Helps Taiwan make secure drones, boosting U.S. national security and protecting supply chains.
This bill would help Taiwan develop and produce secure drones, also known as Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). This aims to protect Taiwan from China's increasing use of drones and other tactics. It also ensures the U.S. has access to drone parts not sourced from China. This would strengthen U.S. national security and support Taiwan's defense.
Today, many commercially available drones contain parts from China, creating security and supply chain risks for the U.S. and Taiwan. This bill would change that by creating a working group to boost Taiwan's drone production, establishing a cooperative framework with allies to build secure drone supply chains, and developing a fast-track certification process for Taiwanese drone companies to ensure their products are secure and independent of China.
