During a legislative inquiry, concerns were raised by KMT legislator Wang Hongwei about the long delay in US arms deliveries to Taiwan, amounting to $19.7 billion, urging Defense Minister Gu to accelerate the implementation of arms sales by requesting the US Department of Defense's 'TIGER Team' to take action. Minister Gu revealed that Taiwan and the US are exploring the possibility of joint production, anticipating a significant reduction in military spending peaks in the next two years. The delays in arms sales and the potential local production were discussed in light of international military activities and future military technology developments like AI and unmanned vehicles.
