Aerial refueling capabilities could boost Taiwan's regional air superiority

[moonstone_laura]

From 'Taiwan News':

"The Ministry of National Defenses’ Institute of National Defense and Strategic Research (INDSR) said that aerial refueling aircraft for Taiwan’s F-16 fleet would help the nation maintain air superiority in its air defense identification zone (ADIZ).

The researcher said that if Taiwan obtained aerial refueling tankers, it would extend the airborne time and combat radius of its F-16 fleet, consisting of 146 F-16 A/Bs and 66 newly ordered F-16 Block 70s."

What a shame they need boom fillers? I know where there is/was some cheap Tristars to tide them over. & maybe a couple of VC-10's?
