賴強調,台灣位於第一島鏈的關鍵位置,我們不只有堅定的決心捍衛台海和平;也堅信唯有實力才能確保和平,期待能與美國進一步深化國防合作,從軍事採購逐步走向共同研發、共同生產,提升雙方國防產業的韌性與量能;特別是在建置無人機及反無人機系統、運用AI輔助軍事決策、以及提升後勤作戰效能等方面,能有更多合作,共同為印太的和平穩定做出更多貢獻。

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.

The USS Lincoln aircraft carrier returned to San Diego after 321 days of deployment. The outer wall of the ship island displayed 103 drones and 34 ship kill marks. Secretary of War Hegseth boarded the ship to check the markings, but the numbers were different from the official results of 77 drones and 64 ships announced by the US military. The reason has not yet been explained.

Taiwan's first two F-16V Block 70 fighter jets arrived at Taitung's Zhihang Base on October 2. Strategy expert Liao Hongxiang pointed out that Taiwan's air force base has four major weaknesses: short geographical warning time, weak ground defense forces, insufficient physical bunker capacity, and traditional machine fortress protection blind spots. If the protection is not upgraded simultaneously, it may become the enemy's precision attack target. He suggested six specific actions, including establishing a layered protection system, strengthening machine fort protection, and expanding the monitoring scope.

China is conducting the most systematic effort among outside powers to learn from the drone war in Ukraine, with analysts updating battlefield techniques within four months, but it typically takes a year or more for these lessons to appear in PLA training, equipment, or force structure, according to a CSIS analysis.

The Pentagon confirmed that Hassan, the murderer of the 2009 Fort Hood military base shooting, will be executed by firing squad on December 3 and live broadcast online. This will be the first execution by the US military in more than 60 years and the first publicly broadcast live firing squad execution since World War II. Defense Minister Hegseth said the execution time would be 1 p.m. that day to correspond with the time and place of the crime, emphasizing that the public should see the consequences of evil deeds. Legal experts pointed out that Hassan may still file a habeas corpus petition, delaying its execution. Death penalty experts believe that live streaming can increase transparency and allow the public to understand the full picture of the death penalty.

The Bangan Military Airport jointly built by China and Laos has been put into operation. Satellite images show that there are about eight K-8 training aircraft and support vehicles. Experts believe that the facility is currently mainly used as a training center, but it may become the starting point for China to establish a long-term military presence in Southeast Asia, triggering security concerns among neighboring countries such as Vietnam about being "enemies on all sides."
