Chinese PLANAF J-11BH conducted dangerous intercept on U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon MPA

quote:

The Pentagon confirmed Friday that a Chinese fighter intercepted a U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon Maritime Patrol Aircraft (MPA). According to images released by the Pentagon, the Chinese Jet appears to be a Shenyang J-11BH likely belonging to the "People's Liberation Army Naval Air Force" (PLANAF) 8th fighter division based in Jialaishi airbase on the Island of Hainan.

According to Pentagon spokesman Rear Admiral John Kirby the interception was �very close, very dangerous, pretty aggressive and very unprofessional.� He said the intercept took place on Tuesday 135 miles (200 km) east of Hainan Island. He said the Chinese fighter jet flew as close as 20 to 30 feet (7 to 10 meters) to the P-8A Poseidon MPA and conducted a barrel roll over the plane.

�The Chinese jet also passed the nose of the P-8 at 90 degrees with its belly towards the P-8 Poseidon, we believe to make a point of showing its weapons load,� he said. It then �flew directly under and alongside the P-8, bringing their wing tips to within 20 feet, and then conducted a roll � over the P-8, passing within 45 feet,� Kirby added.

Based on the pictures, J-11BH was fitted with two PL-8 short range air to air missiles and two PL-12 medium range air to air missiles during these maneuvers.

I doubt the Chinese pilot took a picture of it though .... At least with a Polaroid!

MR_BURNS2,

Your reply is so wrong on so many Levels. To try to relate fake movie BS to life or death situations in the real world is a grave disservice to the highly professional men and women of the United States Military.

Not to mention this incident, in which a German pilot joining an international special response team recklessly endangered three Japanese teammates...

I had to watch that damned cheesy BS movie at least once a week while we were underway. I have a right to make that joke.
