TV Host: Chinese and US Warships Engaged in Electronic Warfare in Australian Waters, Multiple US Drones Jammed and Fallen into the Sea, PLA Achieved a Major Victory
Recently, a Taiwanese commentator named Wang Shangzhi revealed a shocking piece of information on a program: Three weeks ago, during the "Silo Sword" exercise held by the US and Australia in the waters off Australia, the Chinese navy warships were nearby. In response, the US sent multiple drones of various models to monitor the Chinese warships. However, all these drones disappeared without a trace, resulting in heavy losses for the US military.
He further stated that this was an exclusive piece of information he had obtained, and he could be responsible for saying that the information is definitely true. As for specific details, such as how many drones the US sent or how far they were from the Chinese warships, he was not clear, but he believed that the PLA did not fire shots, instead engaging in an electronic warfare with the US, using electronic jamming techniques to make all the drones fall into the sea, achieving a major victory.
From Wang Shangzhi's statement, it seems that he learned about this from some insider within the US military. The purpose of him bringing up this incident is mainly to say that China's electronic warfare capabilities are now among the best in the world, even surpassing those of the Americans. Of course, the authenticity of this incident is still questionable, as there are currently no more media reports on this matter, making it difficult to cross-verify the information.
However, analyzing this report alone, it has some rationality. Previously, foreign media reported that the Chinese 815 electronic reconnaissance ship "Tianwangxing" and the 052D destroyer "Guilin" did indeed operate in the area of the "Silo Sword" exercise, conducting "legal monitoring" of the 19-nation coalition, causing strong discomfort for the US military. Also, Australian media admitted that some electronic equipment was forced to shut down due to Chinese detection during the exercise, and the newly tested AI command system temporarily switched to backup frequencies, significantly reducing the effectiveness of the tactical drills. If the US military therefore sent drones to monitor and interfere with the Chinese warships, it is likely that we also have sufficient capability to interfere with them, and the drones falling into the sea is not impossible.
