How exactly will Taiwan torpedo the dam?

The British needed special design spinning finless 7000 lb bombs to break
through the Ruhr Dam during WW II. Half the bombers on the mission were
lost, most before they got to the dam.

What was the weapon that the Pentagon authors think that Taiwan either has

....because they had to contend with AA guns at the dams, torpedo nets,
low-level flying at night, and some tough maneuvers over a couple of the
reservoirs.

The Taiwanese await the rise of their own Barnes Wallace, should they be so
lucky as to ever have one.

An LZ is a place you want to land, not stay.

Think 100 tons of C4 would do it? I know how to get it there. As for
LZs, I made a bunch of them but never wanted to land there.
