U.S. Fleet, a great hero to safeguard China's maritime lifeline?

China military: Japanese columnist Kato Yoshikazu 11 in British Financial Times raised the question: "For decades, who is the great hero that has safeguarded China's maritime lifeline safety and escorted for Reform and opening up?" But his answer China allows a lot of people accidentally. Yoshikazu Kato said that the hero is the "core of the U.S. Navy Seventh Fleet."

U.S. Seventh Fleet

 Kato Yoshikazu article said that although many young Chinese people has become the object of hate, but it is all over the world Zhezhi Navy quietly patrol the ocean and the Channel, against all threats to cut off the route for the armed men to ensure that the resources into China goods out of China's security. If the U.S. fleet was suddenly eliminated or withdraw the country, China will be unable to pirates, terrorists, or Saddam Hussein in front of the new route to defend their security and economic security.

The Chinese navy military researcher Li Jie different views. He said that, in fact, even without the U.S. Navy forces in Northeast Asia, Japan and South Korea by sea and air forces and the Coast Guard, defending the safety of sea lanes, combating piracy and maritime terrorism is no problem. In Southeast Asia, if countries can reach an agreement by countries to protect the security cooperation is not a problem.

 Rear Admiral Yang Yi, the Chinese expressed concern that the United States often claim to be "public safety products" and "provider", but in fact often is "troublemaker." Contrast the U.S. high-profile announcement to "return" before and after the East Asian atmosphere can be seen. Bloomberg columnist William • Pi Xike 11, advised the United States said in the past to fight the Cold War with the Soviet Union, and now any connection with the competition in Beijing's soft power. If the United States to "return" to Asia, you must put the past arrogance at the door throw away, really engage in cooperation.

China needs at least three aircraft carriers

July 27, Ministry of National Defense announced that China "is using a waste carrier platform for transformation, for research and training." Yesterday, the executive director of China Society of Military Science and Deputy Secretary-General, Major General Luo said China is considering an internal naming of the aircraft carrier, will give you satisfactory answers. He believes that to effectively safeguard China's maritime rights and interests, the number of aircraft at least not less than three. Purposes, crew training aircraft pilots

China is transforming the waste Varyag aircraft carrier pilot training is the ship, said Luo Yuan, pilot training ship and combat ships have a significant difference, not the same as its mandate and mission, is mainly responsible for training ship-based aircraft carrier pilot and crew training task. So much unnecessary equipment, shipboard weapons and equipment, in particular, is the training of ship fuel, fuel, ammunition to be much less than the combat ships, in order to avoid training in the event of an accident, causing unnecessary losses.

Luo believes that Varyag allows us to lower prices and better cost-effective to obtain the advantage. Although it is not the most advanced, but better than nothing, from zero to one, both the amount of change, but also qualitative change. The advantage is that you can put the most advanced technology into our aircraft up. Although the carrier is a product of the era of mechanization, but as long as we embed information elements, is still winning the information war in the vanguard weapon.

According to reports, the training ship is now conventionally powered aircraft carrier. As for the future will not have nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, but also in accordance with prevailing national defense needs and economic strength and technological level may be. From the present point of view, nuclear aircraft carrier is a development trend, we now use the Varyag as a test ship, but also in testing the waters, feeling the stones, as we lay the foundation for future aircraft carriers, and explore the road.

Number, in theory at least 3

China, while several of the number of aircraft should be appropriate? Luo pointed out that the theoretical terms, generally three to form an effective combat aircraft, including a duty, a train, one in the dock repairs. From the perspective of China's neighboring countries, India in 2014 will have three aircraft carriers; Japan in 2014 and there will be three "quasi carriers." "I think we should be able to effectively protect our marine rights and interests, at least not lower." China and the United States there is no need to go, "Gao is high, high specific strength", or according to our own defense needs, according to " reasonable and sufficient "principle, with a certain number of aircraft can be.

Aircraft carrier construction requires a lot of money, said Luo Yuan, we have developed based on aircraft carriers, the first is based on defense needs, and secondly to take into account the affordability of the national economy, but also take into account our scientific and technological level. However, the carrier is not just a simple "swallowing gold beast", it will bring about the necessary economic, stimulating the development of high-tech industry chain. "We look at defense spending, not just looking into this part, but also depends on its output, its output is to give us security, which is the exchange of money does not come."

In addition to carrier-based aircraft carrier battle group, but also need to destroyers, frigates, submarines, escort. Luo said that in this regard, we are forward-looking consideration, is the first with the destroyers, frigates and submarines, another aircraft carrier, can be said that everything is ready, only a strong wind. With the aircraft carrier, we go through a period of running, it will form a combat aircraft carrier battle group. However, this is the future, not the present tense.

Policy, foreign policy is not the same troops

According to media reports, the Department of Defense released the news about China's aircraft carrier, Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary said Yukio wild branches, expects China to further enhance military transparency. Luo said this, China has been very transparent, and if the total wearing "colored glasses" to see China, and then clear you will not believe the threat is not just a psychological feeling threatened, the Chinese have a saying called "do good conscience, not afraid of spirit shook the door. " "If you do not do things a disgrace to China, even China has been used in combat aircraft, you do not have to worry about."

