However, there is not yet training again on the weapons systems that have yet to be delivered. Some of them would be new to the targeting forces.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wong said the commission\u2019s proposal would \u201ctake the template that we already have with the F-16s, which we have delivered in the past,\u201d and apply it to new weapons systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taiwan\u2019s estimated $8 billion purchase of 66 newer F-16 fighters comprises a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/pentagon\/2022\/04\/14\/pandemic-delays-spark-14-billion-backlog-of-us-defense-transfers-to-taiwan\/\" target=\"_blank\"> significant portion of the overall arms sale backlog<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Military maneuvers<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taiwanese Defense Minister Chiu Kuo-cheng told reporters in February that Taipei is sending an undisclosed number of troops to train in the U.S. on weapons systems and military operations, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/u-s-to-expand-troop-presence-in-taiwan-for-training-against-china-threat-62198a83\" target=\"_blank\">The Wall Street Journal<\/a>. The U.S. also deploys a small number of troops on the island to train Taiwanese forces, something President Tsai Ing-wen confirmed in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wang Ting-yu, a member of Taiwan\u2019s legislature from the ruling Democratic Progressive Party who sits on a defense committee, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-asia-67282107\" target=\"_blank\">told the BBC last week<\/a> that Taiwan plans to send two battalions of ground troops to the United States. A battalion in Taiwan can consist of up to 600 troops, marking a significant increase in Taiwanese troops training in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe U.S. is emphasizing the desperate need to improve our military capacity. It is sending a clear message of strategic clarity to Beijing that we stand together,\u201d Wang said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taiwan\u2019s diplomatic office in Washington did not respond to Defense News\u2019 request for comment, and the Pentagon would neither confirm nor deny plans to train Taiwanese troops on U.S. soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe do not comment on specific operations, engagements or training, but I would highlight that our support for and defense relationship with Taiwan remains aligned against the current threat posed by the People\u2019s Republic of China,\u201d Pentagon spokesman John Supple told Defense News. \u201cOur commitment to Taiwan is rock solid and contributes to the maintenance of peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait and within the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China considers Taiwan a rogue province and has threatened to retake it by force if necessary. President Xi Jinping has set 2027 as the year China\u2019s military would be ready for a possible operation against Taiwan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China frequently objects to U.S.-Taiwan military ties and is particularly sensitive to actions it construes as recognizing the island as an independent state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cConsistent with the Taiwan Relations Act, the United States makes available to Taiwan defense articles and services necessary to enable it to maintain a sufficient self-defense capability,\u201d Supple said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Capitol Hill commission says Taiwanese troops should train in the U.S., but plans may already be in the
