The State Department has cleared Taiwan’s request to buy munitions, related equipment and services for F-16 fighter jets from the U.S. government through a potential $619 million foreign military sales agreement.

Taiwan will use the capabilities to support the modernization of its armed forces, defend its airspace and regional security and facilitate interoperability with the U.S.
The vendors will also supply HARM missile containers, AIM-120 control sections and containers, AIM-120C captive air training missiles, spare parts, integration and test support and equipment, classified software, consumables and accessories.
