Taiwan's defense department announced on the 25th that the People's Liberation Army (PLA) launched a large-scale military exercise around Taiwan on the same day, with a total of 32 sorties of various types of fighters and 9 ** operating near Taiwan in one day. The fighters dispatched by the PLA include Su-30, J-10, J-7, Y-8 anti-submarine aircraft, Air Police-500 early warning aircraft, Y-9 communication countermeasure aircraft, as well as TB-001, BZK-005, and Rainbow 4 unmanned aerial vehicles. Among them, at least 20 fighters approached Taiwan from the southwest, southeast, and northeast, forming a complete encirclement with 9 ** ships at sea, encircling Taiwan.
This is the PLA's closest naval and air force blockade of Taiwan so far, and it is also the largest number of types of fighters used against Taiwan. The significance of this military exercise is extraordinary, it shows how the PLA can deal with Taiwan in actual combat, and also tempers the PLA's combat capability.
This move by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) has made many people wonder what the Taiwan authorities have done to provoke the PLA
In fact, the reason is not complicated, just a few days ago, the United States once again approved an arms sale to Taiwan, amounting to $500 million, selling an "infrared search and tracking system" that can be installed on F-16 fighters. It is said that this kind of system can detect the best fighters, and the United States obviously has an ulterior motive in sending this kind of system to Taiwan. Therefore, the People's Liberation Army's encirclement of Taiwan this time is likely to be aimed at countering US-Taiwan arms sales.
Of course, some people will wonder why the PLA is making such a big deal about it for the sake of a $500 million arms sale
As a matter of fact, since Lai Qingde went to the United States, the PLA's countermeasures against Taiwan have undergone fundamental changes, and in the words of the Eastern Theater, the PLA has now shown a "trend of all-out encirclement and aggression on the island" against Taiwan. That is to say, in the means of countering the United States and Taiwan in the future, the encirclement of Taiwan is only a basic operation, and the Xi of locking up Taiwan, which seemed amazing before, has become the norm, and the next step is to narrow the encirclement until the landing operation.
The People's Liberation Army (PLA) besieged Taiwan overnight, and this was only the first thing on the day of the 25th, and the second thing had to do with Japan.
At the same time that the People's Liberation Army (PLA) flew 32 sorties to encircle Taiwan, the Japanese Ministry of Defense discovered two PLA H-6 bombers at its own door. Because Japan's nuclear sewage discharge into the sea has made Japan feel weak, Japan is worried that the People's Liberation Army (PLA) is going to bomb the sewage facilities in Fukushima, so the Japanese Self-Defense Forces hurriedly dispatched F-15 fighters to "monitor" the PLA.
Is the PLA really going to do something about the Fukushima sewage facility?It's really an option, and we have every reason to do it, but not now, we're going to take it one step at a time, and we're not in a hurry.
China's Ministry of National Defense said that the flight activities of the Chinese aircraft in the airspace of the Miyako Strait are legal and legitimate, and that it will continue to organize similar training in the open sea in the future Xi.
Xi is good, this sentence has prepared for the PLA to legally and reasonably counter Japan in the future, I believe that the countermeasures against Japan's nuclear sewage discharge into the sea are gradually unfolding, everyone can wait patiently.
