J-15 locks on to F-15: Koizumi Shinichiro claims has requested China: Prevent such incidents from happening again!
According to Japanese reports, the two instances of illumination occurred on the 6th at 4:32 pm to 4:35 pm, and at 6:37 pm to 7:08 pm, both locations were in international waters east of Ryukyu, a certain distance away from Japanese airspace.
It is worth noting that the F-15 conducting the mission was not randomly patrolling, but rather specifically deployed for reconnaissance and espionage missions targeting the "Liaoning" carrier group's activities. This indicates that both sides have been in a high state of alert in this area.
So why did the J-15 choose to lock on to the incoming F-15? One possibility is a tactical test - simulating a lock-on to assess the Japanese response speed and electronic warfare capabilities; another possibility is a serious warning against Japan's recent continuous provocations.
After the incident, Japan quickly raised an objection through diplomatic channels, and Koizumi Shinichiro represented the official statement, loudly promoting the image of a "victim."
In fact, the J-15 was merely a self-defense retaliation under the threat in international waters. It must be said that Japan is quite cunning, trying to use this incident to drag the United States into it, but so far the White House has refused to comment.
