台湾接收首批两架美制F-16V 66架军售延宕近三年后开始交付
台湾国防部证实，首批两架新建造的 F-16V Block 70 战机（编号6727、6728）已于10月2日中午飞抵台东志航基地，经夏威夷、关岛转场抵达。
这批飞机是2019年美国批准的66架、约80亿美元军售的首批交付，因软件整合与供应链问题延期近三年。国防部长顾立雄表示，年内还会有更多架交付；全部到位后台军 F-16V 总数将超过200架。
路透社指出，该军售是美台防务合作的重要一环，交付进度长期受到各界关注。（GSM 据路透社、中央社报道编译）
Taiwan Takes Delivery of First Two U.S.-Built F-16Vs
Taiwan's defense ministry confirmed that the first two newly built F-16V Block 70 jets (tail numbers 6727 and 6728) arrived at Taitung's Chihhang Air Base at noon on Oct. 2, ferrying in via Hawaii and Guam.
They are the first deliveries from the 66-jet, roughly $8 billion U.S. sale approved in 2019, delayed nearly three years by software and supply-chain issues. Defense Minister Wellington Koo said more jets will arrive this year, taking Taiwan's F-16V fleet past 200 once complete.
Reuters notes the sale is a cornerstone of U.S.-Taiwan defense cooperation. (GSM, from Reuters and CNA reporting)
