Modified HF-2 AshMs for land attack, with a range of 200km to 300km. I just heard it from CNN, with Taiwan threatening to launch these missiles tit for tat. I guess tests have completed and they’re looking to deploy it. Surprised no one seems to have caught and posted it.

The so called TW deterrence is based on the Ti Ching MRBM program. The first test launched appeared to have occurred in Sept 2003 with a range of 900km (expected range is supposed to be between 1000-1500km). There were reports then, but they seems to be confused with the LACM program.
I am surprised that there is no US pressure to end this program since it had been openly reported in Janes entry on ROC and they did pressure TW to end the earlier Tien Ma system

I believe TW just test-fired AGM-84s, which might pose somewhat of a threat to the domestic industry…?

You just did, didn’t you? 😉
Seriously, any news on seeker, warhead, and launcher?
