Last week the Japanese Ministry of Self-Defense revealed that over half of the total jets scrambled between July and September were scrambled against Chinese planes.
Now, China’s Ministry of National Defense has called for Japan to stop this practice, calling it an “erroneous method”.
But 2ch.net netizens overwhelmingly support the decision to scramble jets against Chinese planes, arguing that this only happens when Chinese planes encroach on Japanese airspace.
From Reuters:
China Requests Japan Stop Scrambling Self-Defense Force Jets
[Beijing October 30, Reuters] On October 30, China requested that Japan stop scrambling its Self-Defense Force planes against Chinese planes. A spokesperson for China’s Ministry of National Defense made the comments at a press conference.
According to an announcement made by Japan’s Ministry of Defense this month, Self-Defense Force places were scrambled against Chinese planes 103 times between July and September 2014. It was revealed that this comprised more than half of the total number of scrambles.
The spokesperson for China’s Ministry of National Defense stated that “This inevitably causes aviation safety issues between China and Japan. We therefore request that Japan stops its erroneous methods”.
