According to various reports, 2 B-52s and 3 KC-135s of the USAF from Guam attempted to enter the Taiwan Strait, but were intercepted and chased away by 19 PLAAF J-10s. Upon reaching the southern tip of Taiwan, as the B-52s and KC-135s were about to turn around and enter the Taiwan Strait to the north, they ran head-on into the J-10s that were already standing by in the region. After a faceoff, the American warplanes were then forced to flee south.

If people don't believe that the Taiwan maps are B.S., they should now. How the hell do 19 planes perform a turn like that simultaneously?

Is that contraption suppose to simulate ejection seats?

With all the ladies watching on the right side? That will definitely cause some mental stress while ejecting .

I think so.

Interesting tunnel on G6 highway right next to Damxung Airport. Near the Electricity power line, there are few more protrusions which surely look something different and could be for communication from sensitive items in tunnel
