MILITARYSep 22Taiwan coastguard’s rare missile firing reveals deepening links with navyTaiwan’s coastguard fired a supersonic anti-ship missile during a military exercise last week, an unusual move by a civilian law enforcement agency that analysts say could be aimed at complicating potential war plans.
