Scale exercises -
U.S. forces acted speech is 6 times the Korea-US Huang Haijun
"Japanese Economic News" reported on December 2, December 3, two days after the end of the Han Meijun speech, the Japanese Self-Defense Forces and the U.S. military began to scale up to 4.5 million people (34,100 officers and men of the Armed Forces of Japan and the United States More than 10,400 officers and men) of the sea and air large-scale exercise, setting the Japanese-US joint military exercise in history.

Carried out, including freedom of the seas conflicts have air defense training, shooting at sea on an unprecedented scale exercise.
Exercise duration -
U.S. forces played: 8 days; Hanmei Jun speech: 4 days
Main equipment -
U.S. forces play: B52 bombers participating
Reported that the exercises in the waters east of Okinawa and Japan launched the military bases, to mobilize the SDF 34,000 soldiers, 40 warships, 250 aircraft and 11,000 U.S. troops, 20 warships and 150 fighter planes , far larger than just the end of the Han Meijun speech. Just returned from the U.S. nuclear-powered aircraft carrier the Yellow Sea "Washington" will once again go into battle, while the U.S. B52 bombers will also participate in this exercise.
U.S. Air Force B-52 bomber is subsonic long-range strategic bombers, primarily for the implementation of the nuclear long-range conventional bombing and bombing missions. October 1948 began to design, prototype first flight in 1952, in June 1955 began production B-52B equipped troops, has developed the A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H, 8 type. B-52 was discontinued in October 1962, produced a total of 744. Now B-52 and B-1B, B-2 bomber, the Air Force together form a strategic bomber force.
B-52 strategic bombers, long 49.05 meters, wingspan 56.39 m, Height 12.40 m, with rounded rectangular cross section of the slender body, large aspect ratio of the swept wing and the overall layout of a single vertical tail. Shape between the various types makes little difference. B-52H loaded 8 TF33-P-3 turbofan engines, divided into 4 groups, respectively, under the wing loading on both sides, a single thrust of 75.7 kN (7720 kg force). Aircraft take-off weight of 221.35 tons total, the largest fuel capacity 179,430 liters (with fuel tank 2), or about 135 tons and can carry 27 tons of bombs, the United States is by far the heaviest bombers. Its maximum flight speed of 1,010 km / h (height of 12,200 meters), service ceiling 16,800 meters, the maximum range of 16,100 km of fuel (without refueling), life time of 22 hours.
Hanmei Jun speech, the most concern is the "George Washington" aircraft carrier. "George Washington" entered service in 1992, is America's largest "Nimitz" class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, 333 meters wide and 77 meters, the crew of over 5,500 full load displacement of 97,000 tons. "Washington" were loaded on the aircraft carrier more than 70 carrier-based aircraft. "George Washington" is the world's tonnage, one of the largest aircraft carrier, built in the 80s of last century, with a displacement of 9.8 million tons. The aircraft carrier's deck area is 3 times the football field, including the height of the bridge, including close to 20 floors, up to 81 meters. 3300 a number of the cabin can accommodate more than 6,250 crew members. Ship carrying more than 90 planes F-18 "Hornet" fighter, Super Hornet fighter aircraft, E-2C early warning aircraft and helicopters. "George Washington" of the "former" is to leave Japan in May 2008, the security situation in East Asia during their service is closely related to the conventionally powered aircraft carrier "Kitty Hawk".
Imaginary -
Japan said the exercise is not directed against any specific country
US-South Korea joint military exercises against the DPRK publicly claimed
US-South Korea joint military exercises for a few days ago claimed that the Korean public, "show of force to deter North Korea." So the US-Japan military exercise it? Target a single or multiple?
Japanese sea and air chief of staff for a good commander in chief in the exercise of wood off a press conference before, said: "Japan-US military exercise between the two countries have long planning exercise, do not exist for the nature of any country." Japan's defense minister Kitazawa handsome media before the start of the exercise to say that the military exercise "will naturally take into account the security environment around the change, but we're not targeting a particular country." (Xinhua)
Major General Peng Guangqian well-known military expert guest People's Daily, about the US-Japan joint military exercises and the security situation in Northeast Asia: Han Meijun play called Japan to observe, to watch the US-Japan military exercise called the Republic of Korea.
Two US-military alliance butt?
On the background of the US-Japan military exercises and characteristics, Peng Guangqian said that the US-Japan joint military exercises are large and geographically widespread, time-sensitive, four characteristics of a far-reaching intentions.
Peng said the general, the exercise involves the area from the eastern coast of Hokkaido all the way to Okinawa, from north to south and broad coverage. Finally, the "grand finale" may be in the southwestern islands of Okinawa sea waters started. Since 1986, US-Japan joint military exercises have been engaged nine times, this is the tenth and largest one. Of particular concern is that the "George Washington" aircraft carrier battle group frequent shuttle in the Western Pacific, in addition to an aircraft carrier called the "Carl Vinson", is also being assembled to the exercise area. In non-war period, the United States assembled in the same area two aircraft carrier battle group is rare, most recently the 1996 Taiwan Strait crisis, the U.S. had sent a "Nimitz" and "Independence" to show strength.
The so-called time-sensitive, mainly in the following areas:
First, the U.S. military in Asia-Pacific alliance system to loosen, and is the "US-Japan security treaty," the 50th anniversary of signing of former Japanese want to return to Asia for some time showing signs demanding that the U.S. military base in Okinawa to move out of Okinawa, the United States Japanese relations, there have been some friction. In addition, the US-ROK alliance has also been some new conditions for the early recovery of his South Korean military command, and the Korea-US relations and relations between South Korea and there have been calls to treat equidistant. The United States in the two original pillars of the Asia-Pacific region, are faced with a tendency to weaken, so the American Comparative worry, that threaten U.S. hegemony in the Asia-Pacific regional stability, but also threaten U.S. leadership in the Asia Pacific region, the United States would like to change this situation through the exercise.
