On January 23, from a location about 150 kilometers from the coast of Guangdong Province to a sea area of 300 to 500 kilometers southwest of Kaohsiung City, US military fighters and multiple aircraft My People’s Air Force fighters were confronted. The cause of the incident was that on January 20th, the USS Roosevelt moved from the Philippine Sea to the South China Sea. The aircraft carrier formation dispatched 1 E-2C and 1 C-2A transport aircraft , and the US military in Japan dispatched 4 P-s. The 8A anti-submarine aircraft and one EP-3E electronic reconnaissance aircraft have implemented deterrence and reconnaissance on China’s southeast coast.
Picture interpretation: The picture shows the trajectory of US military fighters south of Kaohsiung, deep into the Dongsha Islands. The US military aircraft includes 4 P-8A anti-submarine aircraft and one E-2C from the USS Roosevelt. AWACS
Picture interpretation: Taiwan’s defense department announced the deployment of Chinese People’s Air Force fighters on January 23, 6K reached 8 sorties, this is obviously a planned anti-aircraft exercise_ p8p
Picture Interpretation: The 6K bomber cruised to the island of Taiwan
Just when the 7 US fighters entered the South China Sea,Our People's Air Force launched 8 sorties and blasted 6K into the air, creating a number of single-day strategic bombers' attendance against US aircraft carriers. According to the data of Taiwan’s defense department, our People’s Air Force has dispatched 8 sorties with 6K, 1 Y-8 ASW anti-submarine aircraft, and 4 sorties of F-16 fighters.
It can be seen from this lineup that 8 sorties H6K is a long-range anti-ship platform, 4 sorties J-16 fighters can perform air-to-surface strike missions, H-6K and J-16 are both long-range strike forces, and the imaginary target is likely to be the Roosevelt. Aircraft carrier formation. 8 sorties bombing 6K theoretically can launch 48 long-range anti-ship missiles , capable of carrying out saturation strikes on the USS Roosevelt aircraft carrier battle group. From the flight trajectory, it conforms to the strike method launched by the anti-ship missile . After launching the anti-ship missile, it quickly withdraws. The autonomous engine of the anti-ship missile will switch to the active guidance mode at the end of the ballistic.

There may be two Japanese destroyers in the USS Roosevelt formation, which are the King Kong-class DDG 173. The destroyer and the Asahi-class destroyer DD119. Both ships are anti-aircraft destroyers. It seems that the US-Japan formation is well prepared this time. In the next few days, the USS Roosevelt aircraft carrier formation may enter the South China Sea. It should be noted that the US military still has the USS Reagan aircraft carrier in Japan and the USS CVN 70 Carl Vinson that has just departed from the North Island Naval Air Station. The aircraft carrier will enter the Pacific Ocean for deployment in the next few days, and may also enter the Western Pacific.
