On the 24th, a big event happened to the "Carl Vinson" aircraft carrier that was causing trouble in the South China Sea . When an F-35C fighter tried to land on the aircraft carrier An accident suddenly occurred. The pilot parachuted to escape and seven staff on the aircraft carrier were injured. How was the damage to the fighter plane? Did it crash into the sea? The U.S. military did not respond at the time; then on the 25th, the U.S. Navy admitted that the accident occurred yesterday. The fighter plane hit the deck and then crashed into the seabed. It is now planning to salvage the wreckage of the F-35C fighter jet. It is reported that this fighter jet It is a carrier-based aircraft specially built for aircraft carriers. It is worth nearly 100 million US dollars. It is a very advanced fifth-generation aircraft .
Regarding the salvage plan for this fighter jet, a spokesman for the U.S. Navy’s Seventh Fleet said, “The U.S. Navy is formulating an action plan for salvaging the F-35C fighter jet that crashed in the South China Sea because we currently do not know what China wants to do here.” . It seems that the United States is still sticking to its old proverbs - it talks about the "China threat" and doesn't know how to speak without mentioning China. In response to this spokesperson's statement, many Western media forced themselves to add drama and imagined all the scenes. Among them, the British media imagined the most intensely. Because of the existence of BBC, the media here may be better at it. Brainstorm.
A media called "The Independent" believes that the United States is now very worried about China salvaging the F-35C fighter jet that crashed into the sea to obtain its advanced radar equipment and stealth technology, because not long ago the United Kingdom obtained Mediterranean The admiral salvaged the wreckage of his own F-35B fighter . When the fighter plane crashed on the "Queen Elizabeth" aircraft carrier, Russia was "very interested" in the wreckage of the fighter plane, and the British were responsible for the salvage at the time. There was not enough manpower. In order to salvage the wreckage of the fighter jet as soon as possible to prevent it from being taken away by Russia, the United Kingdom urgently asked the United States to help salvage it. When the wreckage of the fighter jet was salvaged, the United Kingdom went through repeated inspections before confirming There is no risk of damage or leakage to the key equipment on this fighter plane; however, given that the United States has previous experience in helping the United Kingdom salvage F-35B, it can draw some lessons from this salvage of F-35C. When the wreckage is salvaged, it will be passed on the aircraft The recorder can determine the specific cause of the crash.
The British " Daily Mail " declared that "if the United States wants to prevent the wreckage of the F-35C fighter jet from falling into the hands of China, it will face a very complicated problem" because the F-35C fighter jet that crashed in the Mediterranean Sea previously The 35B fighter jets took nearly a month to salvage thanks to the efforts of the United States, Britain, and Italy. Now it will take even longer to reach the South China Sea area, because the South China Sea area is not only very close to China, but also sent out Some large search and rescue salvage ships or exploration ships will be opposed by China. Moreover, the hydrological conditions in this area are very complex, and the seabed conditions are complex and changeable. Even American nuclear submarines have overturned here.
What these media mean in summary is that the United States is competing with my country to fish it out, and it must fish it out before my country can fish it up. Otherwise, after my country fishes up the wreckage of the fighter plane, it is very likely to crack the key technologies and equipment on it.However, this is obviously overthinking. For a fighter aircraft whose performance is not as good as that of our country's J-20, why do we have to spend so much effort to fish it out? If the F-22, a fighter jet that the United States only uses for its own use, falls, maybe our country will catch it. Our country has long been aware of the performance of the F-35, a fighter jet that is popular around the world; What's more, this is still a faulty machine. After it is fished out, our country will obtain its technology. If something happens again, won't we be looking for trouble for ourselves?
So I say that the United States really does not need to worry so much. For such a faulty machine, the United States just wants us to salvage it, but we are not willing to salvage it. Unless you give us a salvage fee, we will dispatch our own salvage ship Come here to help you salvage the wreckage of the fighter plane. What else do you need after you have the J-20? Isn’t this picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelon? Even if this is a carrier-based aircraft version, our country also has a carrier-based aircraft version of the FC-31. Although the performance is not known, it at least has safety guarantees, unlike the F-35, which crashes from time to time. A hot search, although the British F-35 that crashed into the sea was fished out, the Japanese F-35 that crashed into the sea in 2019 was not fished out.
As for the reports of these media, they are completely forcing themselves to add drama. After all, anti-China has become a "wealth code" in the West. Western media that have mastered the "wealth code" will naturally cover everything that can be related to China. By referring to China and adding various conspiracy theories, we can attract more people's attention.
