The shore fish fork missile system was a major military sales case announced by the Trump administration one week before the vote of the US presidential election in 2020.The week before the election, Mei announced the four military sales cases in one breath, and announced before 2020, a total of more than 20.8 billion US dollars (S $ 27.7 billion).This year is 2023, and there is no major military sales equipment to Taiwan. It is no wonder that the Blue Commission is ridiculed to face the situation of the Taiwan Strait. There is no use of weapons that do not exist.
The major military sales equipment that has not been delivered so far, in addition to the shore-setting fish fork missiles, there are also M1A2T tanks, Hemas multi-pipe rocket systems, new F-16V fighters, MQ-9 drones, andPerson -type thorns missiles and so on.
Now even the United States knows that it is aware of losses, and its public opinion representative comes to Taiwan.The chairman of the committee, McCal, recently visited Taiwan even more bluntly that if the United States fails to produce, it will coordinate the allies to provide priority to Taiwan.
The military sales case is confidential, and it is difficult to peep the whole picture of the outside world. Taiwan and the United States have not mentioned the delay in the delivery plot. Some cases have been announced in 2018 or earlier or earlier.For five years, I couldn't see the equipment in the army, and could not hide it. Therefore, the Ministry of Defense set up a "Tiger Group" to ensure that it was obtained as early as possible with the Taiwan military video conference to ensure that the "multi -military purchase of the military purchase was"Way", please ask other suppliers or allies for sale to help Taiwan get installed immediately.
Buying the shore -setting fish fork missile is right. Due to actual combat verification, the military also compiled a special budget, allowing the Chinese Academy of Sciences to build a plant to accelerate the mass production of male -style missiles. Since mainland China last year, the shore -setting fish fork missile was early.The installation of into the army is already the top priority. It is rumored that the United States intends to sell the missiles sold to Saudi Arabia and transfer it to the Taiwan military first.
According to the Washington Post, the United States still has a $ 19 billion weapon without transportation; this is a huge number. However, how many military sales have paid in Taiwan?Can you have a penalty for late?The Tsai government responded to the public explanation of the people of Taiwan.
