“Speaking strictly from my heart as a retired officer I would never doubt—not even for one second, that the mass majority of our soldiers and officer corps are dedicated to defending the country, and Taiwan can expect every one of them to do their duty on the battlefield—however much equipment is working,” Yu said.
I think the new F16 repair center is a step in this model.
Taiwan has defense needs.
Hence, Taiwan had the most F16s in the region.
As a bonus, Taiwan will make some money off repairing F16s for others in the region.