If the Chinese Navy aircraft carrier fleet ocean voyage, perform tasks, how to solve the supply problem? Luo said that China even with the aircraft carrier, with the ability to offshore operations, but the naval coastal defense strategy will not change. We do not fight global hegemony, not like the United States' global reach "," forward deployment. " We develop their own navy, mainly to housekeeping escort. If we perform overseas missions, but also the requirements of the United Nations and the countries of the request away. Therefore, they should provide us with the necessary supplies from overseas, our troops overseas, the policy will not change.

Excusing "freedom of navigation", The U.S. attempts to control the South China Sea to lock Chinese Navy

Let's talk about the topics of freedom of navigation and the island chain. Most recently. Recently, the South China Sea situation evolves, causing the parties attach great importance. June 28, the U.S. Navy and the Philippines Navy in the South China Sea held a large-scale military exercises. We can say that the situation in the South China Sea this exercise a higher and more heat into the state.

Chung-Hoo DDG93 arrived Puerto Princesa, Philippines for US and Philippines Sea Joint readiness training exercises

If we look back on can be found, the U.S. has been trying to actively interfere in this issue. South China Sea and the United States had no significant relationship. Purely from a geographical point of view, the South China Sea can be described as thousands of kilometers away from the United States. Why the United States will actively interfere in this issue? With the Americans own words: evolution of the situation and development of the South China Sea, the United States in this area impede freedom of navigation, related to U.S. national interests. If you want the U.S. to respond to this argument or excuse for it. I think that is very simple, that is the situation in the South China Sea, and did not affect the normal operation of international waters.


On this conclusion, we have two excellent reasons. First, very few except the United States and other countries, there is no situation in which countries for the development of the South China Sea, affecting the freedom of navigation in international waters. Even in those countries surrounding the South China Sea, or some European countries, but also do not believe that the evolution of the situation in the South China Sea, affecting their freedom of navigation in this area.


Second, the South China Sea International Shanghai in fact one of the regions busiest transportation. The production of the South China Sea can be described as a long time. In such a long time, the South China Sea ups and downs, twists and turns frequently, but did not affect the normal sailing in international waters.

Chinese Navy submarine through Okinawa - Miyako Strait

Therefore, since there is no impact to the so-called "freedom of navigation," this issue. That why the United States have to actively intervene in the South China Sea issue? Not only do we have to ask: to what extent the development in the end, be regarded as affecting the freedom of navigation. Can you give a concrete example of it? Let us enlarge the view, looked to the north, the view is into the face of mainland China East China Sea.


Not long ago, the area had such a thing happened. Chinese naval fleet, the first island chain by Miyako Strait, into the western Pacific at the normal annual training activities. This action, in some countries which raised a storm. Some countries in the Chinese Navy ships through the Strait of Miyako process, sent a reconnaissance aircraft, tracking, also photographs, videos published. Even senior officials in these countries also claim: China as a responsible big country, during these exercises, they should show restraint, restraint.

In fact, this is the impact of "free navigation" a typical example. Chinese Navy through the Miyako Strait is an international waterway. In fact the Chinese Navy has the right to freedom of navigation. When we are a legitimate exercise of freedom of navigation rights, but some irresponsible remarks, and all of us to obstruct the navigation of the move. This is in fact affected the freedom of navigation at sea in China. If we compared the East China Sea and South China Sea, then you will find the South China Sea navigation is free, smooth; the East China Sea island chain of the first international waterway, the current Chinese navy has developed a "impede freedom of navigation" in situation.


Spoke of "freedom of navigation" is the word, we need to look at the United States and China for the understanding of the term What is the difference.


Rights of passage in international waters in the basic norms of international law. These rules ensure the normal operation of international shipping, to ensure that countries in the world for the common use of international waters. But in fact, the specific expression of different countries has a difference in the nature. International law "right to freedom of navigation", it is not exclusive, we shared a right. The United States put forward in the South China Sea, the so-called "freedom of navigation" is "exclusive" state.


Talked about freedom of navigation, we might look back more distant times. In China's semi-feudal era, Western powers have an agreement that is in China's inland waterways (such as the Yangtze) have a free right of passage. In fact, the United States is now in the South China Sea claimed "freedom of navigation", and had the Western powers in China's inland waterways have a "free right of passage" similar to.


Traditional Western sea theory, is to ensure one's own freedom to use the waters, and obstruct the other free to use the area. If you reach this level, then it means that you have the control or command of the sea waters. We compare, you will find the United States proposed that "freedom of navigation", in fact, the substitution of the concept, and do not reflect international law, "freedom of navigation", but reflects the Western tradition of sea waters in the theory of "control."

For China, to the present level of economic development, more dependent on international waters, this "freedom of navigation" principle. In fact, China's right of navigation in international waters by the restrictions. For example, in the face of the first island chain in mainland China, the United States and some of the country's military deployment and operations in China are affecting the right to freedom of navigation in international waters. And this situation is also being further intensified. The original United States in the Western Pacific, mainly in the large military presence in central and northern part of the first island chain, and now the United States to actively intervene in the South China Sea through the affairs of the southern end of the first island chain is still a military deployment.


