"The upgrades to Taiwan's 146 F-16 A/Bs are worth around $4.2 billion and
include an AESA radar system, according to a Taiwan defense official. The
AESA system can track a larger number of targets without its signals being
detected, and is installed on most C/D versions.
"The upgrades also include more advanced air-to-air missiles and a helmet-
mounted targeting system which allows pilots to aim at targets just by
looking at them, freeing their hands to execute combat maneuvers, according
to another person familiar with the matter.
"'The upgraded A/Bs will provide essentially C/D quality planes,' one U.S.
administration official said.
"The upgrades do not, however, include new engines, meaning the planes will
still be slower than the C/D versions
"Shuai Hua-ming 帥化民, a Kuomintang legislator and member of Taiwan's
Foreign Affairs and National Defense Committee, said the suggestion that the
upgraded A/Bs were equivalent to the C/Ds was 'not a very honest opinion.'

My comment: The report was wrong in describing Prof Lin as "helped found the
school’s public health department in 1993."
What wa founded in 1993 was College of Public Health. The Department of
Public Health was founded in 1972, but the part of College of Medicine.

("台湾曾经在今年5月份出席世卫大会(WHA)时抗议在世界卫生组织(WHO)的名称被矮化
的问题。欧洲议会友台小组在6月份也为台湾发出了抗议信函。不过，台湾在野的民进
党立委管碧玲透露，世卫组织给欧洲议会友台小组的回信当中认定，依照世界卫生大会
第25.1号决议，世界卫生组织持续认定中国台湾是中国的一部分。这封信还说，联合国
及其他国际组织也采取类似的决定并加以执行，除非世卫大会决议有所改变，否则秘书
处将持续遵守这个决议的字义及精神")
