Following this, the U.S. and Japan would likely deploy their most advanced weapons, knowing that fighting the PLA is no joke and they can’t afford to be careless. Within the first three hours of the conflict, U.S. and Japanese warplanes could destroy China’s coastal airports, air defense missile sites, and early warning aircraft. F-35 stealth fighters would launch anti-radiation missiles to take out China’s long-range air defense systems, such as the S-300, S-400, and HQ-9, and the PLA’s ship-based air defense systems wouldn’t escape either.#chinaobserver
