中国战机数量 日本战机升空次数创冷战后最高水平

日本战机升空次数创冷战后最高水平  

As territorial tensions flared in East Asia
Japan's air force scrambled jets against Chinese and Russian planes far more often during the year that ended in March than in recent years
pushing the total number of such maneuvers to the highest since the end of the Cold War.
Japan's Self-Defense Forces said Wednesday it scrambled jets against foreign aircraft 810 times during the year ended March 31
breaking the 800-mark for the first time since the year ending March 1989. The latest total was a 43% increase from 567 a year earlier.
Bumping up the number was increased activity against Chinese planes
with the o nations playing cat-and-mouse games involving ships and planes as tensions persisted over a group of contested islands in the East China Sea. Sorties against Chinese planes soared to 415
pared with 306 a year earlier
and just 38 in the year ending March 2010.
日本战机升空的次数大幅增加主要是为了应对中国飞机活动的增多。中日两国围绕东中国海(East China Sea
中国称东海)上一组存在主权争议岛屿的紧张关系持续发酵，两国舰船和飞机频频上演相互追逐的游戏。截至今年3月底的一年中，日本战机为应对中国飞机而升空的次数大幅增至415次，此前一年为306次，截至2010年3月底的一年中仅38次。
China wasn't the only concern. The Japanese air force scrambled 359 times against Russian planes last year
up from 248 a year earlier.
