Taiwan deploys U.S.-made Stingers and Javelins in Taipei to boost air and ground defenses amid rising Chinese threats.
Taiwan’s 202nd Military Police Command has established a new air-defense company in Taipei’s Shilin District, equipping it with U.S.-made Stinger missiles and Javelin anti-tank systems to strengthen the capital’s mobile air and ground defenses.
The unit, part of the 228th Battalion, is part of broader military restructuring aimed at countering regional threats, including increased Chinese military activity.
The command has doubled active-duty personnel to 10,000 since 2024 and now coordinates with reserve forces to secure critical infrastructure.
Experts support the deployment, citing improved readiness against surprise aerial and amphibious attacks, and recommend adopting defense models used by the U.S. and South Korea.
