Are the latest patriot missiles an opiate for Taiwan.
- 2008
Recently announced American arms sale to Taiwan. The US department of defence told the congress in November 2007, that the administration had agree to sell US $940 million (NT$30 billion) worth of patriot missile system upgrades to Taiwan. Taiwanese military already possesses the enhanced PAC-2 patriot missiles but still eager to pursue the acquisition of PAC -3 missiles. Could the PAC-3 often so highly regarded, effectively defend the Taiwan island?.
