The Chinese government has released video footage and photos that can be seen at the top and bottom of this story. Japanese aircraft carrier Izumo A voyage very close to the PLA Navy’s Navy Unique flat top Liaoning Its escort during a recent exercise in the Pacific Ocean. This was after Japanese officials announced plans to set up a military hotline with Chinese responders to reduce the escalation of potential future changes.

Self-Defense Forces Joint Staff Headquarters (JSDF) First announced What it observed Liaoning,along with Type 052D destroyer, Type 054A frigate, And the Type 901 supply ship will be transported from the East China Sea to the western Pacific Ocean southeast of Okinawa on December 15. Chinese fleet After that, he moved further southeast and conducted a series of training including launch and recovery. J-15 fighter from Liaoning, And flight by Z-9 and Z-18 helicopters. The PLA Navy (PLAN) vessel then returned to the East China Sea on December 25.

Japanese authorities I said before That Izumo, With the destroyer Akizuki, Was monitoring China’s activities.Self-Defense Force P-1 When P-3 Anti-submarine patrol aircraft also helped monitor planned exercises, and Japanese fighters were Chinese J-15s. Liaoning..Japanese footage F-15J Eagle Fighter It was also released to intercept the Chinese J-15 shot from the cockpit of the latter aircraft during these recent trainings.

In general, naval vessels in one country, especially foreign warships, cast a shadow over naval vessels in other countries on the high seas. Relatively close It happens in the territorial waters of the country Regularly In the world. So far, there are no signs that Chinese or Japanese troops have acted in dangerous or other non-professional ways during the encounter earlier this month.

At the same time, it is very rare to hire an aircraft carrier in this role and operate it near other Navy vessels.Japan is more like any other country Usually use smaller boats For shadowing missions. The JSDF appears to have explicitly intended, at least in part, to signal Chinese responders about their ability and willingness to hire them in these relatively intimate interactions in the Western Pacific.

It is not clear how close Japanese aircraft carriers are to any PLAN warship, but the distance of such large warships seems to be relatively short. This degree of proximity explains how the Japanese could take close-up shots of these Chinese responders operating in the Pacific, which was included in a previous SDF joint staff press release. Helps to do.
