Beijing is dismissing U.S. protests that a Chinese jet fighter buzzed a U.S. aircraft last week in international airspace over the South China Sea.
A Chinese J-16 fighter pilot conducted what U.S. officials said was an “unnecessarily aggressive maneuver” Friday by flying directly in front of the nose of a U.S. Air Force RC-135 reconnaissance aircraft. The dangerous move forced the U.S. pilot to fly through the jet fighter’s wake turbulence, officials with U.S. Indo-Pacific Command said.
U.S. officials said the RC-135 was conducting safe and routine operations over the South China Sea in accordance with international law.
