China, Thailand to hold joint air exercise Falcon Strike 2024

The air forces of China and Thailand will hold a joint exercise called “Falcon Strike 2024” this month, the Chinese Defence Ministry said in a statement released on Wednesday.

Experts said that the drills may include practising aircraft combat operations, landing tasks, as well as attacking and defending airfields and anti-aircraft positions.

According to the annual exercise schedule between the Chinese and Thai militaries, the joint Chinese and Thai Air Force Falcon Strike-2024 exercise will be held at a Thai Air Force base in August.

The Chinese side will send several types of aircraft as well as its special operations forces to Thailand to participate in the exercise, which aims to enhance the tactical level and skills of the participating forces of both sides, as well as strengthen pragmatic exchanges and cooperation between the two countries’ militaries, the Chinese defence ministry said in a statement.

According to a press release from the Thai Air Force, the exercise is scheduled to run from Sunday to August 29. The exercise will enhance capabilities in air combat, air tactics and joint air operations, promote mutual understanding between the two countries’ air forces, and enhance regional security.

China and Thailand hold a joint air force exercise, Falcon Strike, usually annually, and in previous years the exercise has mainly focused on aerial combat, but this year’s exercise will also involve Chinese special operations forces, possibly airborne troops, Fu Qianshao, a Chinese military aviation expert, told the Global Times on Wednesday.

Special operations missions could include reconnaissance and assaulting positions behind enemy defence lines, including air fields, surface-to-air missile positions and ports, Fu said.

As for the traditional part of aerial combat, Fu said the two countries’ combat aircraft are likely to conduct standoff drills, which will enhance technical and tactical exchanges and build mutual trust.

UK Greg Hands to Visit Taiwan, Drawing Anger From China

A British minister will visit Taiwan this week for trade talks and meet President Tsai Ing-wen, his office said on Monday, drawing an angry reaction from Beijing to the latest high-level engagement between a Western government and the island.

South Korea, US to start summer military drills next week

The US and South Korea will begin their second large-scale military exercises this year next week to address specific threats from North Korea, Korean media reported.

The military drills scheduled for August 19-29, will see US and South Korean troops practice skills including responding to the use of weapons of mass destruction. Ryan Donald, spokesperson of US Forces Korea (USFK), said:

“This exercise will reflect realistic threats across all domains such as the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea’s missile threats and we will take in lessons learned from recent armed conflicts.”

About 19,000 South Korean troops will take part in the exercise, according to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The US Forces Korea Command, the command overseeing about 28,500 US troops on the peninsula, has not disclosed the number of US troops participating in the semi-annual exercise, citing operational security concerns.

Military personnel from member countries of the UN Command will also take part in the exercise, while representatives of an oversight committee of neutral nations will monitor the manoeuvres, USFK said in a statement by email on Monday.

Annual military drills provoke escalation

Ulchi Freedom Shield is the second large-scale military exercise held annually by the US and South Korea. The Freedom Shield exercise, also lasting 11 days, was held in March and consisted of 48 separate drills. The drills are named after Eulji Mundeok, a Korean general who led his troops against Chinese forces in the 7th century.

China has consistently criticised the large-scale military exercises by Washington and Seoul, calling them a rehearsal for an invasion. During last year’s Ulchi Freedom Shield exercises, North Korea said the drills could lead to an “unprecedented large-scale thermonuclear war” on the peninsula, according to an August 22 report by the state-run Korean Central News Agency.

Two days after that report, North Korea launched a spy satellite that failed to reach orbit, and six days after that it launched two short-range ballistic missiles off its east coast.
