U.S. Reconnaissance Aircraft Flew Closer to Guangdong and Fujian for Less than 93 km
Taiwan Media: Clearly Challenging China’s Tolerance Limit
The South China Sea Strategic Situation Probing Initiative (SCSPI), an official Chinese research organization, had frequently released military activities of the United States in the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait. The SCSPI tweeted on Twitter that a U.S. military EP-3E reconnaissance aircraft operated in the closest distance, 50.19 nautical miles (about 92.95 kilometers), away from the provinces of Guangdong and Fujian. ETtoday, a media of Taiwan, stated that it was a challenge to the tolerance limits of China clearly after further stepping by the U.S. military for 109.67 kilometers recently.
The SCSPI also tweeted that the U.S. Navy EP-3E reconnaissance aircraft operated actively near the Taiwan Strait, taking on quite a winding path on Aug 15. Besides, a U.S. Air Force E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (Joint STARS) reconnaissance aircraft had approached Guangdong Province many times recently since July.
