Why Taiwanese concealed Hellfire launcher would be nasty surprise for China ?

August 21, 2025, 9:04 pm

🚀 A compelling concept has been revealed in Taiwan.
Taiwan’s armed forces have unveiled a concealed launch system for AGM-114 Hellfire missiles, disguised within what appears to be a standard civilian truck. According to Taiwanese officials, this truck-mounted system provides a flexible new way to employ Hellfires, particularly valuable if its airborne platforms – AH-1W SuperCobra and AH-64E Apache attack helicopters are constrained by heavy air defense threats.

Its mobility and low visual profile make it harder to detect, offering a potent option for strengthening coastal defenses against a potential Chinese amphibious assault.
The system was featured in a newly released video from the Military News Agency, the official media arm of Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defense (MND). Development of the launcher was carried out by the MND’s Armaments Bureau, specifically the 209th Arsenal.
