The US defense industry is planned to send delegations to visit Taiwan in early May. This will be the US defense industry representatives to Taiwan again after four years.
Rupert Hammond-Chambers, president of the US-Taiwan Commercial Association, told the Japanese Economic News that about 25 US defense contractors will send representatives to Taiwan to discuss the joint production of drones and ammunition.
The Japanese Economic News reported on April 11 that Steven Rudder, the retired commander of the Pacific Navy Marine Corps, will lead the team to visit Taiwan.In addition to holding talks with the Taiwan defense industry representatives, the delegation also hopes to meet with Taiwan Cai Yingwen.
Han Rubo said that Cai Yingwen paid attention to how to strengthen Taiwan's defense industry. The purpose of the delegation was to promote cooperation with Taiwan's defense industry.He also said that Taiwan is interested in drones and ammunition.
The United States delegation will also find the opportunity to provide advanced technologies and jointly develop drones with Taiwan companies.A number of U.S. defense contractors with professional knowledge of drones will visit Taiwan together.
American companies generally need to obtain government approval before they can jointly produce weapons with overseas partners.The United States is open to the idea of joint production weapons, mainly because US defense contractors encounter challenges in responding to domestic and overseas demand.
The United States has also urged some European countries to sell weapons to Taiwan.The weapons purchased from overseas from overseas have almost come from the United States in recent years.
