For the 2001 Hainan collision the US and Chinese accounts are both given, and for the exercises around Taiwan since 2023 Beijing&rsquo;s description of the drills and Taiwan&rsquo;s aircraft counts are each attributed. Where a consolidated sortie or loss figure exists in the official record it is given here; where accounts disagree, the range is shown and the disagreement named.
