TAIPEI — Taiwan is scheduled to take delivery next month of a
powerful multiple-launch rocket system aimed at neutralizing former

The weapon, called Ray Ting 2000 or “Thunder 2000”, will be put into service in August, said the Taipei-based Liberty Times, as the military plans to phase out the current rocket system introduced three decades ago.
“After it is armed with the new weapons, the military will see its anti-landing capability be greatly enhanced,” said an unnamed military source quoted by the newspaper.
Taiwan defense ministry officials were unavailable for comment on the report.
