This move is being taken as part of an effort to modernize its military and improve its air defense capabilities in the face of growing tensions due to China’s military expansion in the region. For Taiwan, the decision for modernization is not going to be easy, as the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) just received its 300th J-20, a fifth-generation fighter jet, earlier this month.
Which leaked report highlighted China’s potential military threat to Taiwan by 2027?
