gangster flew far away and to observer into Chinese ocean ..territory of China, China PLA must be watching to all gangsters from west.
i hate spy, go home and install a hidden cam in your mom's washroom!
OH Dear! Lazy reporting! Try 90 feet! 10 feet is a basketball hoop. And at the 55 sec mark, the 3 planes are China's version of the Thunderbirds demonstration squadron un-armed. Lazy reporting! Don't be CNN.
I don't see nothing. You are being paranoid. Quit wasting our time. 😡👎
a new Vietnam?
A big War coming soon
They will probably break down anyway there made in chyna
Chyna chyna
US should do the same if Chinese military aircrafts show up in Gulf of Mexico
US military plane patrolling in/close to Chinese border but China is the aggressor😂 bet all the women and children who took up arms to fight against US invaders in Vietnam, Afgan… were also the aggressors.
more like 50 feet
Shoot it down…
The Chinese did this under Obama and now under Biden. They didn't dare try it under President Trump. Congratulations democrats, your anger, hate, intolerance, and corruption has put a mentally ill person in charge of our national security. While Russia is talking about using nuclear weapons, China has it's sights on Taiwan. They know they only have two years to do it before the possibility of us getting a real President.
Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.
"The Chinese airplane was in international airspace doing routine patrol when an American airplane came within 10 feet causing the Chinese plane to ascend to avoid contact" – There I wrote it for the American audience on how Chinese views the incident
Must be love
F**k the Chinese government and military, think they can do whatever they want without repercussions.
china wants to get smoked by the us
this is the equivalent of a pedophile standing outside of your house, you go check out whats going on and then YOU end up getting accused of touching kids and being aggressive.
Usa spy plane entry China territory and got too close to Chinese jet. The spy plane made trouble then blaming other. Who u going to believe.
Both pilots deserve medal for avoiding a collision.
Be real! Many countries don't even want to listen to the U.S. which has no longer a superpower; but a nation that has a national debt > GDP.
GO CHINA 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳
Tell U.S to go back to their country.
Firm and fair challenge by the Chinese. US fighters would do that too if a 'hostile' nation conducts drills in international waters that are close to any American territory around the world.
Ten feet? Uh, you better check again, that was about 15 yards.
Weak Biden and America
From Reuters Dec 26th: "Taiwan reports China's largest incursion yet to air defence zone"
WHY —- Cant the USA FLY into this plane and knock it out of the sky ,,, I know it sounds silly can't the USA bear with me ,, Its a some what sensible question strengthen there planes to fly into these CHINESSSE planes and knock them out of the sky's ,,, I don't know fly in front of plane make out you have engine trouble and dump alot of oil out of your plane into there planes engines !!! causing it to crash
Duck China
What was an US aircraft doing routine patrol near China tho
well done! China👍
Free Alaska, Free New Mexico, Free Hawaii, Free Guam and Free American Samoa!
The media sure wants war
China better watch it ……after Russia fail in Ukraine everyone knows their military is a joke they have zero combat experience in half a century all bark zero bite
THEY FLY LIKE THEY DRIVE ?
Every time they do a story about this the planes get closer and closer give them two more reports and it wil be about 3 feet.
Why do you always break into other countries’ border or territory without shame 😂. I heard you steal Syrian oil and grab Afghanistan people’s money! Now your break into China’s territory! What a hooligan you are!
That crazy fool Biden !
Shoot it down.
Ih, the horror! The Chinese have just done what the Americans do on a regular basis… how dare they?
After the US plane descended, it should have released Lazer beam at Chinese jet
More like 30 feet
That's like 100ft not 10.
