Legislature approves NT$8.8 billion 2026 defense procurement budget
Posted on 2026-05-29 16:16:13
The Legislative Yuan has approved a special defence budget of more than 8.81
billion NT for purchases of five U.S. weapons systems.

The vote comes just days before this Sunday's payment deadline for HI-MARS
rocket systems, which make up one part of the package.

The budget also includes funding for self-propelled howitzers, anti-armour
drones and two types of anti-tank missiles.

The entire package will be financed through government borrowing.

Earlier this month, lawmakers approved a special arms procurement framework
allowing up to 780 billion NT in U.S. weapons purchases between 2026 and
2033.

That includes 300 billion NT for weapons already approved by Washington and
480 billion NT for a future package that has yet to be formally announced.

This year's 8.81 billion NT allocation is the first funding package under
that plan.
