On the eve of the National Day of the Republic of China, the CCP military aircraft code-named "YILO4200" once again harassed Taiwan's southwest airspace at an altitude of 7,000 meters. The Chinese military closely monitored and issued broadcasts in Chinese and English to sternly drive them away, emphasizing that they were conducting routine training to safeguard the security of our country’s airspace.

Faced with the expansion of Russian and Chinese nuclear weapons, the U.S. Navy awarded five prototype research and development agreements with a total value of US$744 million through the Strategic Systems Program Office to promote the nuclear-armed sea-launched cruise missile (SLCM-N) project. It is expected to be integrated into Virginia-class submarines, enter the system development stage in 2028, and be fully mass-produced in 2034. However, it will occupy the space of traditional Tomahawk missiles and increase the burden of nuclear weapons.

The USS Lincoln returned to its home port of San Diego, California on October 8 after more than 300 days of deployment at sea, ending a record of 265 consecutive days without docking. During the deployment, there were reports that life on the ship deteriorated, and at least eight service members attempted suicide, raising concerns about the impact of long deployments on the mental health of service members.

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the public will be able to watch a live broadcast of Nadal Malik Hassan's execution by firing squad in what would be the first public execution in the U.S. in nearly a century. Hassan was sentenced to death for shooting 13 unarmed U.S. soldiers at the Fort Hood military base in Texas in 2009. His execution date is set for December 3. Although Trump has approved the decision, legal experts have questioned its legality, noting that Hassan's appeal process has not yet concluded and that the live broadcast of the execution may face platform policy restrictions and ethical disputes.

The Haikun submarine is only about 2.5 months away from the delivery deadline promised by Taiwanese ships by the end of this year, but it has been fined tens of millions of dollars by the navy due to the delay of nearly a year. Former Navy consultant Guo Xi pointed out that failure to replace the IPMS system will lead to sea survey problems, such as torpedo tubes needing to be fired manually and the combat situation center unable to command. He questioned that only two torpedo tubes have been tested for mine operation. He suggested that the replacement of IPMS be worth 10 to 20 million, but Taiwan Shipbuilding did not respond. At present, the Haikun only has subjects such as overnight sea endurance and deep submersible tests. It will continue to dock at the dock for adjustment after the sea test on October 2.

The U.S. Navy plans to award Raytheon a single-source contract to initiate low-rate initial mass production of the Joint Multiple Effects Warhead System (JMEWS) and integrate the warhead into the Tomahawk Block Vb missile to enhance its ability to strike hard targets such as underground bunkers and missile sites. The cooperation is based on Raytheon's long-term status as the sole supplier of Tomahawk missiles. Other manufacturers can still submit capability statements before October 22.
