Tension is increasing in the countries of the Indian Pacific region. Due to Russia’s attack on Ukraine and China’s strong military preparations to occupy Taiwan, the situation seems to be moving towards war. After the Ukraine war, both China and Russia have united and the Xi Jinping government is openly helping Moscow. Chinese and Russian bombers have flown over the Sea of Japan several times. Both China and Russia are trying to intimidate America and its allies Japan and South Korea. China also recently sent its huge new aircraft carrier to Japanese waters for the first time. There is a long-standing dispute between China and Japan over the Senkaku Islands. Japan fears that after occupying Taiwan, China may also capture Senkaku. Friend India has come forward openly to help Japan which is struggling with China’s bullying. India’s Russian Sukhoi-30 fighter jets have reached Japan. The Japanese Army issued a statement saying that they have welcomed the Indian Air Force’s Sukhoi-30 MKI fighter jets at their Komatsu Air Base this month. Indian aircraft conducted air exercises with Japanese fighter jets on 5 and 6 November. During this, the Indian pilot flew Japan’s F-15 fighter jet, which shows the growing trust between the two countries. The Indian Sukhoi jet had arrived under the Japan-India Defense Partnership Programme. Japan has become alert due to the military preparations of the Chinese Dragon and is purchasing weapons and missiles from America on a large scale.
China will get chilli from Indian Sukhoi
Japan’s Komatsu airbase is the base for the Japanese Air Force’s F-15 Eagle fighter jets. If China attacks Taiwan or Japan, this airbase will be very important. Pilots from India and Japan practiced to deal with aerial threats. During this, precise attack on enemy areas or targets was also practiced. India’s Sukhoi-30 fighter jet is made by Russia. The Russian Air Force also uses it extensively. China has also made a copy of it. In such a situation, Japanese pilots also realized the power of Sukhoi. With this, they will be able to take advantage of this experience in any future war with China or Russia. For this reason, China may also feel irritated by India’s arrival at Sukhoi.
Indian pilots got the experience of F-15 fighter jet. America is pressurizing India to buy F-35 fighter jet but its approval has not been received yet. It is believed that India can buy Russian Sukhoi-57 fighter jet. While India’s Sukhoi-30 can carry heavy bombs and missiles like BrahMos, the American F-15 jet is known in the world for dog fighting. In recent years, there has been a lot of cooperation between Quad member countries Japan and India, from Air Force to Navy. Indian warships had also visited Japan recently. China feels that this is a kind of siege.
