Taiwan immobilized the entire fleet while security checks were carried out after a strange event.

Taiwan immobilized the entire F16 fighter fleet while security checks were carried out after a plane went missing during an exercise, officials said today.

This decision deprives the territory of 150 F16s and thus limits the air defense capability, as Chinese military aircraft have flown near Taiwan with unprecedented frequency in recent months.

The Air Force said a single-seat F16 with a 44-year-old pilot at the controls disappeared from radar on Tuesday night, two minutes after taking off from an airbase east of the island. It then flew about 1,800 meters above sea level.
