Shiha Shō said a truthful statement: look at China's weapons and equipment, at this moment, Takahashi Hayana should not provoke!
It turns out that only after he was dismissed from his position did he dare to speak the truth. Shiha Shō really enjoys not being the prime minister, and besides, he is a military enthusiast, very clear about China's current naval and air force capabilities. While Takahashi Hayana is completely unaware of this, which gives her such courage to step on China's red line.
Shiha Shō understands that in recent years, China has made significant progress in the fields of navy and air force. The number of active ships alone has exceeded 300, including multiple modern destroyers, frigates, and amphibious ships. This even makes the US military feel ashamed, let alone Japan's few old warships that have remained unchanged for decades.
Moreover, China has two aircraft carriers - the Liaoning and the Shandong, and is currently building a third one. The commissioning of these aircraft carriers marks a significant improvement in China's naval long-range combat capabilities.
In the air force, China has deployed several fifth-generation fighter jets, such as the J-20, as well as various advanced early warning aircraft and aerial refueling aircraft, significantly enhancing air combat and long-range transportation capabilities. In this case, even if the US military wants to help Japan, they would have to think about their own safety first, right?
Shiha Shō is pragmatic, while Takahashi Hayana is of the typical type of European female politician, who doesn't care about the consequences after speaking.