Not long ago, the Philippine Foreign Minister visited the United States, the United States has repeatedly stressed that a thing is the "Philippine-US joint defense treaty." Vietnam War, the United States was forced to withdraw from Southeast Asia. Two U.S. military bases in the Philippines that year, Clark and Subic bases bases are lost. Now revert to the United States, "Philippine-US joint defense treaty," and the name for the allies to protect the name began to discuss the issue back to Clark and Subic. This move is actually the first island chain in strengthening the central and northern military deployment at the same time, gradually strengthen the military power to the southern end of the first island chain. In other words, the first island chain in the United States trying to build a complete military deployment. This military deployment, can not but cast doubt on China's national interests such as freedom of navigation effects.


China to today, freedom of navigation at sea is our strategy can not be ignored. Therefore, the first island chain and the freedom of navigation should be quite a long time we will attach great importance to the issue.

Japanese media encouraged the government to join Southeast Asian countries to maintain vigilance on China

China Military: 10, Japan's defense ministry by the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force's initial public shooting by Chinese naval vessels to Okinawa - the high seas waterways Miyako screen.

The report said Kitazawa stressed that China should exercise restraint. "As a big country, China's naval exercises should be in moderation."

Although the Chinese Ministry of Defense has made clear that this is the Chinese Navy's routine annual training plan in line with the relevant norms of international law, not targeted at any specific country and objectives. However, the Japanese government and China's every move up and down still very "tight" right-wing is trumpeted the "China threat." In addition, the U.S. Navy has also dynamic in China is very tense. Japan, "Asahi Shimbun," 10 said, was appointed secretary of defense under the United States, the United States CIA Director Panetta 9 at the U.S. Senate hearing, said, "China's military is to prevent U.S. military intervention to enhance the ability of Taiwan Affairs," said "the Chinese armed forces should continue to closely monitor the movement." There are Japanese media said the United States Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Daniel Inouye recently in Tokyo, members of "Japan-US relations" in the title of the speech, accused China of building aircraft carriers, submarines, and other increases, warning that "China is testing our system," .

"Sankei Shimbun" that the Japanese need to take seriously the U.S. government and the information from Congress. Also, look for territory with China on the South China Sea in Vietnam, the Philippines and other countries of the trends. Japan to the Japan-US alliance as the axis, the United States encountered the same problem in Southeast Asia, will China into "for maritime security" discussions between the multinational, which requires strong diplomatic force. The newspaper suggested that Indonesia's President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono will visit Japan today. In addition, the Japan-US diplomatic, defense head Security Consultative Committee consisting of "2 +2" meeting will be held later this month, hoping not to waste the establishment of a new strategy toward China's diplomatic opportunities. For the Japanese authorities and media performance, World Wide Web 10 survey, more than Jiucheng User that Japan's "overreaction."

On the other hand, a major earthquake in Japan, which were silent, "Gordon Diaoyu Islands Plan" is making a comeback. According to Kyodo News 10 reported that mayor Ohama Nagateru of Ishigaki City in Okinawa Prefecture Elan day visit Japan Coast Guard, Ministry of Agriculture and other departments, and the Coast Guard to the Executive of the Democratic Party and other parties concerned to apply the Diaoyu Islands, called for the island memory of the victims was held at the end of World War II ships of the ceremony.  Ohama Nagateru also asked the Japan Coast Guard stepped up security to ensure the safety of fishermen around the Diaoyu Islands. Ohama Nagateru is referred to the victims of the incident in July 1945, two refugee boat from Ishigaki Island Japan, Taiwan, was bound for the U.S. military air strikes, heavy casualties.

Definitely a conspiracy: the United States selects the naval base for China

Recently, the United States,Jamestown Foundation, the famous American think tank in its official presentation in "Good" as the Chinese have chosen six is said to be the most ideal naval base.

Article that the Chinese navy in the Gulf of Aden as the implementation of the naval escort mission, China needs to establish the right in the Indian Ocean maritime supply point, to escort ships to the necessary support to maintain the security of maritime commerce channel. Oman Celera from Hong Kong to the Gulf of Aden, from Singapore to Karachi, in fact, that is, a few years ago been speculation China's "sea pearl chain" simply refurbished versions constantly.


Well, Americans gave us such a long list out the list, so the appropriate geographic advantage really can naval base our choice of option? The answer is no.


First, a country's choice of overseas military bases, not a mere geographical location, it should be by a national strategic intent and strategic forces and bases in the host country's overall national strength, foreign policy, choice of interests to be. So, we must first be clear about our strategic forces and intent?


Remember, our country's navy rushed to the Gulf of Aden a place far away, can not be just to deal with that small band of black uncle thief. In this way we improve our rotation, ocean-going naval combat force, the sea is the main artery of this world to achieve our military presence, is prepared when necessary to cut off our enemies and potential adversaries of the energy vessels.


See here, we should understand why did India, Japan, South Korea to see our Navy ships in the Indian Ocean when the frantic of the reason.


From the present and for a long period of time, we do large scale ocean-going navy in accelerating the transition, I believe that in the last 2 - 3 years of our carrier battle groups into the military can.


However, one can not dispute the fact is that our naval forces will continue to lag behind the U.S., even if we are equipped with four or more aircraft carrier battle group. And this not only limited to the equipment behind the quantity and quality.

We use tactics and fighting quality has had an enormous gap. Therefore, the future maritime conflicts will inevitably fall into our disadvantage, and this is the choice we made naval base in high demand.

