Taiwan air force band boosts morale with music from the front line

Founded in 2018, the Taiwanese air force “Tiger Band” is made up of fighter pilots, ground crew and other personnel based at the island’s Chihhang air base. Their latest song "Fly into the Sky" published in May 2022 has gained thousands of supportive comments online and has been praised as a morale boost for Taiwan. Mainland China, which sees Taiwan as a breakaway territory awaiting reunification, has recently stepped up military exercises in the area.
