THE TIMING THAT J-20 APPEARED REFLECTS CHINA’S NEW DETERRENCE STRATEGY

According to the U.S. "New York Times" reported on January 6, U.S. Defense Secretary Robert – Gates's visit to China's task is to repair the two countries and China military relations between the severely impaired. Sunday, Gates will arrive in Beijing with China's top military leaders were meeting. However, the military airport in Chengdu, China, the PLA began to rise already expressed his intention of welcome. "The New York Times" quoted the editor of Defense Review of Chinese speech, said Andrei Chang, J -20 opportunity to appear in this "is the manifestation of China's new policy of deterrence."

J -20, China's first stealth fighters on both sides of the body is inclined along the twin vertical tails, wing and fuselage smooth transition, the front fuselage surrounded by sharp edges, the surface of the body than the F-tilt angle 35 is also big, no border integral with the F-22 cockpit similar. After years of secret development, China's first stealth fighters seem to have completed the construction of the prototype, and open air design institute in Chengdu on the runway to taxi testing. As announced in advance on a site J -20 test information, the aircraft attracted many fans gathered at this military airport, trying to take photos of the related scenes. Analysts pointed out that the public at this time is no coincidence that the F -20. Canada "kanwa Defense Review" magazine editor Andrei Chang in a telephone interview Wednesday, said: "This is a manifestation of China's new policy of deterrence, they want to Gates and the U.S. demonstrate its powerful military strength."

These days, a lot about reports of China's military modernization has fully demonstrated its powerful military. Once in the old, known behind the Chinese army, after ten years, after vigorously promote the modernization has been bearing fruit. Both the Pentagon, or China's Asian neighbors, are increasingly concerned about China's military building. Most people think that China and the United States military technology is still a big gap, especially with the United States Navy and the Air Force in the wealth of combat experience and combat capability, the Chinese also appears to be very backward. But can not deny that China has constantly strengthened the armed forces, enhance its military strength has been revealed beyond doubt the strategic intent; and in the near future, China will have in the Pacific to challenge U.S. military power.

F -20 fighter is designed to have air refueling capability to carry large missiles, as well as outside in the fighting along the Chinese border. In addition, there are reports that China is on the former Soviet Union, "Varyag" aircraft carrier be modified, which is China's first aircraft carrier, and will be completed next year, the official deployment. Meanwhile, the other two 5-ton aircraft carrier is also manufactured in Shanghai shipyard construction; the first one will be put into use in 2014. Pentagon experts said in 2020, the Chinese navy will have five aircraft carriers.

Reported, experts estimate that China's People's Liberation Army has no more than 160 nuclear warheads; and since 2008, these bombs have been deployed in advanced mobile launchers and submarines, so its difficult to attack very large. Next, multiple warhead missiles will further promote the open. Currently, China has 60 submarines, has become Asia's largest submarine fleet; After transformation of these submarines, equipped with ultra-quiet nuclear power system, and load the second generation of ballistic missiles.

It is generally predicted that China will deploy anti-ship ballistic missiles, also known as "aircraft carrier killer"; it can to combat the core of U.S. Navy forces in the Pacific region. The U.S. Pacific Command, Admiral Robert – Willard told in December in Japan, "Asahi Shimbun," said China has reached an important indicator of anti-ship missile, with "initial operational capability." Thereafter, U.S. Navy officials to amend its statement that the Chinese design of the ballistic missile test has been completed, but not the actual test surface.

Weapons and equipment through a series of public, China sent out to the outside world a clear message: that China is capable defense force other military intervention in its territory. Of course, China has its own reason for military construction. The main purpose is, through a similar aircraft carrier, anti-ship missiles and stealth fighter these offensive weapons that their positions. Chinese officials made it clear that that the U.S. military and its allies plan to surround and contain China. From this perspective, the Pentagon's long-term strategy is to establish and China in Central Asia adjacent to Korea, Japan and other countries to establish partnerships. Renmin University of China, Russia and Central Asia expert and government adviser, said Xu Qin-Hua: "Some Chinese scholars have expressed concern that the U.S. will be done this way, the encirclement of China. We should worry about, it is natural . "

U.S. officials have long been the attitude that welcomes more powerful Chinese military cooperation with the United States to ensure the smooth flow of sea lanes; to combat piracy, and undertake corresponding international obligations. However, Chinese military leaders and U.S. military strategy is not the so-called long-term concern, they are more worried about the U.S. military plans to surround China, so China has been committed to building a more stable attack power, and is now far beyond the the scope of China's territory.

Gates, a China expert before the Office of Abraham – Dan Make tells us: "When we speak of a threat, which is a comprehensive concept of capabilities and intentions. As becomes increasingly clear, while China has become increasingly aware of their The goal, which is to limit U.S. military power into the western Pacific. However, we do not know is their intent. "He added:" China's military modernization is to recognize their rights, but the problem is that military force will is how to use. "currently in charge of the Washington Center for a New American Security's Dan Make the Asia-Pacific security plan also noted that China and Japan in the near future and the neighboring countries in Southeast Asia the issue of territorial disputes, China's reactions are very strong; This is also caused The Pentagon and the Chinese neighbors concerns. Nevertheless, a Navy senior intelligence official told reporters in Washington Wednesday, the United States should not overestimate China's military strength, China has not yet proficient and systematic use of different weapons systems into combat. In addition, the U.S. Navy, Deputy Chief of Staff David – Imperial also said that although some of the weapons made in China than the U.S. rate expectations, but did not need to worry about this. He said: "You see them deploy a large number of naval forces it? No! They have large-scale joint and sophisticated combat experience? No! We see them have a strong operational capabilities? Have not." Imperial Admiral said that although China is planning this year, "second-hand, very old," the former Soviet Union aircraft carrier to sea trials, and revealed the intention of self-developed aircraft carrier, but they are carrier-based aircraft and large-scale naval battle in the still limited capacity . The Pentagon in 2009, China's military strategy evaluation report noted that although the U.S. government's "unremitting efforts" research, but still can not measure China's military spending. Obviously, we know little about China's military intentions, and even the lack of such experts in China's source of information.

On Wednesday, Chinese military experts, Center for Strategic and International Studies, Peking University Zhu Feng, deputy director, said in an interview he believes that the requirements of the rapid development of advanced weapons to some slightly exaggerated. He said: "What is the real situation? I am sure will be very suspicious. I see a lot of sophisticated weapons purchases on the relevant reports, but behind it is that I discovered that in fact we wasted a lot of money – a lot of expansion, many exaggerated. "

Washington Center for Strategic and International Studies scholar on China Bonnie – Glaser said in a telephone interview: "Ultimately, the question from the U.S. point of view, it comes down to whether the U.S. can continue as before, the Western Pacific control. Of course, China would prefer to complicate the issue. And it is entirely reasonable for China itself, but for the United States is not acceptable. "
