U.S. Congress Approves NT$9.7 Billion Military Aid to Taiwan; 38 M1A2T Tanks Delivered, 122 Expected
Dec 20, 2024, 12:02 PM
The U.S. Congress has approved a defense act that allocates NT$9.7 billion in military aid to Taiwan. This comes as Taiwan has received 38 M1A2T Abrams tanks from the United States, marking the first delivery of U.S. tanks to the island in 23 years. The tanks were delivered after a five-year wait, highlighting the ongoing backlog in arms deliveries amid rising tensions with China. Taiwan is expected to receive a total of 122 M1A2T tanks over the next two years. The recent military aid and equipment deliveries reflect the U.S.'s commitment to supporting Taiwan's defense capabilities.
