Launched with a built-in rocket, they are guided by a propeller engine before crashing into their targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"5000\" height=\"3334\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP22319510718421.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"A helicopter drone is flown during a demonstration for members of the media at the National Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology in Taichung in central Taiwan on Tuesday, Nov. 15, 2022.\" class=\"wp-image-117147\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP22319510718421.jpg.jpg 5000w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP22319510718421.jpg.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP22319510718421.jpg.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP22319510718421.jpg.jpg?resize=1024,683 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP22319510718421.jpg.jpg?resize=1536,1024 1536w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP22319510718421.jpg.jpg?resize=2048,1366 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5000px) 100vw, 5000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A helicopter drone is flown during a demonstration for members of the media at the National Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology in Taichung in central Taiwan on Tuesday, Nov. 15, 2022.

Chi emphasized their importance in relaying images to the army\u2019s command and communication systems for analysis and forwarding to combat units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taiwan has also developed the Teng Yun, which resembles the American MQ-9 Reaper unmanned aerial vehicle and can stay aloft for up to 24 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the U.S. and others have long used drones in the targeting of alleged terrorists and others, they have proved especially important in the Russian war on Ukraine. Moscow has imported drones from Iran while Kyiv has found success with inexpensive Bayraktar TB2 unmanned aerial vehicles from Turkey, which carry lightweight, laser-guided bombs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/battlefield-tech\/2022\/11\/10\/china-shows-off-air-launched-hypersonic-missile-at-airshow-near-taiwan\/\" target=\"_blank\">China<\/a>, meanwhile, has forged ahead with developing its own drones, some models of which have been exported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/news\/2022\/08\/08\/china-extends-threatening-military-exercises-around-taiwan\/\" target=\"_blank\">upped its military threat against Taiwan in August<\/a> in response to a visit by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to the island. It shot missiles over the island and held live-fire military drills in six self-declared zones in what appeared to be a rehearsal for a potential blockade and invasion of the island that would almost certainly draw in Taiwan\u2019s chief supporter, the United States, along with American allies including Japan and Australia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taiwan displayed its
