The satellite images reveal a layout of streets strongly resembling the Bo’ai Special Zone, a restricted area in Taipei’s Zhongzheng District that houses Taiwan’s most important state buildings, including the presidential palace, the supreme court, the ministry of justice and the central bank of Taiwan.
The Bo’ai Special Zone is subject to specific regulations, including a strict ban on overflight.
Training yes I’m sure. Training of a specific target? I don’t think so. It only makes sense if you’re really planning to attack that target, which is what makes this shocking. Does America have a mockup Kremlin?
The US, and pretty much everyone, regularly runs “war games” with potential scenarios of real targets. That definitely includes the Kremlin, and other targets from all around the world, it would be naive to think otherwise.
But… simulators have been a thing for some time already, which is why I’m asking. I haven’t been to the ones they’ve built, like:

The only instance I’m aware of where the US military built a specific model meant to be a replica of a real place was the Osama bin Laden compound. Which they did, in fact, raid.
The building of a fake town isn’t the unusual part. The building of a replica of a specific place might not even be that unusual, but it is a strong signal that they definitely intend to attack the real world place that is being replicated.
