("防务新闻周刊发自台北的报导，援引前民进党政府国家安全官员的话说，如果蔡英文当选，她可能会考虑在国防政策上作出一些调整，包括同意台湾自行生产射程超过1000公里的雄风3型(Hsiung Feng 2E Block 3)地对地导弹。报导说，台湾自2010年开始生产射程600公里的雄风2E Block 2导弹，但是雄3导弹的生产计划，在2008年时即在美国的压力下而推迟")

My comment;
(a) I can not find the Defense News report, which sometimes blocks non-subscribers from searching for it in its web site--not just from reading it.

("许多评论认为，这是普京第一次在公开场合遭到嘘声。这起事件非同寻常，类似事件在俄罗斯首次发生。普京过去被不少俄罗斯人当成民族领袖。在任何场合，只要普京登台，每一次都会立刻伴随热烈的掌声和欢呼声，普京被喝倒彩显示一个时代的终结")

(3) China Reinvents The P-3C. Strategy Page, Nov 22, 2011

("China recently revealed the Y-8GX6, its answer to the American P-3C maritime patrol and anti-submarine aircraft. * * * Until the Y-8GX6 can be seen in action, it's difficult to say how close the two aircraft are in capability")

My comment:
(a) Wikipedia does not talk about Y-8GX6 but does a page for Shaanxi Y-8 运-8, which cited Chinese media (Beijing was silent) as source of the June 3, 2006 crash of a Chinese KJ-2000 in Anhui, killing all 40 persons onboard, whose platform was Y-8.
(b) I can not find a Chinese-language news report, but do know of photos of Y-8GX6 appearing in Chinese web sites this month.
