China sends warplanes to newly established air defense zone

China confirmed that it had flown warplanes over the country’s newly established East China Sea Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ) on Thursday, state media reported.

The zone roused controversy when it was announced last week, as it covered disputed territory claimed by China, Japan, Taiwan and South Korea.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang told a daily press briefing that civilian flights have not been impacted, Xinhua news agency reported. China has said that all planes flying through the zone should submit flight plans and identify themselves, or their operators would end up facing "defensive emergency measures."

“We expect all sides, including aviation companies, to actively coordinate with us and jointly safeguard flight safety,” Qin said.

Earlier Thursday, Japan and South Korea, key US allies in East Asia, sent their own military aircraft into the zone's airspace in an act of defiance.

Both countries' air forces flew planes into the disputed area following a similar flight Monday by two unarmed American B-52 bombers. Neither country informed the Chinese of their plans in advance, in an apparent snub of Beijing’s claims to the airspace.

Japan’s ANA Holdings and Japan Airlines said Tuesday that they would stop submitting flight plans to Chinese aviation authorities. Both carriers had been previously informing China of flights through the recently established zone.

Both said that they would cease to do so as of Wednesday, after Japan’s Transport Minister Akihiro Ota called the declaration of China’s defense zone “not valid at all” and urged noncompliance.

Yeah.. That's why they always avoid US unarmed bombers ...

China is just trying to save her face nothing more than that. I am pretty sure that once again Japenese, South Korean or American jets will fly in this zone and China will not be able to do anything other than escorting them to their sky. If they will fire towards it then hell will break out for China. Japanese, Korea and US is on the same page and they will do it again.

I repeat, if the intention of the flight is heading toward our national airspace, then our military will take immediate action if it deems not cooperating with our authority. If these flights are just passing through the zone without any intention of heading toward our national airspace, then nothing will happen. We will just monitor the flight and no action is needed.

If you want to see a showdown, ask the US/SK/Japan to fly toward our national airspace in the zone. I swear some people have such low IQ and it becomes frustrating to talk in here.
