China’s military strategy has increasingly emphasized Tibet as a key region for national security and power projection. The Tibetan plateau, with its high-altitude terrain and proximity to India, serves as a crucial buffer zone for China’s defense posture. The People’s Liberation Army (PLA) has intensified military infrastructure development in Tibet, including the construction of airbases, missile sites, and logistics hubs to enhance rapid troop deployment capabilities. Since the 2017 Doklam standoff and the 2020 Galwan clash, China has increased its military presence along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with India. The PLA has deployed Combined Arms Brigades (CABs), equipped with mechanized units, drones, and advanced surveillance systems to strengthen its defensive and offensive capabilities. The expansion of roads, tunnels, and rail links in Tibet further enables strategic mobility, allowing China to reinforce border positions swiftly. Additionally, China has incorporated high-altitude warfare training for its forces, focusing on adapting to extreme weather conditions. The militarization of Tibet aligns with Beijing’s broader geopolitical ambitions, influencing regional security dynamics. As tensions with India persist, China’s focus on Tibet underscores its long-term military objectives in securing its western frontiers and asserting dominance in South Asia. “China’s Military Planning: Focused on Tibet” explores China’s strategic military buildup in Tibet and its implications for regional security, particularly along the India-China border.