War, Oman and Yemen Gulf of Aden port Celera is very difficult to become a supply point. Djibouti is impossible, the United States, France, Japan and other countries of the army estimates in the first time can tanks rolled into our base barracks.


Singapore too far away, especially in shaping the country swing, China has a very strong guard. We never expect our common ancestry with the text of Chinese people in this country can take the moral.


As for Colombo, Sri Lanka seemed to take it a good choice, unfortunately it is too close from India to Asan belly chicken intestine, they certainly are not backing down. We have little warning time.

Only left the port of Karachi in Pakistan. Karachi is the most familiar to the Chinese Navy's military port, especially with Pakistan F-22P frigates from China's introduction of our ships for nearly two days ago, Karachi was a serious of violent conflict, at least 65 people died in the conflict.


Karachi is the most important Banan Department but also one of the most volatile region in which al-Qaeda, the opposition political forces and other deep-rooted. The hasty intervention would lead to our urgent need to deterioration of the situation, continue to occur in the Chinese workers were kidnapped and assaulted is proof. In contrast, Gwadar advantages far more than Karachi.


We need to face only one opponent, the United States. All our choices are based on the basis of a strong opponent. We can hardly imagine that we can re-open sea on the aircraft carrier U.S. aircraft carrier launched with a duel between master and win.


We only rely on a reliable base of relying, in our geographic area can be delineated within the field of choice. This is a cruel fact, but almost is our only choice. Unless in the future because of the war across the Taiwan Strait, we can delay the US-Japan reinforcements to those firms and sacrifice of our aircraft carriers, or any person not to act hastily to terminate our right to dream of the sea.

If the matter does not occur, there may no war with China and the U.S. in the South China Sea

South China Sea issue, since China's position as China's core interests, the United States in the ASEAN forum have also done a dark edge exposed position, together with several ASEAN countries echoed off a controversy, so far finding banks.


China's economic rise, the politically have more say in global affairs, the military also have a faster and greater development than in the past. in the seven claims of Foreign Minister Yang Jiechif, the description on the normal economic exchanges of China and South China Sea all the countries is a fact, but China ignored that the Chinese navy in the military, especially the development of military issues, and the South China Sea countries have not reached a military mutual trust, of course, can reach is another question. South China Sea countries have rapid development of China's military power uneasy, which gave the United States to return to Asia, a good appearance opportunities, there is the ASEAN forum That sort of a small storm.


For the United States, Asia, the global interests of the United States has important strategic significance, the balance of power in Asia because of China's rise has been broken, the United States do not want to see.

But the Asian Ye Hao, Southeast Asia, Ye Hao, has been divided does not exist a simple camp boundaries, different countries in Asia to different threats have different feelings. The strength of the United States to Asian countries realize that the opposite side stood the United States will certainly not good, but in China has become the reality of economic power, and not to the advantage against China.


Do not forget, many Southeast Asian countries still believe that their non-aligned policy is a contribution to world peace. Therefore, unless there is also a threat to the interests of China's large-scale move, Southeast Asian countries will not simply stand in line and then form an alliance.


For China, South China's core interests, sovereignty is bound to uphold, but the timing and strategy is important. If, as some people say it, learned this lesson that, in the United States has already announced high-profile return to the case of Asia, only the South China Sea countries have all pushed aside, the Chinese completely useless.


China should use the ancient wisdom, in the development of sea power at the same time, vertical and horizontal alliances, without splitting, and the South China Sea, the parties to find their starting point, strive to maintain a dynamic balance, waiting for the right time to solve the problem.


Some people say there must be a South China Sea, Sino-US war, in fact, the national interests of the United States claimed the right of navigation in the South China Sea, Sino-US interests in the South China Sea is a collision, and no sovereignty dispute, the sovereignty dispute over the national interest than in the U.S. mutual orientation Today has been a significant change, competition and cooperation will soon be full of contradiction and coordination, cooperation is the mainstream of the case, even if there is a conflict, it will not happen so fierce outbreak of war confrontation. To be sure, the United States will not be used by other countries.

Historically, the rise of emerging powers and the existing collision between the interests of hegemonic power, may not have decided the outcome of war, Anglo-American relations is an example. Anglo-American relations Sino-US relations and of course there are many different, but it is undeniable that the current China and the common interests between the United States is more than ever, the two tied and dependent on economic relations, so that even if the two countries have a strategic impact of conflict, both sides will soon be adjusted, before and after the change in location Multimodal speech and the two military tone of the cooling is also an example.


The United States will not have a future war, the vagaries of the world in terms of now, no one is difficult to predict. 20 years ago, who would think of the rapid rise of China will return two years ago, who knows the economic crisis the world has such a big hit, and the world to re-shuffle. With so much uncertainty in terms of, 10 years later 20 years development of the world probably is not that people are now able to predict.


China and the U.S. are from the wisdom of a large country, although all of the strategic objectives of each, each with the national interests of all, the hard-line hawks on both sides Sheng Yin, both sides have claims strongly the voices of moderates, Zao Cheng Guan Xi Shang-US inevitable ups and downs, new controversies arise, the South China Sea is just the latest in a contentious point.


However, for now, on the United States is, after all, there is a general principle and direction that both parties feel that their interests have extensive and significant differences between the great power, stability and sustainable development of bilateral relations is the basic line their own strategic interests and practical interests.


