Gutless Australia says "Stop! or we'll say stop again".

Australia should be sending its military to attack China NOW!

Gutless Australia relies on the USA like a dog and follows USA instruction. Good doggy - all bark, no bite.

We should stop sending them our iron ore and and cripple them first and then go and blow them up.

Killing our lobsters was their 1st and biggest mistake so far and they need to be taught a lesson.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison says a Chinese military vessel shining a laser at an Australian maritime aircraft was an "act of intimidation" that put Defence Force lives at risk.

Defence says the incident occurred at 12:35am on Thursday, when an RAAF P-8A Poseidon detected a military-grade laser illuminating the aircraft while in flight just north of Australia.

Up to 10 personnel were on board the aircraft when the incident occurred.

The Department of Defence says the Chinese vessel, in company with another People's Liberation Army-Navy (PLA-N) ship, was sailing east through the Arafura Sea at the time.

Mr Morrison said the laser could have disabled the aircraft, putting the entire crew at risk.

"I can see it no other way than an act of intimidation, one that was unprovoked, unwarranted and Australia will never accept such acts of intimidation," he said.

"It was a reckless and irresponsible act and it should not occur.

"We are raising those issues directly through the diplomatic and defence channels."

Frogshit. Just Morrison beating up an incident which likely occurs on a routine basis.

How many times have you heard of lasers being pointed at commercial aircraft inside Australia.

Did the PM get all uppity about that?

Thought you had left?

Thinking some more on this.

Fair dinkum. Are our military aircraft so pissweak that they can be disabled by a military laser? Really? An expensive aircraft full of technology rendered useless by a bit of 'cheap' laser? Rubbish.

Further, I do wonder if our aircraft was just innocently passing by and did not 'ping' the Chinese vessel for a bit of fun or.....*shock horror*......knowing that to do so would trigger a laser 'attack' so Morrison and Dutton could go all faux hysterical?

Humbug.

I can see your point but think your solution may be just a tad heavy handed.

I hear the plane had to go back to base in limp mode and at least one of the crew has eye problems. We are already in an unwanted trade war now they have us in their cross hairs.

If you were to walk in front of one of these lasers you would be plasma.

Yes Aussie, the military totally fabricated the incident just for Morrison. As usual you're as thick a pigschit.

Professor Blaxland said the action was a “threat to the aircraft, and it is the precursor to the firing of a kinetic weapon” such as a machine gun, cannon or missile.

“That’s what you do — you laser designate, then you engage. That’s the precursor signal of an attack, and it’s a microsecond away.

“So it is a particularly hostile act, it’s particularly hostile thing to do – quite adversarial and designed to intimidate just below the kinetic threshold.”

It is not the first time China has used lasers against Australian aircraft, with navy helicopter pilots reporting being hit by lasers while exercising in the South China Sea in 2019, forcing them to land nearby as a precaution.

In 2018, the United States issued a formal complaint to the Chinese government over the use of military-grade lasers directed at aircraft which resulted in minor injuries to two American pilots.

Grandma/egg sucking.

And that aircraft might just as easily and conveniently 'pinged' the ship as I described.

We will be fed bullshit.

another court appearance?

Freediver could you delete this multi troll's abusive non post please?

In fact I'll start listing all his posts as they arise. Thanks Freediver.

abusive? For asking a simple question? Where's the abuse? Grin

Unless off course I happened to guess correctly, in which case your reaction is somewhat understandable, although you'd still be wrong to label it abuse.

so what were you in court for this time?

Giving evidence against you. Why are you pretending not to know?

Ok so let's look at the political backdrop here.

Why do you think this is BS?
