Japan's radar did not detect Chinese Y-12 flying over Diaoyu Island.

Japan's expensive radar array aimed at Chinese aircraft.

Coverage of Janpan's X band radar, in theory....

Japan's FPS-5 radar array, will detect anything coming out of China, in theory....

Japan's long range missile monitoring radar array.

Y12 flew in from due south without being detected by any of the aboved mentioned radar system.

Y12 was hovering above the island 60 m from the sea level

Japan's FPS-3 radar in Chongsheng (Okinawa)

Modified version of FPS-3

Japan has 28 FPS-3 radar station, they served rather as US's early warning system than Japan's, Y12's breaking in actually embarrassed more the US, in this case,
China may see a lot of US intervention coming from US's pacific fleet.

the curve of the planet makes FPS3 blind.

Japan will dispatch more E2-Cs to cover the blind spot in the future

it was japan coast guard fleet spot the Y12, Japan has more advanced maritime surveillance ship than China, most of its boats travel at 25 knots but most of China's MS boats travel at 18 knots, but things are changing fast, China retired its old destroyers and frigates and reassigned them to Maritime Surveillance, most of them travel above 30 knots and with much larger displacement.

Japan sent out their F15J to scramble Chinese planes, F15J is aging out and were all forced to ground due to some major accident occurred in recent years. Japanese F15 pilots literally see parts fallen from the aircraft during the flight.

Why Japs use Chinese characters? it looks civil war now. Unlike Vietnam, Philippine, Japs do not come here to debate, nor keyborad fighting. they just silent or strike attack.

Ha! I'm more interested in knowing who that newscaster is, the one in the first pic.

The rest is just propaganda BS.

Same character, same race. Though felt ugly to say that.

i think Japs radar was no better then Pakistani radar at the time of OBL raid, it is not like war time with 24 X 7 radar coverage. Our they have shot it down and China claiming unarmed plane was shoot down by Japan. If China want to play with fire they need to take responsiblity for any loss of life through such stupid action.

China may try same next time, i am sure Japan self defence forces will defend their land.

China should take the Island since Japanese cannot detect them. Don't
worry about US military satellites over the island.
