U.S. Typhon Missile Launcher Arrives in the Philippines | Taiwan Talks EP362

The U.S.-made Typhon missile launcher is a weapon not before seen in the Indo-Pacific, and the U.S. Army is calling its arrival in the Philippines a landmark in regional capacity. Analysts say its presence sends a signal the U.S. can put offensive weaponry well within striking distance of Chinese installations in the South China Sea, China proper and along the Taiwan Strait. Beijing says it increases “misjudgment and miscalculation” and that Washington is seeking a “unilateral advantage.” Our guests: Lee Ting-shen Institute for National Defense and Security Research Deputy Chief Executive Officer Sherwin E.
