Taipei, Nov. 2 (CNA) The first six Apache attack helicopters purchased from the United States will arrive in Taiwan Nov. 4, the military said Saturday.
The six AH-64Es will be part of an order of 30 of the most advanced U.S. attack helicopters that the military bought for NT$59.31 billion (US$2.01 billion) in 2008. The last batch should be delivered by the end of 2014.
Taiwan will be the world's first country other than the United States to deploy this type of attack chopper.
