The Taiwanese Army held a commissioning ceremony for the 3rd Mixed Battalion of the 584th Armored Brigade, marking its transition to the new M1A2T MBTs.

Taiwan President Lai Ching-te held a ceremony to commission the first battalion of M1A2T Abrams tanks.

In his speech, Lai announced that the 3rd battalion of the 584th Armored Brigade will be the first unit equipped with the main battle tanks M1A2T.

He emphasized that alongside the new equipment, the armed forces must also adopt updated training approaches and modern combat methods for the effective application of asymmetric warfare principles.

In 2019, Taiwan placed an order for 108 M1A2T Abrams tanks — the Taiwanese modification of the American M1A2 Abrams tank.
