The Republic of China Armed Forces (ROCAF; pinyin: Zhōnghuá Mínguó Guójūn) are the armed forces of the Republic of China (ROC), formerly based in mainland China and currently in its remaining jurisdictions which includes the islands of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen, Matsu, and other smaller ROC islands such as Taiping Island in the South China Sea.
It encompasses the Army, Navy (including the Marine Corps), Air Force and Military Police Force. The military is under the civilian control of the Ministry of National Defense, a cabinet-level agency overseen by the Legislative Yuan. It was previously named the National Revolutionary Army (NRA) before being renamed as the Republic of China Armed Forces in 1947 due to the implementation of the newly promulgated Constitution of the Republic of China. It was also historically referred as the Chinese National Armed Forces from 1912 to 1949 prior to the establishment of the People's Republic of China on the Chinese mainland.
Until the 1970s and towards the end of martial law, the military's primary mission was for the ROC to eventually retake mainland China from the communist-controlled People's Republic of China (PRC) through campaigns such as Project National Glory. The military's current foremost mission is the defense of the islands remaining under the control of the ROC, against a possible military invasion by the People's Liberation Army of the PRC, which is seen as the predominant threat to the ROC in the ongoing dispute over the ambiguous political status of Taiwan dating back to the Chinese Civil War.
Comment:
"Many people speak against Taiwan for the reason that Taiwan still upholding the clauses in her own Constitution, which clearly state the ultimate goal of reunification and Taiwan as a part of China. As a law student in Taiwan, I must admit that this is a true and powerful counter-argument of every effort we have done so far to escape our dictatorial past and potential dictatorial future. However, it is misleading and unfair to people who live in Taiwan. Since the Constitution was either passed before we have democracy, or in the transition phrase. And most importantly, at this moment, we continually to be threatened by the use of force from China if we ever dare to amend the Constitution! The truth is that China knows this fact as well, that's why China is doing everything to stop Taiwan from cutting this final legal tie from China. In this sense, I would say the removal of China's coercion should be a consensus of all arguments. Then we can see if Taiwan wish to uphold those clauses, or they regard it as nonsense."

The defence ministry said the aircraft, including nuclear-capable bombers, entered its air defence identification zone (ADIZ) in two waves. Taiwan responded by scrambling its jets and deploying missile systems. China sees democratic Taiwan as a breakaway province, but Taiwan sees itself as a sovereign state. Taiwan has been complaining for more than a year about repeated missions by China's air force near the island.

ROC military: As of March 2022, Taiwanese men are conscripted for four months of service. Taiwan's military has just doubled the length of call-back training, but some critics say the country is still sorely underprepared for battle.
