On Sunday (20/5) China carried out a stirring action of the world after the successful flying of H-6K long-range nuclear bombers over the South China Sea.
The nuclear bombships manufactured by Chinas were the development of the Russian plane, the twin-engined Tu-16 was able to fly freely over the South China Sea.
There is a possibility based on data submitted by the Asia Maritime Transparency Initiative, the H-6K had crossed Indonesian airspace at an altitude of 12,800 km (42,000 ft) before it finally landed on an archipelago (Woody Island) located in the South China Sea.
So far the Chinese Air Force has more than 100 units of H-6K bombers that have gradually been up grade so they can be used as cruise missile launchers including nuclear missiles.
The H-6K flight which can have a cruising range of up to 6000 km above the South China Sea, is clearly a serious threat to countries in the Asia-Pacific region that have overlapping borders with China, such as Japan, Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam , and Indonesia.
