Biden’s first arms sale to Taiwan gets State Department approval. $750mn in artillery gear & smart bomb kits.
The US State Department authorized a $750 million arms sale to Taiwan, President Joe Biden’s first weapons transfer to the island following a flurry of deals under his predecessor – all over vocal objections from Beijing.

Announced Wednesday, the proposed sale involves 40 155mm self-propelled artillery guns and related gear, a number of vehicles and machine guns, as well as nearly 1,700 precision guidance kits used to convert ‘dumb’ projectiles into GPS-guided munitions, according to a State Department notice to Congress.

The administration claimed the sale would serve “US national, economic and security interests” by supporting Taipei’s “continuing efforts to modernize its armed forces and maintain a credible defensive capability,” as well as “assist in maintaining political stability” in the region.

Taiwan doesn't need precision guided bombs. They are not planning to bomb China.

Those are offensive weapons that will end up in the hands of China when they invade and "Unify"

Why not sell them aegis missile defense systems and early warning radar systems and aircraft ?

Biden making it look like he supports Taiwan, all the while he is handing over weapons to our enemy.
