It is noteworthy that, in the exercise before the start of the US-ROK military has declared to be large in scale than in previous years. The exercises in the past generally have more than 10,000 local and U.S. troops participated, but the number of participants has reached U.S. 30 000.

Continued US-ROK military exercise

In recent months, U.S. and South Korea have held a series of military exercises and the upcoming rise to great concern of all parties.

July 25 -28 days, U.S. and South Korea in the Sea of Japan “indomitable will” joint military exercises at sea, the United States, “George Washington •” aircraft carrier, Asia’s largest landing ship “Dokdo” ships, ships and more than 20 “F -22 “200 fighter aircraft participated in the exercises. U.S. and South Korea more than 8,000 troops into the two sides. This is since 1976, the largest US-ROK military exercise carried out. Japan sent four maritime self-defense, the first officer in the exercise as observers.

August 5 -9 days, South Korea in the West Sea (the Yellow Sea), held a separate land, sea, maritime mobility exercises. It is reported that 4,500 South Korean soldiers participate in the largest ever anti-submarine exercises.

Apart from August 16 -26 will be held on the “guardian of Ulchi free” exercise, the South Korean military official said: “Korea and the U.S. will be in September after the mid-western China Sea (that is, the Yellow Sea) to conduct a joint military exercise . until the end of the year, the Korea-US joint military exercise program once a month. ”

The previous two exercises, the US-ROK exercise between the two countries will aim to point to the DPRK.

In the “indomitable will” exercise before, South Korean Defense Minister Jin Tairong with U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates issued a joint statement • This is a “defensive nature of the exercise.” The aim is clear to the DPRK, the DPRK “to cease hostilities,” Korea and the U.S. in the future for peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula to enhance joint defense capabilities.

In the beginning of August 5 anti-submarine exercises in South Korea, the ROK side said that this exercise is to demonstrate South Korea’s military strength to deal with “a potential violation of the DPRK.”

North Korea said it would take the most severe military response

15 August, a spokesman for the Korean People’s Army General Staff, issued a statement in Pyongyang for the upcoming Korea-US joint military exercises, the Korean army would take “the most severe military response measures.”

Korean Central News Agency quoted the spokesperson, then the same day reported that, in terms of size, content and nature, the Korea-US joint military exercises are forthcoming for the DPRK’s “full-scale war exercises” and “nuclear war exercises.”

Series of military exercises conducted on the US-ROK, the DPRK has maintained a hard line.

A spokesman for the DPRK National Defense Commission, on July 24 issued a statement, said it would “to a strong nuclear deterrent force” to respond to the US-ROK joint military exercise series.

Korean Central News Agency on July 31 issued a “indictment”, the recent activities of the militants accused the United States, the Korean Peninsula “extremely deteriorated”, is in the “eve of war” status, but also seriously undermine the Northeast Asia peace and stability .

And on August 9 the end of the day South Korean anti-submarine exercise, the western waters of Korea to the “northern boundary” (NLL) fired more than 130 pieces of coastal artillery. South Korea’s navy once into the alert and fight situation, a warning to North Korea broadcast.

Further reading: The United States has frequently participated in military exercises in China’s neighboring

In addition to a number of joint exercises with South Korea, the United States and Vietnam’s first joint exercise also caused a lot of discussion:

From August 11, the United States and Vietnam in the South China Sea held a week-long joint naval exercises, primarily non-combat training, in order to “further promote military exchanges with Vietnam to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the normalization of US-Vietnam relations.” It is reported that the U.S. military, “George • Washington” nuclear-powered aircraft carrier also took part in the exercises.

U.S. officials said the US-Vietnam joint naval exercises, “the U.S. Navy as part of series of outreach activities.” However, the BBC reported that “George Washington •” aircraft carrier and three destroyers involved in the exercise, place it in the South China Sea, indicating that “the U.S. commitment to defend freedom of the South China Sea shipping.” Just recently concluded ASEAN Regional Forum, the U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton • Bill Clinton claimed: “freedom of navigation in the South China Sea is related to U.S. national interests.”

Some analysts believe that with “Tian number” events, normalize relations with Vietnam 15 years, the United States to participate in military exercises in China’s neighboring row can be achieved several aims: to consolidate the Korea-US alliance with the ROK-US speech, inhibiting the relocation of U.S. military bases in Japan; with the United States The more exercise to win over Southeast Asia, “spoiler,” South China Sea issue, the formation of “North and South contain” China situation.

Apart from Korea, Vietnam to conduct joint exercises, June 23, the United States and Singapore, Malaysia and other 14 countries together to carry out joint military exercises around the Pacific Rim.

The U.S. “national” magazine that “the United States desire to establish ‘in Asia – Pacific military alliance’ to contain China, the methods and the establishment of NATO after World War II to deter the Soviet Union exactly the same.”

The behavior of the United States, China Society of Military Science, Major General, Deputy Secretary-General Luo Yuan, this shows that they still adhere to the Cold War mentality, pursuing to the jungle rules of the game as the philosophical foundation of the gunboat policy, bullying, to “light muscle” in the form of put pressure on China and ASEAN countries against China stimulation.

