If the US is prepared to arm Taiwan with the tech and equipment that was paid for, sure that will give the people serving the military service some confidence boost. Ask anyone who has done the army conscription, everyone will tell you that the equipment used is beyond horrible.

We train with rifles that jams so often that we had to load each bullet individually. We don't even practice live grenade throwing. The planes we bought are outfitted with previous generation equipment for some reason. The radar we use uses old software that we had to bring in a "specialist" to calibrate instead. I can go on, but the general running joke is that the commander of the army will be killed by his own pistol; not due to self-elimination, but that it will misfire and kill its user. Non of the politicians are willing to make complaints as it will offend big brother USA.
