Well, I think their naval assets might find the northern search area difficult to navigate
True enough. Perhaps didn't make myself clear. I was just surprised they had that many ships down south that quickly (although we don't now how far along the southern corridor they are). Presumably they have been busy doing their own analysis of the data. And maybe these 4 days old images have been shared
Still a bit surprised the Chinese appear to have got caught out regarding the "debris" they spotted early on.
