In the past four days, China’s Air Force has flown 149 aircraft inside Taiwan’s air defense zone, including 56 on Monday – the largest incursion ever – which included three dozen fighter jets and a dozen bombers.  

The first wave of Chinese jets arrived on Friday, the anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the communist victory over U.S.-supported nationalist forces in China’s decades long civil war that ended in 1949.  

The flights have continued for three more days.  Some days saw multiple waves of Chinese planes.

Over the weekend, four aircraft carriers — two from the U.S., one from the U.K. and another from Japan – began large-scale war games in the Western Pacific. The British and Japanese warships have U.S. Marine Corps F-35 stealth fighter jets aboard in addition to dozens of helicopters.  

USS Ronald Reagan and Carl Vinson are the two American aircraft carriers. Reagan recently steamed off the coast of Pakistan during the fall of Afghanistan. Vinson left San Diego in August carrying F-35Cs and Ospreys, the first U.S. carriers to do so.  

This western armada has at least 17 warships from six different countries.
