China sending jets to support Russia in Syria?

Did you hear China is now involved with things in Syria? Times like this I wish I was a fly in the situation room hearing the plans we have (or lack there of plans) to fight all these guys when/if things turn sour.

Sir, there are a lot of simmering pots right now that could boil over at any time.

This should give us a chance to down a jet either by air-to-air combat or a drone kill. Oops. My bad...! LOL

I doubt if that fly on the wall would be hearing much realistic thinking.

Have also heard conflicting reports about China sending ships into the Med off Syria to help the Russians. Some reports said a cruiser and one even said that their carrier was coming. They have had ships off Somalia participating in the anti-piracy patrols so it is not inconceivable for them to send a few up to Syria. Times like this I miss the daily intel brief! I do give talk of Chinese participation some credibility as that would allow Russians to say they have a coalition on their side.
