On May 18, the PLAAF announced that the H-6K nuclear bomber, also known as 'God of War', had landed at  Yongxing Island in the Xisha Island group in the South China Sea. Before the H-6K landed on  Yongxing Island, China deployed missiles and radar jamming equipment on islands in the Xisha group of islands. The H-6K bomber has a range of 8,000 kilometers and a combat radius of more than 3,000 kilometers, which means that from Yongxing Island China can bring the entire South China Sea within its bombing radius.
