Taiwan denies shooting down a Chinese Su-35 fighter jet after social media footage shows crashed plane on fire

[K Shehzad]

Taiwanese officials have denied that it shot down a Chinese Su-35 fighter jet after social media footage of the wreckage of a plane burning near a building emerged.

Footage circulated on Twitter shows the wreckage engulfed in flames and thick smoke. Several online accounts claimed that it was a Sukhoi Su-35 fighter plane that fell down in the city of Guilin in southern Chinese province Guangxi.

The military jet was claimed to have been shot down by Taiwan after it intruded into the Taiwan Strait and the South China Sea, according to the accounts.

Taiwan's Ministry of National Defence issued a statement today, saying that the claim of it shooting down a Chinese Su-35 fighter jet was 'false information'.

Terrifying footage shows the wreckage swallowed by blaze while thick smoke billowed from the scene.

An onlooker can be heard saying: ‘A plane has fallen. A fighter jet.’

Another clip shows a man, believed to be the pilot, lying on a stretcher while being surrounded by residents. The pilot is said to have suffered severe injuries, according to the online accounts.

Taiwan's Ministry of National Defence issued a statement on Friday, denying that it had shot down a Chinese Su-35 fighter jet.

'The Air Force Command solemnly refutes that this is false information and completely untrue,' the notice read.

If the Indians had checked maps first to see how far Guilin was from Taiwan they would have not made such a stupid lie.

They are a solid testimony to the legend of iq82 If they represent so called "educated Indians", one can only imagine the stupidity level of 90% less educated Indians who don't speak English and can't run a simple google search.

This is a mass of hopeless land that Indians fancy it as "the largest democracy"!

Indians are practising collective open defecation on the entire Internet. But let's never forget whose fault this ultimately is: China's. If it weren't for pricks like the one who owns Xiaomi putting affordable smartphones into the hands of Indians, this infestation would never have occured.

As I've said before, China should just completely decouple from India and withdraw all investments/trade. Sure it will cost China tens of billions in the near term but in the long term, this action will set India back at least a century. Without Chinese APIs (comprising over 90% of India's suppliers) supplying India's cheap generic drug industry, it will vanish overnight.

Looks like Huawei is leading the way out of India. But as usual ordinary Indians will not understand the significance of such decision for the long term.

Looks like Modi India has totally lost control of the COVID pandemic. It is relying and placing its hope on herd immunity.

The best part was Indians starting to attack and insult ROC accounts thinking they are POC accounts.

Well, to be fair, the most recent study about IQ, carried out by independent scholars, give Indians even lower IQ score at 78 on average.

Not too bad, but the IQ they estimated for current mean score of southern African states are also in the 70s range (higher than previous estimation by other scholars).

That explain a lot of their behaviors and regular illogical nonsense, for a country with such low IQ score, the majority of them will have serious difficulties to analysis and reasoning, the very few who have logic mind will be buried by the cry of the retarded mass.

Atleast the Taiwanese are not shameless liars like the Indians who still claim to
have shot down a F16 without firing a missile.

Looks more like somebody is burning a pile of garbage. This supposed pile of wreckage is amazingly well contained.

J-10 crash as a result of an unlucky bird strike. Official report here.

Chengdu J-10 Multirole Fighter Air Craft News & Discussions

J-10C should have the edge over the F-16 at high altitude engagements due to it’s canard-delta design, whereas F-16 should have the edge in low to mid altitudes. I would think the F-35 derived APG-83 would be better than the AESA radar on the J-10C and so that may cause J-10C pilots targeting...

Thread closed since report itself was correct and case is closed now!

There was no downing by Taiwan, not even a Su-35 was involved. It was a simple crash of a J-10C.