Second, the U.S. high-profile claim to "return to Asia", "Asian leaders" step up a strategic containment of China. Frequent the waters surrounding the United States show strength in China, the implementation of "gunboat policy", also called "carrier blackmail." And the exercise, a series of military operations of his part, is not isolated. The last time Hanmei Jun speech, he called to observe Japan, Korea, the United States and Japan called again to observe the exercise. In fact, he would like in the Asia Pacific region connecting the two military alliances, to form a complete containment net.
Third, the exercise is in the United States financial crisis, social crisis, a crisis of confidence at the same time concurrent, the United States trying to pass out in times of crisis. The United States more and more to show his "domestic and foreign technology, foreign militarization" tendencies. (People)
Recently, the well-known military expert, Major General Peng Guangqian guest People's Daily, to the US-Japan joint military exercises as well as the security situation in Northeast Asia and other military hotspots and users to communicate online.
Deterioration of the regional security environment chain exercises
Major General Peng Guangqian said that history is often made the cover of military exercises launched by the precedent of the war, the United States and Japan's provocative joint military exercises clearly worsened the security environment in Northeast Asia, increasing the risk of war. If we do not control, does not guard against them, or thinking of paralysis, it is likely the war in our "sleeping" under the place. If we are vigilant, resolute opposition, carefully prepared, the war might have been stopped.
Peng general view, from the current situation, the US-Japan joint military exercises both the meaning of military provocation, but also the composition of bluff. US-Japan military conflict did not realize strategic objectives of certainty, or that they do not yet fully provoke a war with impunity grasp. Once the cause of military conflict, the entire region into the war, Japan must be a major catastrophe, the United States is difficult to get out. As long as the international community to work together to avoid escalation of the crisis is possible.
Major General Peng Guangqian said that stability in East Asia, all countries in East Asia as a basis for peaceful development, China can not develop without a stable peace in the external environment, external forces to undermine the peaceful development of our strategic opportunities, military blackmail, it is difficult stay out. (People)
The purpose of the United States -
Passed the crisis to contain China, to strengthen the Asia-Pacific military alliance
To users care about the "US-Japan joint military exercises the strategic objectives of" problem, Major General Peng Guangqian said the United States joint military exercises in the United States and Japan has three main purposes:
First, strengthen the alliance system and consolidate U.S. hegemony, to strengthen its military presence in the Asia Pacific region.
Second, we must contain China's development through this, at least to delay China's development, delaying the process of weakening of U.S. hegemony.
Third, the shift in the United States contradictions, to shift domestic crisis.
Japan's intention -
The introduction of use of U.S. forces to achieve their strategic goal
General Peng Guangqian said that the other party participating in the exercise - Japan is not completely passive, but also have their own plans. US-Japan relationship is very complex, both the use and the United States against Japan, while Japan only hope that in the United States under the wings and expanding, and want to get rid of U.S. control. In recent years, the Japanese economy gradually in the development of a certain strength, but also in the past half a century of World War II, but Japan's growing economic power to go from a major political and military power.
Peng General believes that Japan currently has "four abandoned," "Four seek." The so-called "four abandoned," the first abandon Japan's "constitutional" constraints of Article IX; Second, abandoning three non-nuclear principles; third, the three principles of arms exports abandoned; Fourth, discard the original exclusively defensive strategy to implement the so-called "dynamic containment" policy to strengthen the military offensive and extraversion. The so-called "four seek": First, to seek the right to send troops overseas; Second, the right to seek foreign wars; third is to seek the right to collective operations; Fourth, the right to seek actual possession of nuclear weapons.
The use of U.S. involvement in the Western Pacific, Japan, the opportunity to further the introduction of U.S. forces under the aegis of the United States to achieve their strategic goals. Of particular concern is that the Japanese gradually in recent years the target of the military strategy of China, China's military threat to public rendering. Japan, the main strategic direction to the northwest from the original, and gradually turned to the southwest based.
South Korea's Sadness -
Policy toward the DPRK to "canons", Han Guocheng biggest "losers"
Since 2010, U.S. and South Korea within six months of continuous exercise 5 times, Japan and the U.S. proceeded with the two largest military exercise in history, and strengthen the US-ROK military alliance with the US-Japan military alliance, and thus indirectly strengthen the United States, Japan Triangle military relations. South Korea has changed over the last day of the sanctions-based containment of North Korea's "big stick" policy, began a military exercise-based "guns" policy.
The artillery is worthy of study after the national response. The attitude of the United States can use the "Washington Post" editorial summed up the 24th, that is, "to contain North Korea, American diplomacy aimed at Beijing, not Pyongyang." After the shelling, was an aircraft carrier to participate in the long-overdue program of military exercises in the Yellow Sea has once again been raised, and quickly passed. To the event, not only the success of the U.S. aircraft carrier in sensitive sea areas of China, and South Korea also have to be more dependent on the US-ROK military alliance, strengthened against the U.S. influence in Northeast Asia.
Correspondingly, South Korea or will become the biggest "losers." Abandoned the policy in the sun under the guidance of Lee Myung-bak government, deteriorating inter-Korean relations, such as the Mount Kumgang shooting incident Cheonan, shelling, military demarcation line frequency of misfires and other serious incidents, personnel and property suffered a great loss, and blindly asked China to pressure North Korea also subtly undermined China-ROK relations. Finally, ways of resolving the Korean Peninsula and the space more and more narrow, only a road following the United States, but to take strategic patience to deal with, have to say this is the failure of South Korean policy toward North Korea....
