So they lower the standard and still they get fewer candidates, they will blame demographics instead of the Chinese threats...lol
The exercises are having the desired effect.
Exercise will continue until morale improves.
Chinese warships stayed at least 24 nautical miles away from Taiwan’s coast during recent military drills despite warnings from Beijing that they could come well within the island’s territorial waters, according to senior government officials in Taipei.
Taiwan’s government had prepared a range of measures aimed at defending its sovereignty without further escalating tensions if Chinese warships ventured closer to the Taiwanese coastline, said the officials, who asked not to be identified as they weren’t authorized to discuss security matters publicly.
While China displayed an ability to resupply ships during the exercises, Taiwan’s military had been prepared for Beijing to conduct even more provocative measures that would’ve forced the island to take action, Taipei officials said.
Unless the ROC govt has actual pictures to back up their claims they can be safely disregarded considering the PLAN already had pictures of themselves operating within 12 nm from last time.
Magic missing is understandable since they are way past expiration date. The AIM-9 that missed has no good excuse, especially against a slow target with large heat signature.
That's some wasted Taiwanese taxpayer dollar right there, how is it supposed to survive in airspace dominated by PLAAF J-20s and AWACs? Not to mention the prices they paid for only a small handful of them.
