Today, an American F16 crashed into the Yellow Sea, and I want to talk about this and extension.
According to the news released by Yonhap News Agency on the 11th of this month, a US military F16 fighter jet stationed in South Korea that was participating in military exercises accidentally crashed in the waters of the Yellow Sea.If the headline of the news had been about falling into South Korean waters, it would not have attracted so much attention.
Someone asked, did we fight it?
That's actually a lot of thinking.
Although China and South Korea have some arguments over the demarcation of the Yellow Sea, it is not a big problem, and US planes will not fly to our side casually, and they may be in the Yellow Sea area, but they will not violate their airspace.
*From Zhihu) The plane took off from Gunsan Air Base, 178 kilometers south of Seoul, and crashed into the water, the details are unknown, draw a picture, basically still in the coastal area of South Korea, far away from us.
But this is not uncommon, the Osprey stationed in Japan often falls, and the F16 fell the second in South Korea this year.
On the morning of May 6, local time, an F-16 fighter jet of the 8th Combat Flight Regiment of the US Army stationed in South Korea crashed into farmland near Osan Air Base in Pyeongtaek City, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, and caused a fire.At present, it is still a mechanical failure or an emergency such as a bird, and it is not a special situation.
I would like to say a few points:
Clause.
First, there is a tacit understanding between countries.
In addition to the unconventional play of cards in the Korean naval war, the military actions of China and the United States and China and South Korea will be cautious, and they basically belong to the kind of approval at all levels, and the United States and South Korea are the same, making decisions very carefully.
The main thing is not that they are afraid of us, but that they are afraid that the DPRK will not calm down.
Therefore, there is no need for F16 to peek at our Xi, and we don't need it to watch, even if we come, we will not fight down, and we will still communicate in the dark line.
Clause.
Second, it is normal to drop the plane, but it is not normal to drop it several times a year.
The failure rate of fighter aircraft is very high, the requirements for logistical support are very high, and there are accidents when our carrier-based aircraft are training.
The overall volume of the United States is very large, so it is not uncommon to drop planes, the training intensity is high, and the maintenance cannot keep up, it will fall, an average of one plane a month, but it is certainly not as much as India.
It's just that according to the frequency of such drops in Japan, South Korea, and the U.S. military, many problems can be seen from the side.
The F16 is a very good three-and-a-half-generation, but the service time is generally more than 20 years, and some even more than 40 years, and it has reached the end of the replacement, but the new fighter has not been able to keep up.
American pilots are the best pilots, in the past Chinese pilots flew 100 hours were very strong, the United States averaged 200 per year is normal, but now all kinds of **, XD, LGBT in the military are rampant, politically correct, and combat effectiveness is far inferior to before.
From this small point, it can be seen that our air force is catching up with each other, and we must not be arrogant.
Clause.
Third, all sides are stepping up military preparations.
In the past two years, East Asia's armaments have been at a high frequency and high intensity, and this trend is increasing day by day.
Of course, we hope for peace, but there are actually a lot of frictions of all kinds, and the common people know little about it.
If you can't do it, a soldier can come and beat you if he gets lost, and if you have the strength, the nuclear submarine will not say a word if it is destroyed.
South Korea doesn't have much to do, it's still afraid of North Korea, it's an empty shelf, and it's Japan that is really dangerous.
What we have been doing all this time is not two wars, but preparations for at least three or four wars to start at the same time.
It's better not to have it, but there is, and not afraid.
Recently in the South China Sea, it has been very intense, and there is no intimidation.
Defending the territory, that's not a trick, the sky and the sea and the land in the sea must have real strength, and there must be real determination, otherwise like the Beiyang Naval Division, no matter how advanced it is, it is useless.
At this point, I am still very proud of the motherland, at least the common people don't need to know so much, and they don't need to know so much.
As soon as we saw the Shandong ship suddenly passing through the Taiwan Strait, we are practicing our real skills day by day, and only when we have practiced our real skills, others will not dare to provoke casually.
In fact, what the reality is, on the day of retirement from the bureau, people who know a little bit should be able to guess it.
Everyone does their own thing, does not cause trouble, is not afraid of trouble, supports the country's decisions, is ready for that day to come, and has a plan in mind.
