China says it monitored U.S. B-52s that flew through its new air zone

Difficult to monitor

The U.S. bomber flights Monday also highlight the challenges that analysts say China faces in policing its newly claimed air zone.

In its statement Wednesday, the Chinese defense ministry said that "China has the capability to exercise effective control" over the area.

"Beijing might have bitten off a bit more than they can chew because actually going out and monitoring these things on an ongoing basis is probably a bit beyond the capabilities of the Chinese air force right now," said Greg Waldron, Asia managing editor of FlightGlobal, an aviation and aerospace industry website.

"In a sense, it's more a rhetorical statement, as opposed to a realistic military space," Waldron said.

China: Pinas na lang bully uli natin.

hmm, i wonder if those US/UK carriers/batteships are still at Leyte. Baka pwedeng ipadaan muna dun, on a "training mission" para ma "monitor" ng China.

Bakit nga ba naghahanap ng away yung China no? It's almost as if it's a distraction...for what, i don't know.

Or, maybe it's taking a page out of NoKor's playbook: sindak sindak, then ask for concessions.

My thoughts exactly.

Feeling ko they're just taking that carrier for a joyride, scaring its neighbors in the process as well. i hope if doesn't get stuck on a reef, Chinese boats have a tendency to do that.

i know it's risky, but some part of me would like to see 1 or 2 F-15s do a flyby very near that carrier, tignan natin kung papalag.
