Taiwan has conducted a secret (and successful) test of the Mica air-to-air missile. Taiwan bought 960 of the missiles from France. It has only test fired one before now; that being in May 98. The test in March 2000 involved a missile fired from a Mirage-2000-5 fighter toward a remotely-controlled drone.--Stephen V Cole
