A #MarineCorps CH-53K King Stallion transports an F-35C Lightning II airframe.
The airframe was carried to the Prototype, Manufacturing, and Test Department of the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst for use in future emergency recovery systems testing.
Tonight the #Taipei101 was lit up to mark the end of pandemic restrictions in #Taiwan. We want the world to know that #TaiwanIsOpen & we welcome you to our country.
70 PLA aircraft and 11 vessels were detected by 16:00(UTC+8) April 9th. 35 of the detected aircraft had crossed northern, central, and southern median line of the Taiwan Strait and entered our southwest ADIZ.
#Taiwan is our homeland, and no matter where we go or what we encounter, she is always charming and beautiful. Every story on this land is etched in our memories. We, #ROCArmedForces, are fighting with all our heart to defend our homeland and to protect our home together.
Starting soon: bipartisan news conference to share next steps for how America can stay true to our values and remain consistent in our support for the people of Taiwan, who share the American people’s desire to live in peace, freedom, and democracy.
