MPs Say UK Should Send Aircraft Carrier Through Taiwan Strait

MPs Say UK Should Send Aircraft Carrier Through Taiwan Strait The UK should send its aircraft carrier through the Taiwan Strait amid increasing tension in the area, according to some British MPs. However, experts have mixed views on how significant the gesture would be. A British carrier is set to be deployed late next month to the Indo-Pacific region as part of a UK-led freedom of navigation operation. The long-anticipated voyage has been heralded as a warning against Beijing’s bullying of its neighbours in the South China Sea. Robert Clark, a defence researcher at the Henry Jackson Society (HJS), said that the strategic messaging the carrier will send by going to the South China Sea is important.

(Tolga Akmen/AFP/Getty Images) ROME – Sixth-generation Tempest fighters firing laser beams will be able to take out hypersonic missiles in the future, Italy’s military chief of staff has claimed. Gen. Enzo Vecciarelli made the prediction at a Rome seminar on missile defense, stating that directed-energy weapons were “probably the future” when it came to stopping the hypersonic missiles now being developed around the world. Hypersonic technology was a “game changer” which would inflict “devastating” damage on foes, he said, adding: “On Tempest there will be a large amount of energy available and I don’t rule out the use of directed energy” against “missiles of the latest generation, including hypersonic missiles.”