Therefore, the United States despite the dispute over sea power, but as long as no major reversal of U.S. South China Sea would not have "a war" theory. (From China Military Report )

Shame the Chinese: A Vietnamese military officer revealed ambition in his blog

Recently, a post worth considering, this post is from a Vietnam Navy officer's blog. Bowen said that China is very advanced very powerful warships, fighters advanced than Vietnam, but these can only make the Chinese people psychologically satisfied, in fact, no useful.


Compared with the Chinese Navy, the Navy in Vietnam very much, only a few a few missile boats and frigates, warships can not be called composition, and only have to contend with China's SU-27 fighter support, so the U.S. Navy said they were "the most backward in Southeast Asia The. " But the Vietnamese soldiers went on to went on to say: It Together, this missile boats and frigates, warships can not be called the composition of the most backward of the Navy in Southeast Asia, but in control of the South China Sea 24 islands, and security of their control of the South China large sea oil and gas resources in Vietnam in the 80's on a lot of exploitation of the South China Sea oil and gas resources in the occupied islands, it is in such naval escort for completion.

South China Sea oil and gas resources in the occupied islands, a steady stream of transport back to the mainland, so that in 80 years ago was a net importer of oil and gas in Vietnam became one of the world's oil and gas exporting countries, China is now a large number of annual oil imports from Vietnam Gas! The Vietnamese military also said that although we compare the Chinese Navy, but Navy our country attaches great importance to the building of the Navy development top priority. Our large-scale military exercises held each year, every year at the three armed services in the North Bay comprehensive exercise several times each year, held in the South China Sea islands occupied comprehensive navy and air force exercises. Vietnamese leaders and the government is now explicitly requires us to: to ensure that the North Bay and South China Sea islands occupied the safety and "prosperity", to ensure that these areas and waters in the event of "insecurity incidents" and "territorial dispute" when the attack quickly eliminated enemy.

Moreover, the Vietnamese military also said that the Vietnamese Navy, is currently seeking to purchase from Russia and India, the new naval equipment, and thus to achieve the quality leap in the Navy in Vietnam. Finally the Vietnamese soldiers shouting: We will tell every Chinese, in the North Bay and South China Sea occupied islands 上, every day is a continuous development of the "Vietnam Navy" Patrol Ji alert, 让 Chinese do not dare to jump one step forward!

After reading Sven, grasses and sealing hui died of septicemia, although the text has traces of boasting, but most of the basic truth. Indeed, far more powerful Chinese navy in Vietnam, but Vietnamese control of the South China Sea islands, the largest, not only that also have non-stop exploitation of oil and gas resources, thus making the Vietnamese oil and gas importer from the leap to exporting countries, and even some oil and gas are also exported to mainland China. Vietnamese so arrogant with what? Is Zhezhi dilapidated Vietnamese Navy, this navy though backward, but can be rushed to the front line to Vietnam exploiting the boundary. Our navy? Control of the South China Sea islands, not only pathetic, but also watched much of the surrounding small Navy rushed to occupy our island.

Moreover, nothing was done about the Chinese navy in the East China Sea, a tightly controlled the Diaoyu Islands on the hands of the Japanese navy, the Chinese navy is stunned by even the edges are not up. China's navy weak it? No, we are very strong. Currently, the total number of 300 000 Chinese Navy, including naval air 25000, coastal defense forces 25 000, Marine Corps 40,000; we have to make super powers are formidable submarine force, with 25 destroyers, 47 frigates vessels, large landing ship 18; addition to our missiles, torpedoes, anti-submarine helicopter and ship-based helicopters are also very good, aircraft carriers, also allegedly construction. Despite the large gap between the United States, but the gap is small compared with Japan, and Southeast Asia with our fundamental differences on several orders of magnitude. Especially Vietnam, the nearest but also a good brother socialist countries in Southeast Asia known as the worst of its naval power, occupy most of the South China Sea island of China.

When asked why at this time to stir up Vietnam in the South China Sea dispute, Phoenix Qiu Zhenhai military observation room commentators said: "Vietnam is attempting to deepen its South China Sea, the influence of the parties in order to enhance the parties in the South China Sea The actual position of the ASEAN countries on the South China Sea to the problem caused by a common concern to ASEAN or the South China Sea, the power of the parties together against China in order to achieve the further erosion of its purpose and the occupation of the South China Sea. "

According to reports, nine Vietnamese, Vietnam vigorously promote marine development strategy in an attempt to keep the Navy as the pioneer expansion to the ocean, to become the 21st century, ASEAN and the world maritime power. As Vietnam's unique strategic position at sea, another in the Nansha area there are territorial disputes with China, therefore, particularly its naval development trends of concern.

Recently, it was reported that Russia's ties News, Vietnam, the Navy is building 30 to 40 400 tons of warships, and plans to invest 3.8 billion U.S. dollars, in northeastern Vietnam build a major naval port area of 3,000 hectares. It is estimated that the military port, once completed, will be able to stop 40,000 tons-class ships, not only can ease the Vietnamese warships docked in the plight of the Southern Cam Ranh Bay base, but also greatly enhance the Navy's infrastructure construction in Vietnam, Vietnamese troops combat support capabilities to a new level. While also replacing a number of far Cheng Duihai warning radar, to strengthen the monitoring efforts of the South China Sea.

