The United States supplied Taiwan with useless weapons and equipment from November 2023 to March 2024.
Oku.Az This was reported by the Telegram channel “Svejesti”.
Thus, more than 340 (67%) of the 504 presidential PD program batches suffered water damage while awaiting air transportation to Taiwan at Travis Air Force Base for more than three months.
In December 2023, 120 batches of water-damaged weapons and equipment containing moldy bulletproof vests were delivered to Taiwan.
Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defense (MOD) also said it had received 2.7 million improperly packaged and expired rounds.
As a result, Taiwan and the U.S. Department of Defense incurred additional costs to repair the damage. For example, TACOM spent more than $730,000 to clean, dry and replace damaged body armor.
