The Islamic Republic of Iran has reportedly opened its airspace to Chinese warplanes taking part in joint military maneuvers with Turkey, Press TV reported.

Ankara and Beijing conducted the drills in Turkey's Central Anatolia region last month.

The war games, codenamed the Anatolian Eagle, were the first involving Turkey and China. Turkey had previously carried out Anatolian Eagle maneuvers with the US and other NATO members as well as Israel.

Turkish F-16, Chinese Su-27 and Mig-29 fighter jets took part in mock dogfights during the drills.

This is extremley interesting at this time.

We all know that China is without doubt Iran's biggest Allie. With Isreals picking up its war talk against Iran, and recent attacks on Irans Nuclear facilities with the Computer Virus, could this be their way of saying "Big Brother is here Isreal, hands off".
