This time, the Philippines did not take advantage of the situation, and obviously will not give up, and I think that the next step is to jointly conduct a joint cruise with the United States, and according to the frequency of their joint patrols in the past few months, it has reached about once a month.

As of the evening of May 17, the Philippine provocation at Scarborough Shoal came to an end, and Philippine ships took the initiative to withdraw, and the confrontation at Scarborough Shoal, which lasted for several days, can be said to have come to an end.
Picture interpretation: When the Philippines assembled fishing boats, it was not 2 days before it could hold on
Picture interpretation: The 056 ship is a super warship in the eyes of the Philippines, with strong anti-ship firepower and terminal anti-missile capabilities
I think there are two places to pay attention to: first, why did the Philippines take the initiative to evacuate, because the difference in strength is too great, the Philippines claims to have about 100 boats, but they are all small wooden boats that can only seat a few people, this kind of boat in a small bay or river is almost the same, the Philippine government let these boats wash these boats to the South China Sea more than 200 kilometers away from the coast, and a slightly larger wave may overturn.
Picture interpretation: The Philippines let these small sampans row to Scarborough Shoal Island, which is more than 200 kilometers away, and it is indeed quite ruthless, and the sea wolf will turn over when it is bigger
Picture interpretation: This kind of small sampan in the Philippines can only be drawn in small bays and rivers
The coast guard ships on our side are all several thousand tons, and there is also the scene of the 056 frigate, and these small wooden ships in the Philippines obviously have no possibility of further provocation. Due to the small size of the Philippine ship, which drove more than 200 kilometers from the coast to Scarborough Shoal, the fuel was obviously insufficient, so the Philippine government distributed fuel around Scarborough Shoal.
Our coast guard ships are several thousand tons, their own support capacity can reach more than a month, and there is sufficient food, fresh water and oil, so under this extremely disparity in strength, it can be said that the trouble in the Philippines has ended before it has even begun.
Picture interpretation: 056 shows terminal interception capability
The second concern is what the Philippines will do next, which is crucial. I think the next step is likely to be a joint cruise with the United States, according to the frequency of their joint patrols in the past few months, it has reached about once a month, so I think this Scarborough Shoal Philippines trouble, is to pave the way for the next joint cruise with the United States, I will continue to follow this matter, interested friends can pay attention.

Photo interpretation: Japanese coast guard vessels may once again participate in Philippine sea cruises
Although the tonnage of 056 is small, and the firepower cannot be compared with 054A and 052D, but in the eyes of the Philippines, it is a super battleship. Because the Philippine Navy's strongest frigate, the Jose Riza-class, is about the same as the 056, the 056 and other coast guard ships can completely crush the Philippines in terms of strength and posture.
