Taipei, Sep 13 (EFE/EPA).- The Taipei Aerospace and Defence Technology Exhibition 2023, which commenced with a media preview on Wednesday, prominently displayed Taiwan's military capabilities, featuring an array of both land and air-based missiles.

At the heart of Taiwan's defense strategy lies the ambitious "Five-Year Force Augmentation Plan," which aims to produce 7,700 military-grade UAVs by 2028.

This plan extends beyond UAV production, encompassing a broader defence agenda characterized by increased foreign arms acquisitions, the advancement of domestic defence technologies, and the implementation of comprehensive training and recruitment initiatives. (Camera: RITCHIE B. TONGO).
