The Reckless Air Doctrines Used By Chinese Fighter Pilots Have Come Under Extreme Criticism Following Similar Incidents Over The South China Sea

A Chinese Chengdu J-7 fighter jet crashed in the Hubei city of Xiangyang yesterday, killing one and injuring two others.

The pilot ejected to safety and has been arrested by police.

The modernized Cold War era jet fighter based on the Soviet Mig-21, was on a training mission when the pilot did a risky maneuver and stalled his aircraft.

However, CCP authorities deny that the manoeuvres performed by the pilot contributed to the crash.

Many nations including the United States, Canada, and Australia have criticized the Chinese air doctrine for being: “Reckless and a harm to Chinese and other pilots”.

The Chinese government has yet to give an official comment on the crash.