Vietnamese military official said: "Since 2005, purchased from Russia 11 SU -27 fighter, the Vietnamese Navy's air combat capability greatly enhanced, while the purchase of Su-30MK, m-28H, card -31 and -39, and other advanced fighter Su The plan, also implemented in an orderly manner with. Vietnam plans to build a modern navy 2015. then, the Vietnamese Navy's ocean escort capability and combat capability at sea, to modernize the Navy's requirements. "

According to the Singapore media said: "At present the Vietnamese troops still Russian naval surface ship missile boats, except the purchase of four Russian-made 'poison spider' class missile boats, the use of Russian technology in the domestic construction of six missile BP50 boats and KBO2000 missile frigates and entered active duty, the water has been a qualitative leap in combat capability; the original capacity of the Vietnamese Navy's underwater warfare poor, but since the purchase of two pocket-sized Korean submarine, the submarine combat has taken initial shape. At present, Vietnam is preparing to set up submarine force, and plans to buy Russian Kilo-class diesel-electric submarines. " (From: China Military Report )

Only one admiral, how strong the Chinese navy would?

As the United States, Japan openly intervene, East China Sea, South China Sea situation was underway. PLA Navy Fleet at the end of the three major joint exercises in the South China Sea, more international attention. On the ships, soldiers, the strength of the PLA Navy is currently difficult for other countries around the South China Sea to compete, but not enough to rival the United States, Japan, and even among the PLA Navy to account status, more difficult, said Strong.


Navy Department general configuration vulnerable

Party commands the gun, the CCP believes in enduring purpose of the military personnel to reflect the layout of the most senior military concept of the CPC. The original all-four PLA controlled by the Army, until recent years, only the Air Force, Navy, Deputy Chief of Staff generals, deputy director of the General Political Department, shows that the CPC high-level attention to the real Air Force, Navy, the military status of the process of modernization. However, the PLA will be 30 active duty, only one admiral, the Navy can not say that the status is still a little embarrassed.

Admiral is the only active member of the Navy, who is also commander of the Central Military Commission Wu Shengli, will be granted the rank of Deputy Chief Sun Jianguo, deputy director of the General Political Department Tong Shiping, Liu Xiaojiang, political commissar of the navy, but at present, Admiral. There will be qualifications, including military service, promotion will be years, such as Chia Tai military grade years. The active duty Air Force will have the Air Force commander Xu Qiliang, political commissar Deng Changyou, Deputy Chief of General Ma Xiaotian, deputy director of the General Political Department Mr Lau, the military will be equipped with the full title. In contrast, the Navy's general configuration is now evident that in a weak period.

Built aircraft carrier problem indecisive

There are still two of the Air Force will be promoted as Admiral of the military, including President Liu Chengjun Academy of Military Sciences, National Defense University political commissar LIU Ya-zhou. Academy of Military Science is the highest directly under the Central Military Commission of the military research institutions, think tanks, National Defense University is the highest military institution dedicated to the training of senior command and staff personnel, the College (School) long, political commissar of the military staff are CP, Army and Air Force each two seats, although not on the Navy officer training development strategy and obstruct, but inevitably have an impact.

Home vulnerable in the general configuration, the construction of an aircraft carrier problem indecisive, but also emboldened the PLA Navy's lack of one of the reasons. Went to the Navy sent a combined fleet off the Somali coast to escort, but there are still robbed the Chinese cargo ship is clearly the challenge of China's naval power. In the South, East, the situation was deteriorating, the Navy will usher in general be reused, the arms were to upgrade the machine? (From: China Military Report )

PLA Major General said that Chinese Navy will not hold back because of island chain

July 26, organized by the South China Sea Fleet of the navy arms contract, the live ammunition exercise was successfully held in the South China Sea waters, photo shows 171 new 052C class guided missile destroyer. Xinhua News Agency issued

China Military Report: "China and the United States by 2015 sea battle and eventually defeat the Chinese navy the United States 'Washington' aircraft carrier." This is the U.S. Navy early this year, Lieutenant Colonel James carats of ska in the U.S. journal Foreign Affairs, "Journal of World Affairs," written in a paragraph on . Kraska's prediction, after all, only a subjective imagination, but it reveals the essence of China in recent years, the United States naval forces and growth concerns and fears. The most direct expression of this psychological, the United States during the Cold War to regain the "island chain, said" in an attempt to blockade the Chinese navy in the United States as a "courtyard" of the "first island chain" within.


The shackles of the strategy to contain China


"Island chain" is the East-West confrontation during the Cold War product. After World War II, the US-led Western countries to block the former Soviet Union, China and other socialist countries, using some of the West Pacific Ocean island group's strategic location specific, proposed the "island chains" concept. First to use the "island chain" in former U.S. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles is. January 1951, when the U.S. State Department adviser John Foster Dulles put forward: "the defense of the United States in the Pacific area should be Japan, the Ryukyu Islands, China Taiwan, the Philippines, Australia, this island chain."

