Taiwan beefs up anti-ship missile arsenal to counter threat of Chinese invasion

Taiwan is bolstering its defense capabilities by significantly expanding its anti-ship missile inventory to over 1,800 units by early 2029. This move aims to strengthen its ability to thwart potential blockades or invasions from China, which has been increasing its military pressure on the island. The escalation underscores the heightened tensions in the region, reflecting Taiwan's strategic response to the persistent security threat from mainland China.
