Taoyuan Pilots (Chinese: 桃園領航猿) is a professional basketball team based in Taoyuan, Taiwan. They have been part of P. League+ since the 2020–21 season.

In 2020, following the establishment of P. League+, Super Basketball League team Taoyuan Pauian Archiland splitted the team in two, which one of both joined P. League+ and rebranded to Taoyuan AirApe.[1] The AirApe became one of the four teams of the inaugural P. League+ season.

On November 1, 2020, the AirApe was renamed to Taoyuan Pilots.[2]