After the Cold War, western countries will shift the focus of strategic containment of China, Dulles's "island chain" that has been given a new meaning, derived from the United States to contain China's development of the three ocean-going navy to the "island block chain." The so-called "first island chain" refers to the North from the Japanese archipelago, Ryukyu Islands, the island then south to the Philippines, Sunda Islands chain, a large island-shaped belt. The island chain is the United States and its military allies (Japan and Korea, etc.) to deploy the cutting edge of the west. "Second island chain" from the Japanese Islands, north through the South Island (including the Bonin Islands, sulfur Islands), Mariana Islands, the islands until Hama Black Lama group, which is the front-line U.S. and Asia-Pacific countries such as Japan and South Korea rear support. "The third island chain," the major groups formed by the base of the Hawaiian Islands, both U.S. military strategy is the support behind the Asia-Pacific, but also a United States defense outpost.


"After the Cold War, the United States constructed to contain China's island chain is not only not disappeared, but continues to lengthen, forming a sea surrounded by two levels of posture." Military expert Dai Xu in China on the "News of the World," told . Dai Xu pointed out that China, the United States now constitutes a "C-shaped surrounded by" the situation: surrounded by sea from Japan to India, the land surrounded from India to Central Asia. "Whatever is the 'first island chain' or 'C-shaped surround', are the United States in the geopolitical strategy to contain China's yoke."

China's breakthrough "island chain" to the US-Japanese horror


In recent years, with the development of China's naval forces, to pursue exclusive sea of the United States and Japan, and restore "island chain" concept, and will challenge it as the Chinese Navy's own influence in the Western Pacific, a psychological barrier. The pace of the Chinese Navy to the U.S. and Japan are also often disturbed.


This year in April, the East China Sea Fleet of Chinese navy held exercises in the East China Sea, a total of 10 warships and submarines to participate. These ships through the Strait of Miyako, arrived at the western Pacific waters near Okinotorishima, and held anti-submarine exercises in this. A few days earlier, the North Sea Fleet of the PLA just finished a small fleet exercises in the South China Sea, and from the opposite direction across the Miyako Strait.


Chinese Navy led a series of maritime exercises between Japan and the U.S. media attention. Japan's "Yomiuri Shimbun," commented: "The recent exercises that the Chinese navy is a force that can in 'the first island chain' to carry out operations outside the modern Navy." Foundation, U.S. think tank the jamestown foundation comment on the article, said the unprecedented scale of the exercise seems to claim that China has mature outside the "blue water navy."

Not only the Navy, the rapid progress of China's air force also made the U.S. feel "anxious." United States, "Foreign Affairs" magazine web site early in July there is articles said that the Chinese air force's advanced aerial refueling aircraft, if not, its combat radius can be up to 900 nautical miles, enough to cover the "first island chain."

In fact, the Chinese Navy "breakthrough" the "first island chain" capability is no longer news in the eyes of Western countries, they are now more concerned about the Chinese navy's "ocean-going operational strength." Since December 2008, China has been rampant in the Gulf of Aden to the pirates, Somali waters to send warships to escort the implementation of the task. This, Japanese media have commented that: "In the Gulf of Aden to combat piracy actions conducive to the accumulation of Chinese ocean-going naval combat experience." "Los Angeles Times" said, escort mission in Somalia is growing, the Chinese Navy "full expand overseas the flares. "

China's rising naval hardware


United States and Japan tried to blockade the Chinese navy's attempt, after all is an illusion. With China's rapid economic development and globalization of China's national interests, China's fledgling navy is only a matter of time.


90 years ago in the last century, the Chinese navy's main from "LD"-class destroyer, "Wild World"-class missile frigates, 033 conventional submarines and other warships and composition of the tonnage of these vessels less common, less able to shortcomings voyage . The lack of advanced surface warships main air defense missiles and radar systems, need to shore-based air cover, can effectively combat capability. Can be said that the early Chinese fleet is a wing in the Air Force combat forces under the coastal waters.


With the rapid economic development, China's shipbuilding industry has made considerable progress. The Chinese Navy has new destroyers, frigates and large dock landing ship and other equipment have been completely out of the "Soviet style", forming a distinctive "Chinese characteristics", such advanced warships for the Chinese navy into an offshore foundation.

One aspect of warship, 052C-class "Chinese Aegis", 051C "Russian type Aegis" destroyers and other models have served to make the Chinese Navy with a regional air defense capability for the deployment of ocean-going fleet to provide "umbrella"; a large number of new The "Jiang Kai" class frigates have been commissioned, and anti-piracy operations in the Gulf of Aden has a good performance by stealth ship design, equipped with a vertical launch air defense missiles; advanced conventional submarines, as well as speculation that the new nuclear submarines , will enhance the ability of the Chinese navy's underwater deterrent. At present, the Chinese navy's ocean-going ability to act with the United States and Europe, etc. Although there is not a small naval power gap, but with good "bones" and wanted to become a powerful ocean-going navy, just keep filling "muscle."

Expert Comments: The United States and Japan should adapt to China's naval expansion


Cold War has been for many years, but "on the first island chain" still cause trouble, it shows that some people in U.S. and Japan have not yet out of the psychological shadow of the Cold War. Famous Chinese strategist, Rear Admiral Yang Yi, the National Defense University on the "News of the World," told reporters: "The United States still did not give up now 'island chain system of China' strategy, which the United States to pursue hegemony of the ocean has a direct relationship. Based on this mentality, the United States could allow China to try to be brave land, but does not allow China to the sea but only challenge the United States. "


Experts pointed out that, in fact, the United States and Japan and other countries should get used to the Chinese navy's development. Maritime transport is the lifeblood of the economy, improve naval power to protect national maritime interests, is to defend an important part of the national interest and also a important way to increase international contributions. "The Chinese Navy has been pursuing a policy of active defense, our goal is not to expand their control of certain areas, but to serve China's national interests and the international community to contribute to public safety." Yang Yi said.


