What happened on July 2,2024 and its impact

The leaders of the Philippines grew some spine, balls and brains. A little bit of each.

There’s hope for the future after all.

Technical detail : the US Navy lost an electronic warfare to the Chinese Navy on July 2, 2024 at Huangyan Island (Scarborough Shoal) ~ 200 km west of Subic Bay, Luzon Island, Philippines. It means that not having the upper hand in the South China Sea for electronic warfare makes any intermediate range missiles owned by the US useless.

So it was not only a political decision from the Philippines. Manila removes US missiles system after China warning, true but there is a military background behind the decision of the Filipino leadership.
