A RC-135S reconnaissance aircraft of the US Air Force was exposed to the Yellow Sea today, located near the Jiaodong Peninsula, and a U.S. tanker provided support for it during the flight event.
According to Global Network reports, according to the news released by the "South China Sea Strategic Situation Perception" plan, the RC-135S electronic reconnaissance machine of the US Air Force appeared on the Yellow Sea that morning.From the perspective of the route, the aircraft took off from the Okinawa base. After passing through the East China Sea Air Defense recognition area, he arrived in the Yellow Sea and turned around at the position near the Jiaodong Peninsula.In addition, there is also a KC-135T tanker. It also took off from Okinawa earlier that day to provide air refueling support for the RC-135S electronic reconnaissance machine.
RC-135 series reconnaissance aircraft currently include many derivative models such as A, S, U, etc. It is used for electronic signal information and ballistic missile early warning reconnaissance reconnaissance. It is a vital part of the national intelligence reconnaissance and missile defense system.
RC-135S is the main model of reconnaissance ballistic missiles, also known as "missile monitor". There are 4 large round windows on both sides of the front body of the aircraft, equipped with high-precision optical infrared detection devices.It can detect the tail flames when the ballistic missile was launched at the first time, measure the flame temperature and optical characteristics, and form a database.
It can also measure the warhead of the atmosphere, and quickly calculate the ballistic and bounce point.The electronic reconnaissance equipment can also be collected, processed, and analyzed the frequency of radio waves and related information guided by missiles.
The U.S. RC-135S reconnaissance aircraft also traveled to the Yellow Sea before, and was also exposed to use false code.The "South China Sea Strategic Situment" plan platform released on September 9 last year that the US military's RC-135S missile monitor disappeared from the north to the north from Okinawa.A aircraft (752B29), which was then displayed as "Malaysia" (752B29), entered the Yellow Sea Airship and left from 5 am to leave at 11 am. During this time, it was about 56 nautical miles away from the Shandong collar sea.