Yang Yi said that China will not have the "first island chain" to hold back, give up the development of its own naval forces. On the contrary, United States and Japan need to recognize the stability of China's naval forces in the world the possibility of, and not man set out a geographical island chain, create tension in the Western Pacific.

Chinese Navy anti-submarine capability obtained a sudden increase in the number of times

The Chinese navy has in their own territorial sea, to begin deploying a set of "appraisal and analysis of underwater acoustic detection system", the system's English referred to as SOSUS system. U.S. military experts believe that this system is like the Chinese in China, the U.S. Navy out of the first and second island chain of paths laid, "Underwater Acoustic sonar array," just like a quiet designed to deal with hostile states submarine reconnaissance system. This system is distributed in the key area by a number of fixed underwater acoustic sensor array composed of an underwater detection network, which, respectively, to detect the voice of its own data base through a submarine optical fiber transmission to a central computer processor, there are special experienced staff departments careful analysis than to accurately determine the underwater target position, type, country and various dynamic parameters, and then be able to notify one's own anti-submarine force (underwater, surface, and the air ) implementation of the accurate tracking, or attack missions. According to U.S. military experts judged that the system is able to pinpoint the vast majority of waters in the western Pacific is running on behalf of a secret underwater world, the highest level of the U.S. Navy nuclear-powered submarines, if the system is combined with the Chinese Navy in recent years, specifically the establishment of at least five Coastal Remote and medium-range maritime surveillance radar intelligence system composed of water, and China's marine surveillance satellites launched two years ago the composition of ocean monitoring network, the Chinese navy has a three-dimensional monitoring of the capacity of the Western Pacific!

The reason why the Chinese navy deliberately to establish a set of such systems, the purpose lies in the future if China and potential rivals in the Western Pacific region either a strategy for conflict, China will sink, or at least having the capacity to defeat five or more combat aircraft carrier battle group a powerful class of surface targets! Because in the event of such conflict, it might lead to high-intensity all-out war, while the opponent's aircraft carrier battle groups both hidden in the underwater nuclear-powered attack submarines to protect the carrier battle group will also cover and protect one's own strategic missile submarines, or cruise missile submarines into attack positions, and China this underwater acoustic detection system is to accurately and quickly determine the secret submersible underwater combat enemy submarines, which resulted in a complete strike the enemy destroyed one by one all the water to the invading enemy! Previously, China's anti-submarine exist in name only, and only the implementation of a single patrol ships patrolling the waters on a regular basis at a fixed routine patrol will open the ship (boat) contains anti-submarine sonar in order to obtain a real-time underwater sea area intelligence. Although subsequent advances in electronic technology with China, the Chinese in some important areas of the coast of the establishment of a number of "simple" listening sonar base, but because the background sound is a complex terrain and coastal water as a carrier, and therefore the actual detection of results are unsatisfactory. Quiet good results while the United States nuclear-powered submarines of various types, it is to see China's anti-submarine information, relatively backward, and thus frequently sail to China along the coast to detect and strategic threat. If the United States can not happen to be the Chinese navy submarine detected (as the seventies of the last century because of China's two submarine chasers off the coast of the post-maintenance test machine happens to the U.S. strategic nuclear submarines to detect and to force it to emerge from China's territorial waters), China's coastal waters are on the race course, as Americans, they are quietly coming to a walk after lap gain vital intelligence to quietly leave quietly, as long as Americans do not poke out of their own, and we also kept in the dark As the Americans have never been to the same!

Today, the Chinese Navy, this system has been running, almost all the countries in the Western Pacific, the activities of the dynamic parameters of the submarine, are controlled in the Chinese navy's strategic decision-making in the hands. The system not only allows access to the Chinese navy's antisubmarine capabilities increase the number of times, but also increase the tracking and detection of foreign submarines, the difficulty of Chinese submarines, more importantly, this system can help the Chinese naval surface and underwater naval vessels, in turn detect and track foreign submarines, just like the original Alien, and we play the "cat and mouse game" Now we begin with them playing "cat mouse play the game" of! This underwater sonar - a remote shore-based radar - space marine surveillance satellite network system can provide real-time dynamics of the Chinese Navy Marine intelligence surveillance capabilities, especially in the highly competitive Western Pacific region, this capacity for the Chinese navy is especially important! Once the Chinese navy's this ability to run sophisticated and well coordinated, then the central and western Pacific region, a foreign navy will do as they wish the days gone! Can also be said that the submarine on an underwater strong Chinese navy, in their own SOSUS the successful operation of the system, its actual "small unit tactics of wolves," the activities in the western Pacific submarine force will be unleashed, not only the success of anti - system of the United States and the client's underwater fleet, but also to further enhance its U.S. Navy aircraft carrier battle groups to the actual strike capability (Our Song, Yuan, Kilo-class already have such a capacity, not to say that we have 093 attack submarine had)!

Chinese Navy's submarine force in the successful have SOSUS system, finally compete with the U.S. Navy's submarine force is no longer passive!
