Taiwan in talks with US firms on military copter deals - report
Taiwan and Bell Helicopter-Textron have launched talks on co-manufacturing UH-1Y Huey light utility and AH-1Z King Cobra attack helicopters, according to Jane's defense weekly.
UH-1Y is needed to replace Taiwan's fleet of Bell UH-1Hs, which are nearing the end of their service life after 32 years.
Sikorsky has proposed its UH-60 Black Hawk while Boeing is proposing the AH-64D Apache Longbow to fulfil the attack helicopter requirement.
