A Lviv-based tech hub signs partnership with Taiwans top UAV maker
A Taiwanese defense company has signed a memorandum of understanding with Ukrainian and Polish delegations on cooperation in UAV technology.
The agreement, announced Wednesday at the International Defense Industry Exhibition (MSPO) in Kielce, Poland, comes amid heightened US-China tensions in the South China Sea.
The document was signed by Taiwan Defense Industry Development Association President Tony Hsu, Polish-Taiwanese Chamber of Commerce founder Bartlomiej Dobosz, and Dmitry Dymyd, a representative of the Lviv Tech Cluster in Ukraine.
According to Focus Taiwan, Ukraine will contribute research and development, Poland will provide expertise, and Taichung-based firm Thunder Tiger will supply technology and components. Earlier this year, Thunder Tiger unveiled an FPV drone capable of carrying an 81mm mortar as well as a new naval kamikaze drone.
The agreement "strengthens technological exchange, develops industrial potential, and enhances our security as partners united by democratic values," Taiwan's office in Poland said on X.
Beijing considers all diplomatic ties with the self-governing island a violation of its sovereignty and has opposed any military aid to Taipei.
While China has avoided criticizing Russia over the war in Ukraine, Taiwan has expressed support for Kiev. Last month, a group of Ukrainian legislators visited the island and met with Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te.
