Military disputes risk deepening US-China rift

Posted by Matt in January 10th, 2008

But what bothered U.S. Navy brass more was China’s Nov. 20, 2007 refusal of Hong Kong port calls by two U.S. mine sweepers trying to avoid bad weather. Pacific Fleet Commander Admiral Tim Keating was clearly irritated. “It is not, in our view, conduct indicative of a country that understands its obligations as a responsible nation,” he fumed. The United States made a formal protest, and U.S. President George W. Bush even raised the issue with PRC Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi.

The protest–delivered by David Sedney, deputy assistant secretary of defense for East Asia, to Major General Zhao Ning, the Chinese defense attache in Washington–stated, “The denial of the USS Patriot and USS Guardian requests to refuel and avoid severe weather is contrary to commonly accepted international maritime safety protocols.” It went on to proclaim that “such cancellations run counter to our joint interest in positively developing our military-to-military relations.”

While Shenyang has been engaged in a brand new F/A-22-class stealth fighter design known as J-12, Chengdu has been focusing its development effort on an enlarged twin-engine, stealth version of its J-10 fighter possibly designated J-13. J-13 may be powered by two improved AL-41 turbofan engines with thrust-vectoring nozzles and possibly supersonic cruise capability too, giving a maximum take-off weight of 20t and a maximum altitude speed of Mach 2.45.
