What is the ADIZ?
It is an area designated by a coastal state beyond its territorial airspace to identify, monitor, control and expel aircraft with potential threats entering the zone. This is a necessary measure taken by China in exercising its self-defense right by allowing early warnings and providing air security. Civil aircraft will not be affected in any way.
Who has such zones?
