
southern Fuzhou.

Only the tails and the wings of the missiles were seen under heavy
camouflage.

Analysts said the size and shape of the missiles suggested they were either
medium-altitude ground-to-air guided missiles, known as Hongqi-2B, or some
sort of short-range ground-to-ground missiles.

The vehicles' licence plates suggested they belonged to the Nanjing military
region, which commands the eastern mainland, including Fujian.

The Nanjing region, along with the Guangzhou command, carried out a series of
military exercises in September which took place in the northern and southern
waters of the Taiwan Strait.

General Zhang Wannian, vice-chairman of the elite Central Military
Commission, made an official visit to Fuzhou about two weeks ago, officials
in the provincial capital said.

The general, who engineered the September war games, has been considered a
leading PLA hardliner towards Taiwan since island President Lee Teng-hui's
statehood claim in July.
