Taipei, July 14 (CNA) U.S.-imported FIM-92 Stinger shoulder-fired missiles made a rare public appearance during early-morning drills in the Taipei Metro simulating a Chinese invasion.
The exercises, part of the Han Kuang drills, featured Military Police troops carrying Stingers, machine guns, 40mm grenade launchers and anti-armor rockets, and were held between Shandao Temple Station and Longshan Temple Station while the metro was closed to passengers.
The Ministry of National Defense (MND) said the exercises simulated Taiwanese troops using the metro system to quickly reach a target area and engage the enemy.
