Here's What You Need to Remember: The goal wasn’t to give local residents
an impromptu air show. It was a survival exercise on how the Taiwanese air
force, known as the Republic of China Air Force, will cope when its
permanent airbases are knocked out.
Last year, Taiwanese jets landed on a highway as part of a military drill—
the first such drill in five years. “Three fighter jets, as well as an
early warning aircraft, practiced refueling and loading missiles and other
ammunition before taking off again,” according to Taiwanese media. “An F-
16V jet, a Mirage 2000-5, an Indigenous Defense Fighter and an E-2K airborne
early warning aircraft landed on the Huatan section of the Sun Yat-sen
Freeway (Freeway No. 1) in Changhua County at about 6 a.m.” |
