The naval aviation force of the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN or Chinese Navy) sent its Shenyang J-11BH and Xian H-6G aircraft on June 10 to the airspace over the sea area in east of the Bashi Channel, West Pacific Ocean, to conduct a coordinated training exercise with a Chinese naval taskforce cruising in that sea area, Chinese Navy Spokesperson Liang Yang said on Wednesday.

The expected goals have been achieved through the training exercise, according to Liang Yang.

Liang Yang pointed out that the PLA Navy's training exercise in the West Pacific Ocean is a routine arrangement of its annual training plan, which is not aimed at any specific country/region or target and complies with relevant international laws and practices. The training exercise hasn't affected the freedom of navigation and flight in relevant sea area and airspace, Liang added.

Liang also expressed that sending warships and aircraft to conduct open-sea coordinated training is the PLA Navy's regular practice and also a common practice of world navies, and China will continue to carry out such training activities in the future.

The Bashi Strait is also the obligatory passage of the 094 SSBN when they go on patrol to the western Pacific.
