Tensions between the United States and China have reached unprecedented levels, particularly in the South China Sea. US Navy patrols navigating these contested waters often find themselves in close encounters with Chinese military aircraft—encounters that are far from routine. These high-stakes intercepts carry significant risks, not just for the pilots involved, but for regional stability and global peace. So, what really happens when a Chinese fighter jet intercepts a US Navy patrol? Could these encounters trigger a full-blown conflict? • Let's jump straight into the action. The skies over the South China Sea have witnessed a growing number of close encounters between US and Chinese military aircraft, each one a potential flashpoint in this tense region. • One particularly alarming incident occurred in February 2023. A Chinese J-11 fighter jet closed to within 20 feet of a US Air Force RC-135 reconnaissance aircraft. The US plane was forced to fly through the wake turbulence of the Chinese jet, a maneuver that US officials described as unnecessarily aggressive and extremely dangerous. • And this wasn’t an isolated case. Just two months earlier, in December 2022, another J-11 fighter flew within 20 feet of a US RC-135’s nose, forcing it to take evasive maneuvers. The close proximity of these encounters shows just how easily a miscalculation could lead to disaster. • #usnavy #chinesenavy #fighterjet • ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Become a member and proudly bear the title of 'Navy Life Supporter'! • As a 'Navy Life Supporter', you show your appreciation and respect for all Navy Sailors.
