Let's see. Since the max ordinate for the dam in terms of upstream fill is
supposed to be only about 175 meters, from what I have read, you halfway
dimension would apparently be, based upon that 122 meter estimate above,
something like 57 meters--let's be generous and assume a more favorable
number for you, of maybe 40 meters (reflecting a more realistic actual

cross
section). Which last I knew was quite a bit more than 100 feet--more like
125 feet?


125 feet? Heck, if you can deliver them accurately a handful of GBU-28s
should take care of the problem. Granted, the hole wouldn't start out that
big between the water pressure and the fracturing around the hole I expect
that problem would get bigger quickly enough.
Now, could Taiwan deliver them (or a local equivalent), that could well
be an issue.
