According to reports, on December 19, two PLA H-6J bombers conducted a combat cruise over the Pacific Ocean. According to information released by the Integrated Staff and Inspection Department of the Ministry of Defense of Japan, the People's Liberation Army's H-6J bombers carried out activities in the airspace 700 kilometers east of the Ryukyu Islands that day.
analysis believes that the PLA’s H-6J bombers went out for combat cruise in the Western Pacific this time to conduct collaborative training with the Liaoning aircraft carrier formation. According to a previous report from the Japanese Ministry of Defense, the Chinese Navy ship Liaoning entered the Western Pacific waters through the Miyako Strait on December 16.
my country's Liaoning aircraft carrier has conducted high-sea training twice a year in the Western Pacific in recent years. The first time this year was in May. At that time, a total of 10 ships were dispatched, which scared the Japanese Self-Defense Force . The "Izumo" quasi-aircraft carrier was also dispatched to track the Liaoning ship.
Although our navy did not dispatch a large number of ships this time, its deterrent effect was not inferior to that of the last time. It is reported that the Liaoning ship's offshore training formation includes the Type 055 guided missile destroyers Anshan and Wuxi, the Type 052D guided missile destroyer Chengdu, the Type 054A guided missile frigate Zaozhuang, and the Type 901 supply ship Hulun Lake.
It is worth mentioning that this is the first time that the Liaoning ship has carried two 0.55 million-ton large-scale propellers for long-sea training. Among them, the Anshan ship was officially announced to have passed the full training assessment and formed combat effectiveness in November this year, and the Wuxi ship joined the Liaoning ship's offshore training formation only nine months after its service.
In addition, according to a previous report from the Japanese Ministry of Defense, on December 14, another 055 large-scale destroyer Lhasa of the Chinese Navy has passed through the Osumi Strait and entered the Western Pacific. The ship was also operating together with the 052D Kaifeng ship and the Type 903A supply ship Taihu ship .
Nowadays, the People's Liberation Army's H-6J bombers are also conducting combat patrols in the Pacific airspace, most likely to cooperate with the Liaoning fleet's long-sea training. Faced with the intensive activities of the People's Liberation Army's naval and air forces in the Pacific, the United States is obviously becoming anxious.
Aviation control information shows that on December 20, two US Air Force B-52H strategic bombers conducted a deterrent cruise operation in the East China Sea. Since December, the U.S. military's provocative actions around China have significantly reduced. Now, the U.S. military's nuclear bombing into the East China Sea is obviously to confront the People's Liberation Army.
Moreover, the U.S. Air Force not only dispatched B-52H strategic bombers, but also dispatched F-22 stealth fighters for escort. In addition, South Korea also joined in the fun. According to reports, the South Korean Air Force dispatched F-35A stealth fighters and F-15K fighter jets to interact with U.S. B-52H strategic bombers.
Since the beginning of this year, the relationship between South Korea and the United States has become closer and closer, so it is expected that the South Korean Air Force will send fighter jets to interact with the US military's nuclear bombardments. In addition, although the air traffic control information is not displayed, according to usual practice, the Japan Air Self-Defense Force should have also dispatched fighter jets to interact with the US military bombers.
In addition to dispatching strategic bombers to confront the People's Liberation Army, the US military's aircraft carrier battle group has also reached China's periphery. According to the Japanese Ministry of Defense, on December 19, the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force dispatched P-1 anti-submarine patrol aircraft to participate in a joint military exercise held by the US Navy aircraft carrier battle group and the US Air Force.
reported that the military exercise was held in the sea and airspace near Iwo Jima, which means that the US aircraft carrier battle group has reached the "first island chain". It is reported that the US military aircraft carrier currently operating in the Asia-Pacific region is the USS Nimitz nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. The aircraft carrier set off from the United States at the beginning of this month to take over the deployment of the "Reagan" aircraft carrier in the Asia-Pacific region.
On December 16, the aircraft carrier "Reagan" has completed its deployment for this year and returned to its home port of Yokosuka. Now the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz is about to arrive in the Asia-Pacific region, which means that a new round of aircraft carrier deterrence operations by the US military in the Asia-Pacific region is about to begin.
The People’s Liberation Army’s Liaoning aircraft carrier fleet is currently conducting high-sea training in the Western Pacific. After the U.S. aircraft carrier enters the “first island chain”, it will definitely enter the Western Pacific waters, which means that Chinese and American aircraft carriers are likely to appear in the same waters at the same time.
You must know that the reason why US military aircraft carriers are continuously deployed in the Asia-Pacific region is not only to maintain the deterrence of the United States in the Asia-Pacific region, but also has another purpose, which is to deter China. However, as China's military strength continues to improve, all the US's deterrent measures against China have no effect at all.
Therefore, if the US aircraft carrier dares to provoke China after entering the Western Pacific, the People's Liberation Army will certainly not sit idly by. The US military is advised to take care of itself to avoid asking for trouble.
