Chinese Bombers Flying ‘Attack Drills’ Over South China Sea
Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) H-6G and H-6J bombers practised night-time take offs and long-range bombing runs in military drills over the contested South China Sea. The Chinese H-6 bombers are capable of carrying anti-ship missiles. Collin Koh, a Research Fellow at the RSIS, told The South China Morning Post that the bombers may have been training for scenarios including “maritime strikes on U.S. Navy carrier strike groups.”
