Lai pledges to build 'T-Dome' air defense system in National Day address
Posted on 2025-10-10 13:28:13
President Lai Ching-te has pledged to strengthen Taiwan's air defenses by
developing a new "T-Dome" system, designed to form a comprehensive safety net
against growing military threats from China.

In his National Day address today, Lai said the system will feature
multi-layered defense, high-level detection, and effective interception,
integrating AI and advanced technologies to build a "smart defense combat
system".

He reaffirmed Taiwan's goal to raise defense spending to 3 percent of GDP
next year and 5 percent by 2030, emphasizing that "peace is won through
strength".

While details remain undisclosed, a Reuters report says the T-Dome—modeled
after Israel's Iron Dome—will defend against missiles, rockets, drones, and
aircraft, with initial integration expected to begin soon.
