Abstract

In late April 2007, Taiwan news agencies reported that the country’s military had employed newly developed shore-based land-attack cruise missiles in a computer-simulated war with China to take out military installations across the 70 nautical mile-wide Taiwan Strait.1 This was the first time Taiwan military publicly admitted its development of offensive weapons systems after decades of speculations. A week later in a press conference, the de facto US ambassador in Taiwan Stephen Young expressed the American government’s opposition to Taiwan’s development of offensive missiles.2
