"Reagan" aircraft carrier urgently enter the South China Sea and want to do?

The American "Reagan" aircraft carrier strike group entered the South China Sea again! Based on the strategic situation of the South China Sea and the information released by the U.S. Navy, the US Navy's "Reagan" aircraft carrier strike group completed its visit to Singapore and entered the South China Sea urgently. In addition, an U.S. RC-135V reconnaissance aircraft entered the South China Sea on the 27th. Chinese military experts said that from the current situation of the "Reagan" aircraft carrier, it is likely to prepare for Pelosi's possible visit to Taiwan, while RC-135V may be the B-2 bomber Patrol road. If the U.S. military puts these actions into implementation, it will greatly increase regional instability factors.

"Reagan" is urgent north to go north

News from the South China Sea's strategic situation shows that on the evening of July 26, after visiting the port of Singapore, the US Navy's "Reagan" aircraft carrier's strike group entered the South China Sea again. Missile cruiser, "Higgins" missile destroyer and "Tizano" supply ship. According to the information updated on July 28th, the South China Sea strategic situation showed that as of 9 o'clock on the 28th, the "Tipkano" supply ship had sailed to the east of Vietnam. Some analysts believe that this means that the "Reagan" aircraft carrier strike group is sailing north to high -speed.

According to the previous media reports, the "Reagan" aircraft carrier left Japan's Sasieba Port on May 8th and started preparations before the 2022 battle deployment. Later, the "Reagan" aircraft carrier strike group participated in the "Brave Shield" exercise held in the Philippines Sea in June. It entered the South China Sea through the Philippine Sea through the Philippines Sea in mid -July and conducted drills in the South China Sea. The ship arrived in Singapore on the 22nd to visit and left Singapore on the 26th.

According to Chinese military experts, the original "Reagan" aircraft carrier's schedule plan to visit Vietnam, but in the end the US Navy canceled the visit and directly visited Singapore. One may be that the U.S. Navy is engaged in the "freedom of navigation" in the South China Sea, and it is clearly stated that it is a nation -country country for Nansha, including Vietnam, which has led to tight relations between the two countries and the visits plan. The second may be the compressed itinerary of the US aircraft carrier. After the rest of the Singapore, the new task is immediately implemented. This new task is not ruled out that Perlis may visit Taiwan for "escorting". In this case, the "Reagan" aircraft carrier strike group should not stay in the South China Sea.

Chinese military expert Zhang Xuefeng said that although the United States has not yet decided to visit Taiwan, the U.S. military obviously prepares for it. The ship's home port is located in Yokosuka, Japan. It is equipped with the 5th Shipblag Airlines Union deployed at the Japanese Rock Kingdom Marine Corps Air Station. One electronic warfare squadron, 1 logistics support squadron and 2 helicopter squadrons. Among them, about 48 fighters of the attack fighter squadron.

RC-135V, why is it disturbing the South China Sea

On July 27, an RC-135V of the US Air Force set off from the Royal Air Force Base in Darwin, Australia, flew thousands of kilometers into the South China Sea, and reconciled in Nansha. The South China Sea's strategic situation has captured some of its routes and believes that this flight is rare. According to Flightradar24 on the flight tracking platform, the aircraft arrived at the Australian Darwin base just a day ago.

Zhang Xuefeng believes that there are not many situations in the South China Sea from this direction. They usually take off from the US military base in Japan and enter the South China Sea after the southeast coast of China. The RC-135V reconnaissance aircraft was temporarily dispatched to Australia, and then quickly took off from the Darwin base to the Nansha Islands in the South China Sea. Deploy and mobilize for reconnaissance. Another may be the "road" for the next step of B-2.

According to previous US media reports, under the support of multi-KC-135 and KC-10 air tankers, the two groups of B-2 bombers landed on July 10 and 12, respectively. To support the deployment of the Pacific Air Force Bomber Special Forces (BTF). This deployment is not common. Because four stealth bombers are deployed at a time, the number of B-2 bomber is small, and it is also more delicate, so it is usually deployed with a small number of 2 to 3.

Zhang Xuefeng analyzed that B-2 has started training after arriving in Australia. If long-range training is conducted, a more likely direction is the direction of the South China Sea. On the one hand, the countries in the South China Sea are deterred. Essence RC-135 takes a trip first, "find out" the radar deployment around the route, and then provide data support for the B-2 invisible bomber planning route.

Two "Lightning Carrier" squatting Japan?

In addition to the "Reagan" aircraft carrier strike group, there are two "quasi -aircraft carrier" deployed in Japan in the United States, which can theoretically provide strategies for the United States' actions in Asia -Pacific. According to information on the official website of the US Navy Association on July 25, the "Ripry" amphibious attack ship was located in Okinawa, Japan. According to media reports, the "Rapoli" left the California San Diego Naval Base on May 2 and deployed it alone to the Pacific Ocean. The ship is full of 45,000 tons, equipped with 20 F-35B "lightning" II joint attack fighters. This deployment is used to evaluate the "lightning carrier" combat concept of the Marine Corps. That is, through the F-35B "Lightning" II take-off and vertical landing fighter, it has some combat capabilities of the aircraft carrier. Although the F-35B has low main technical combat parameters such as voyage and bomb capacity in the F-35 series, it still has an advantage in non-invisible fighters. The ship is currently the nearest large deck water surface ship. In addition, according to the information of "Fleet Tracking", the "US" amphibious attack ship is located in Sasieba Port, Japan. It is the only cutting -edge amphibious attack ship of the U.S. Navy. It can also be equipped with an F-35B fighter, which can be turned into a "lightning carrier". In February this year, the ship's social media account showed that the 31st Naval Marine Corps Expeditionary Force's F-35B "Lightning" II fighter and the "US" amphibious attack ship performed in the Philippines.

Regarding the current deployment and related activities of the U.S. military in the Western Pacific region, Zhang Xuefeng said that this further shows that the US military is a troublemaker, peace destroyer and the biggest instability factor in the Western Pacific region. The U.S. military and politics have recently accused China of being "aggressive." However, the fact that the US military's surroundings in China showed that the US military was "aggressive".
