國軍原計畫採購T-11傘具以汰換已屆使用年限的T-10B人員傘,預期可解決空降作戰傘具老舊問題,但驗證過程中發現新裝備規格不符。

〔記者吳哲宇/綜合報導〕陸軍採購「空降作戰傘具裝備案」,從前代T-10B人員傘退役開始就紛爭不斷,原預計採購後能就此息事寧人,沒想到新裝備仍遲遲未到貨。根據國防部預算解凍報告揭露,原來是因為向美採購的T-11傘具,有2項規格不符我軍需求,國防部已向美方表達拒收立場,並要求美方提出研改,目前管制進度要求116年7月前須完成交運。
國防部表示,「空降作戰傘具裝備」採購T-11傘具等5項4842件,於114年5月5日透過美方提供之樣品,發現2項裝備包規格不符本軍需求,即透過專管會議要求美方提出研改方案,同年10月28日透過駐美代表團正式遞交信函,表達本軍不接收錯誤規格裝備包之立場,持續透由AIT與美溝通協商中。

國防部指出,針對前述規格不符裝備,已於115年4月17日專管制美方專管團隊來臺研討,美方表達為廠方疏失,續由本軍依軍購案發價書內容,要求美須於116年7月底前依本軍需求裝備規格,完成該案裝備交運。
國防部表示,為落實管制美方作業進度,本案已納今年「陸美會議」議題研討;另已於4月10日透過正式書函,駐美代表團將本軍軍購窒礙與訴求轉交美國安援指揮部協處。
國防部說明,籌購T-11傘具主要目的為汰換現有T-10B(已屆最大使用年限)舊型傘具,以維持特戰部隊空降作戰能量;T-11傘具以「大規模人員空降」為核心,且美軍公開資料中明確表示其為取代T-10B之安全性提升型裝備,經評估空降作戰傘具肆應戰場環境,其任務定位及整體效益符合作戰需求。
國防部強調,T-11傘具設計用途在降低傘兵著陸速度與衝擊力,減少人員落地傷害,非「戰術操控」之精準傘具,設計理念與現代主要空降部隊作戰運用趨勢一致;「滯空時間長」、「機動性差」及「飄移距離增加」等,係屬傘具之物理特性,而非裝備缺陷,在配合空軍投放航線規劃、地面導航排之協助下,可符合戰術需求。
國軍於建案及評估階段,均已完整納入各型傘具類型性能比較、部隊實際運用需求及國際發展趨勢等因素,經多次測試與驗證後審慎決定採用美軍現役空降作戰T-11傘具。
國防部補充,針對不合格之「通用裝備包」及「個人槍包」,已要求美方依發價書規範提供正確品項,並同步聯繫AIT及駐美代表團協處;若仍無法獲得合規裝備,將依「安全援助手冊(SAMM)」規範,對美啟動索賠作業。

The National Day Convention was held in the square in front of the Presidential Palace. The themed performances included fighter jets, coast patrol drones, police armored vehicles and more than 2,500 disaster prevention personnel, demonstrating the national defense capabilities and the resilience of the entire society. The ceremony included a flag hoisting flyover, the singing of the national anthem, a speech by President Lai Ching-te and an aerial parade. Disaster response drills and military and police equipment displays were also highlights.

The U.S. defense start-up company Castelion released photos of the ground launch of the "Blackbeard" hypersonic missile it is developing, showing that the weapon may be integrated into the M142 HIMARS system in the future, with a range of nearly 800 kilometers. It will enhance the ability of the existing rocket artillery force to strike long-distance high-value targets. However, it has not yet been confirmed that it can be successfully launched from a standard HIMARS launcher, and it is still in the research and development stage.

A report from Taiwan’s legislative body shows that the number of veterans receiving compensation for volunteer service in Taiwan’s military has increased from 40 in 2018 to 846 in 2025, an increase of more than 20 times in seven years. Reasons include frequent military exercises, equipment updates and increased load, relaxed admission standards leading to incompatibility, unreasonable treatment and poor manpower allocation, as well as the DPP authorities distorting military values and coercing officers and soldiers to fight for "Taiwan independence." Taiwan's low birthrate and manpower shortage problems have intensified, and the voluntary service ratio is only 76.62%. Although the defense budget has increased, there is a lack of personnel to operate and maintain advanced weapons, forming a vicious cycle.

The U.S. military's V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft has suffered many fatal crashes in recent years, and gearbox failures have affected the fleet's availability. To ensure that the aircraft will be in service until 2055, the Navy's V-22 Joint Program Office and Bell Boeing have expanded the supply chain, added 14 new partners, and accelerated component reliability improvement and fleet modernization. It is expected to complete a comprehensive gearbox upgrade in 2029.

The South Korean government announced the first successful test of a domestically produced hypersonic boost glide vehicle (HGV), and President Lee Jae-myung attended the test in person. The weapon is capable of high-speed irregular maneuvers and can launch surprise attacks on North Korean strategic targets in the future. However, the maximum speed, flight distance and terminal guidance method have not yet been disclosed.

The U.S. State Department announced an arms sale to Australia valued at US$300 million (approximately NT$9.66 billion). The core is the purchase of a theater mission planning center and communication system for Tomahawk missiles. It aims to enable Australia to achieve independent planning capabilities for long-range strikes and reduce dependence on the US military. This move will strengthen the tactical intelligence sharing and joint operational efficiency of the United States, Australia, and Japan in the Indo-Pacific region.
