The Biden administration has given the green light for the sale of $360 million worth of drones, missiles, and other military gear to Taiwan. This decision comes at a time of escalating tensions between the United States and China, with Beijing expressing disapproval of Western support for Taiwan.
The approved sale includes 291 Altius-600M unmanned aerial vehicles equipped with warheads, as well as 720 Switchblade drones, also known as 'extended-range loitering munitions,' according to the State Department.
