In addition to a large number of manned reconnaissance planes, Japan is also deploying various types of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) at the Yokota and Misawa bases, and the reconnaissance missions undertaken by these large UAVs have even surpassed those of many manned aircraft. Judging from the data provided by the ADS-B broadcast automatic surveillance system, the MQ-4C Poseidon Son UAV, which belongs to the US Navy, has repeatedly entered the South China Sea to carry out a series of operations. Although there is only the movement of the MQ-4C Poseidon UAV from the radar signal, the war research believes that the US military's P-8A anti-submarine patrol aircraft is very likely to cooperate behind the scenes, because the MQ-4C Poseidon UAV is a powerful partner of the P-8A anti-submarine patrol aircraft.
At present, U.S. drones are frequently intruding into the South China Sea to carry out various military operations, and judging from the strength of the PLA, the PLA has the ability to respond with drones. The Philippines stressed that PLA drones had flown into the airspace near Subic and were only 26 nautical miles away from Subik. The most important thing in Subic in the Philippines is the Subic Bay Naval Base, according to the relevant information obtained by the War Research Institute, the Subic Bay Naval Base can complete the docking of a number of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers. In fact, the Subic Bay Naval Base and Vietnam's Cam Ranh Bay Naval Base have always been bridgeheads for the confrontation between the Eastern and Western camps, and the United States is also eager to increase military deployments in the Philippines, including the reactivation of the Subic Bay Naval Base, in order to counter China, and now the PLA drones are flying close to Subic for 26 nautical miles, which is a clear warning to the United States.
The Indo-Pacific region does not have a NATO-like defense organization, and the United States is now trying to build an Asia-Pacific version of NATO, which requires the cooperation of Japan, the Philippines and other countries, and the United States has previously launched joint military exercises with the Philippines, Japan and Australia in the South China Sea. In order to support Japan and the Philippines, the United States and the Philippines also delivered a number of medium-range ballistic missile systems to the Philippines in a high-profile manner during the recent Shield 24 military exercise, and this medium-range ballistic missile with a range of 1,600 kilometers has covered a large number of cities south of Shanghai, China, and now the Philippines is willing to act as a vanguard for the United States.
The Wuzhan 7 UAV is also known as the "Chinese version of the Global Hawk", but in terms of aerodynamic layout, the Wuzhan 7 is completely different from the Global Hawk. The flight altitude of the Wuzhan 7 UAV can reach about 30,000 meters, which will also make it impossible for many fighters to fly with the Wuzhan 7 in the process of interception. The Japanese Ministry of Defense's Joint Staff Supervision Department has repeatedly disclosed the approach of the PLA's Wuzhi-7 UAV, but the F-15 fighter has never been able to fly at the same altitude as the Wuzhi-7 UAV.
The dispatch of the Wuzhan 7 UAV and its flight close to Subic 26 nautical miles is believed by the War Research Institute to be a response to the frequent incursions of US drones into the South China Sea, and it is also a response to the collusion between the United States and the Philippines. Of course, at the critical moment when the United States and the Philippines conduct military exercises, especially the use of medium-range missiles, the sudden appearance of the PLA's UAVs can also complete the monitoring of the US and Philippine military exercises, and the United States can complete the deployment of medium-range missiles in the Philippines, but the PLA also has the ability to strike at the source.
