Introduction: The Philippines has recently adopted a new strategy of using small transport planes to fly non-stop from the mainland to Second Thomas Shoal and drop supplies in the air. The move has created a new dilemma for the China Coast Guard and raised questions about how to respond. This article will introduce the new tactics of the Philippines and the challenges faced by the Chinese Coast Guard, and analyze possible countermeasures.
The Philippines chose to use small twin-engine transport planes to load supplies from mainland China and fly directly over Second Thomas Shoal for airdrops. The advantage of this tactic is that it avoids a direct confrontation with the Chinese coast guard, and the low-altitude drop of aircraft reduces the likelihood of damage to supplies. The Philippine side said that these supplies are urgently needed for the crew's life.
The Philippines has given full consideration to the factor of not coming into direct conflict with the China Coast Guard when selecting the airdrop supplies for the aircraft, and has made good arrangements for the planning and flight path of the aircraft. This tactic not only demonstrated the wisdom and flexibility of the Philippine side, but also provided a new attempt for the two sides to resolve their differences. The airdropped supplies are small in size and weight, which ensures that the supplies land safely during the aircraft drop at low altitudes and can be picked up quickly by the crew. The Filipino side has given full consideration to the classification and quantity of supplies to meet the living needs of the crew. The adoption of this new tactic not only increases the initiative of the Philippine side on the Second Thomas Shoal issue, but also provides new ideas for future solutions.
The Chinese Coast Guard has been relatively well defended in the waters of Ren'ai Jiao, not only stationing a number of Chinese armed fishing boats inside the reef, but also stationing Chinese coast guard vessels and armed fishing boats at the main entrance to the reef. However, the appearance of Philippine planes dropping supplies has caused problems with the Chinese coast guard's defenses near Second Thomas Shoal. In response to this new challenge, the China Coast Guard is faced with the choice of how to intercept, strike or not strike.
The equipment of the Chinese coast guard ships is mainly designed to counter opposing ships, and most are equipped with small-caliber machine guns or cannons, and a few are equipped with 76mm naval guns. However, the small number of Chinese coast guard ships makes it more difficult to deal with Philippine aircraft airdropping supplies. As a member of the international community, China cannot use its air defense and anti-aircraft to deal with small civilian aircraft, which is not in line with international practice and is easy to create a pretext for the "China threat theory". As a result, the CCG faces the question of how to effectively respond to the Philippines' new tactics without escalating the situation. China needs to consider various factors comprehensively to formulate the most appropriate strategy and countermeasures.
The China Coast Guard needs to conduct a thorough study and analysis of the Philippines' airdrop tactics and develop a response strategy. It is important that the CCG does not act rashly, but rather takes a well-thought-out response.
The China Coast Guard can use aerial reconnaissance and surveillance technology to keep an eye on Philippine aircraft movements and movements, as well as supplies they are dropping. On the basis of a full understanding of the situation, appropriate measures can be taken to intervene, such as dialogue with the Philippines through diplomatic channels, to resolve conflicts through negotiation and avoid escalation of the conflict. In addition, increase patrols and alert forces near Second Thomas Shoal to prevent other provocative actions by the Philippine side, while strengthening the deployment of carrier-based aircraft to improve the surveillance and interception capabilities of Philippine aircraft. Through these measures, the China Coast Guard can stabilize the situation and avoid surprises on the basis of ensuring national interests.
The Philippines' new tactics pose new challenges for the Chinese coast guard, as it faces the question of how to respond to airdrops of supplies. The China Coast Guard needs to consider various factors and formulate a response strategy after thorough research and analysis. This requires the China Coast Guard to comprehensively monitor the movements and movements of Philippine aircraft through aerial reconnaissance and surveillance technology, and develop appropriate measures to intervene, while strengthening patrols and vigilance forces to improve surveillance and interception capabilities of Philippine aircraft. Through these measures, the China Coast Guard can stabilize the situation while protecting national interests and avoiding accidents. At the same time, the China Coast Guard should also strengthen diplomatic communication with the Philippines and seek ways to resolve differences through consultation to maintain regional peace and stability. Finally, China should pay close attention to the actions of the Philippines and the international community's response to this incident, and make timely and flexible adjustments to ensure that its own interests and image are safeguarded.
