Taiwan wants VSTOL fighters, report claims

Taiwan hopes to maintain air operations in the event of a military conflict with China by using vertical and short take-off and landing aircraft. VSTOL fighters would allow Taiwan to maintain fighter operations should Chinese missiles damage the island's military runways . . . The report quotes former Taiwanese air force commander Liu Guili as saying: "The air force is open to any kind of VSTOL fighters, and is not necessarily aiming for the US [Lockheed Martin F-35] Joint Strike Fighter that is in development."

RoCAF AV-8B+?  Yeah! Why not?

"Someone" (forgot who it was) did some rather nice profiles for Singaporean Harriers. Same premise of possibly knocked-out landing strips.
