Taiwan procured two types of attack drones from the United States, including 658 sets of Switchblade 300s for personnel strikes and 291 sets of Altius 600Ms for anti-armor purposes. Fluctuating prices have raised questions among legislators. When the case was presented to the Legislative Yuan last year, the amount was over NT$6 billion (about US$183 million). In June this year, the U.S. Department of Defense announced the amount to be US$360.2 million. By the end of August, the United States submitted a quotation to Taiwan, reducing the amount to NT$5.5 billion (about US$168 million). The Ministry of National Defense hopes to use the extra funds to purchase more anti-armor drones from the United States, but legislators have not agreed and requested further communication from the military.
