There is chaos on the island, and both the political arena and the military are out of touch. The Lai authorities wantonly operated the "green terror," and the people on the island were already excited, and the most crucial "killing weapon" crashed and collapsed at this time. At this sensitive moment, the PLA J-16 and Air Police-500 flew in a formation to Taiwan Island.

A few days ago, a Mirage 2000 fighter on the island, during night flight training, there was a problem with the engine, the pilot called the relevant departments "the engine power can not be maintained", only one minute, the pilot was forced to parachute to escape, fortunately has been successfully rescued. Lai Qingde, Gu Lixiong, and others personally visited the pilot in the hospital, but the specific cause of the accident has not yet been ascertained, and the wreckage of the plane has not been found.
According to the preliminary investigation by the Taiwan authorities, the total number of hours of use of the wrecked plane has reached 3,371 hours, and the total number of hours of use of the engines on board is 3,123 hours. However, in the face of long-term aging, maintenance seems to be no longer effective.
Zhang Yanting, a retired Taiwan general, said that the engine used in the Mirage 2000 fighter has been discontinued in France and can only be repaired, not completely renewed.
It is reported that the batch of Mirage 2000 was purchased from France by Taiwan in 1992 and entered service in 1997, and has been in service for more than 25 years, and there have been 9 major flight safety accidents, 7 fighters have been scrapped, and a total of 5 pilots have died.
Zhang Yanting stressed that because the fighter has been in service for a long time, the engine can only be refurbished. As a result of continuous renovations, reliability and safety have plummeted, and the rate of wrecking in the future will only increase.

Analysts said that although Taiwan spent about $800 million this year to replace parts for the Mirage 2000, the model is too old and its performance can no longer be improved, and Taiwan's air power has encountered the most urgent crisis. At present, all Mirage 2000 fighters in the Hsinchu base have been grounded for inspection.
The island's political arena is also unstable. Recently, Ke Wenzhe's case has caused an uproar, and a large number of people on the island have already held demonstrations to protest against the "politicization of the judiciary" by the Lai authorities. Analysts believe that if this matter is indeed a "judicial persecution" by the Lai authorities, then Lai Qingde hopes to make Taiwan "officially enter the era of Lai Qingde."
A few days ago, Chen Binhua, spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, said in response to relevant questions that since Lai Qingde came to power, he has continued to manipulate administrative and judicial methods, and the party has fought against differences, and the island has now fallen into "green terror". All the forces that do not support the DPP, and all people from all walks of life who run counter to its "independent thinking," have been persecuted. For the sake of Lai Qingde's own interests and the interests of the Democratic Progressive Party behind him, he continued to act recklessly.

The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council stressed that "Taiwan independence" is a dead end. As soon as the words fell, the People's Liberation Army also took direct action. At a time when both the political and military forces on the island were out of touch, the PLA dispatched a total of 19 military planes and nine warships to patrol the island. It has been learned that the PLA dispatched J-16, Air Police-500, and other main and auxiliary fighters of various types, and basically ignored the so-called "center line of Taiwan Island" and cooperated with warships to carry out "joint combat readiness patrols."
Just as the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council said, "cross-strait reunification" is the right path and the general trend of history, and no amount of turbulence in the political arena on the island can change the process of the motherland's reunification. The Lai authorities are now continuing to act recklessly and purge forces on the island, but they have aroused public indignation, and the fighter plane, which is now the most proud, has also gone awry. The People's Liberation Army will use its strength to make Lai Qingde see clearly that "Taiwan independence" can only be crushed.
