美國當局此刻批准軍售台灣總值64億美元武器

美國當局此刻批准軍售台灣總值64億美元的戰略物資，包括20架阿帕奇功攻擊直昇機、330枚愛國者3型防空飛彈、魚鏢反艦導彈、Javalin反裝甲飛彈等等。但是原提案欲取得的武器包括F-16戰機、柴油動力潛艇、暨60架黑鷲戰鬥直昇機則被美國當局否決。這一決定已由美國國務院通知我方，小布希時代對台灣最後一批軍售，到此告一段落。

The official notification just took place in the past couple of hours (Friday afternoon). Prior to that, there were of course intensive consultations between the Administration and Congress.

The total package involves some US 6.4 bln , and does include 20 Apache helicopters, 330 PAC-3 missiles, Harpoon anti-ship missiles and Javelin anti-tank missiles.



What is NOT in there: F-16s, submarines (which was expected) , but also not 60 Blackhawk helicopters, which were part of the original package.



The PC3 Orions were already approved earlier.
