"Even the devils in the county are dispatched", and the US aircraft carrier is coming again. After the USS Reagan nuclear aircraft carrier strike group ended its visit to Singapore, it did not leave, but instead entered South China Sea again. It acts as a mission to show the existence of aircraft carriers in "competitive waters".
The US military is obviously preparing in advance and treating this operation as a very important operation. One of them is to "escort" the Speaker of the US House of Representatives Pelosi , who is about to visit Asia. This time the aircraft carrier strike group consists of the USS Reagan nuclear aircraft carrier, the USS Higgins missile destroyer, the USS Antitan missile cruiser and the USS Tipicano supply ship.
Pelosi just announced the itinerary for her trip to Asia Pacific in August. The first stop is Japan, the second stop is Indonesia , the third stop is Singapore, and then he returned to the United States. There was no mention of Taiwan in the itinerary!
Although there is no mention of Taiwan, it is not ruled out that the old witch flies and then "a round of plane joysticks" will suddenly visit Taiwan. The United States is currently playing the "edge ball" and has repeatedly used the "sausage-cutting" tactic to stimulate the Wanwan to come to China.
The United States wants to detect the bottom line of mainland China through visits from politicians of all sizes and large and small, as well as a series of provocations such as arms sales, and constantly stepping around the Chinese red line. This is the United States' consistent action in recent years.
Since the Taiwan issue is our fundamental interest, it concerns the foundation of the country and is too important to the mainland, the United States is on the strategic initiative and has countless methods to use the Bay Area issue to grasp China and gradually step on the red line of China. The purpose of the United States is to make us accustomed to being stepped on by the red line. The US military's provocation, protests and shouting "Don't say it's not advisable" are not available at all. Even holding military exercises is useless, and the United States will not stop at all. Unless China directly overturns the table and slaps it with a big ear, I won’t play with you anymore.
Americans believe in doing things "starting from the status of strength". When stepping on the red line of China, of course there will be force behind the scenes.
This time, the cruising range of the US Navy's "Reagan" nuclear aircraft carrier is likely to be from the South China Sea to the Philippine Sea . This area is also an important front position for the PLA Navy and Air Force long-range bombers. With the range of the H-6K bomber , if the cruise missile is launched in the Philippine Sea after taking off, it will just be able to strike Guam . The US sea and air force use the Philippine sea as an important position for attacks from sea to land.
In the future war, the Philippine sea will become a sea area where China and the United States have fiercely fought for sea and air forces. When the USS Reagan nuclear aircraft carrier is running in the South China Sea-Philippines this time, it is likely that our aircraft carrier "Shandong" ship, which has just finished repairs and has already moved south and carried out patrol missions.
Last year, three U.S. senators took a US C-17 military transport plane to visit Taiwan. The U.S. military "something" deployed an aircraft carrier battle group not far from east Tai, and the frequent mobilization of the Navy and Air Force in Japan. Although Americans do not admit it, they are actually quite nervous.
In order to ensure safety, the US military even mobilized a large amount of military forces in the Western Pacific region. The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command dispatched special aircraft such as E-8Ch, MQ-4C, RC-130, P-8A to intensively fly around the bay, trying to ensure escort. The Navy's Reagan (CVN 76) nuclear aircraft carrier battle group patrolled the coast of eastern Taiwan and did not leave until a few days after the visit.
At that time, Taiwan media claimed that the deployment of the US military was not only to ensure the safety of the three U.S. senators, but also to the mainland, it also released the so-called "strategic letter" of "don't act rashly."
Therefore, in order to support the possible sea-to-air confrontation in August, the Reagan nuclear aircraft carrier will continue to cruise and deterrent in the South China Sea and around China.
The South China Sea actually had a sad place for the US military. Last year, a Seawolf-class nuclear submarine crashed in the South China Sea, and then an F-35A carrier-based aircraft fell into the sea. A US Navy F-35A fighter hit the deck of the "Carl Vinson" aircraft carrier. What caused the US military to have one after another in the South China Sea? Are these coincidences?
They know nothing about power!