However, Luo Yuan pointed out that Americans want to “disturb the South China Sea” is not so easy. China-ASEAN relations have developed well, the two sides to further enhance the degree of dependence. ASEAN will not lose the greater loss of opportunities for mutual benefit with China.

U.S. Centre for Strategic and International Studies, Southeast Asia expert Ouneisituo • Powell also said: “not that many ASEAN countries are the top cow in the elephant, the courage to stand up, take the lead.”

Japan 22DDH is a serious threat to China’s submarine

Jul 6

Posted by admin in Asia, China, Japan | No Comments

Japan 22DDH 214x300 Japan 22DDH is a serious threat to Chinas submarineWhy does Japan have repeatedly Qingli large deck type ship built? Does this mean that Japan’s defeat in World War II aircraft carrier again after the recovery of their dreams?

Recently, the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force agreed that the third ship “helicopter destroyers” will be the relative size and capacity have been served “on the” class helicopter carrier, a major improvement. New 22DDH ship more than 24,000 tons displacement, which makes it almost more than 16DDH “day to” level the size of the helicopter carrier is 50%, so difficult to use the “destroyer” to refer to those ships. Taking into account the size of ship, with the United States during World War II, “Essex” class aircraft carrier in comparison. Why is Japan again Qing Li built a large deck type ship? Does this mean that Japan’s defeat in World War II aircraft carrier again after the recovery of their dreams?

Carrier after another big ship

In 22DDH helicopter carrier, Japan had a continuous manufacturing and service the two types of large ships through the deck, which is known for long, “Osumi”-class landing ship and helicopter transport 16DDH “on the” class helicopter destroyer.

In service since 1998 “Dayu” class landing ship helicopter transport links with all the deck starboard island structure, the standard displacement reached 8,900 tons, Captain 178 meters long, and nearly 26 meters wide, can carry 1,000 Marines, 16 CH -47 heavy-duty helicopters, 10 Type 90 main battle tanks and 1,400 tons of material, two large air-cushion landing craft. Although the Japanese to “Dayu” level as the transport landing craft, they have deliberately conceal class aircraft carrier combat. But it was through type flight deck and aft deck structure can be proved beyond the normal landing craft ship capacity, the potential function of an aircraft carrier, is “quasi-carrier.” “Dayu” class landing ship transport aircraft carrier in Japan has really laid the foundation for a number of militarists in Japan that “Dayu” number service, marking the Japanese aircraft carrier of the comeback. “Dayu” class landing ship transport service, the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Forces are not satisfied with such a “quasi carriers,” starts on a new aircraft carrier.

In 2004, the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force began building 16DDH “on the” class “helicopter escort.” The first ship “on the” number, in August 2007 and launched service in March 2009. Second ship “Ise” was also launched in August 2009, is expected to serve in 2012. The ship deck using all-pass starboard island structure, the standard displacement of 13,500 tons, can carry up to a total of 11 helicopters of various types, can be parked on the flight deck 4, hangar seven, while allowing four helicopters can take off and land. Although the Japanese call it “helicopter escort,” but ship is fully equipped to be a light aircraft carrier with all the features, according to NATO standards is actually a helicopter carrier.

Japan’s Maritime Self-Defense Forces “day to” was launched when the helicopter destroyer had the U.S. media exclaimed: “This is the first one in Japan after World War II aircraft carrier.” Many military experts also believe that “day to” was able to slightly improve the carrier’s new faces join the ranks of Japan’s Self-Defense Forces. But the United States, “Defense News” quoted the Tokyo Institute of peace and security, the President as saying, “The new helicopter destroyer deck is too thin, F-35 can not withstand the pressure of landing.” Helicopter carrier that has a 195 m long straight flight deck, can withstand 33 tons of large-scale helicopter transport MH-53E “Sea Dragon” movements.

For the construction of the new 22DDH Japanese helicopter aircraft carrier, the superstructure and the “day to” class helicopter carrier, similar to the difference is surrounded by 01 deck extension, deck area increased by nearly one-third of the total, can be large enough to accommodate vertical launch air defense missile system. And “day to” class helicopter carrier, the new ship’s point defense capability beyond its double, which is equipped with four MK15 “Phalanx” The gun and two “Ram” short-range defense system launchers, The “day to” level is only equipped with two “Phalanx” The gun.

Japanese financial project that, 22DDH dramatic increase in ship size design one of the reasons is that Japan plans to V-22 “Osprey” tilt-rotor aircraft as a major air forces of these ships. In addition, 22DDH ship’s design also includes consideration of operating unmanned aerial vehicles.

Anti-submarine helicopter carrier lies

Since the post-war Japanese economy recovered from the post, began to wait for an opportunity to seek revival of its aircraft carriers Dream, “Day to the” issue of the construction of aircraft carriers is the first step put the plan into action. More military experts believe that as long as Japan are US-made F-35B Short / vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, immediately will be able to “day to” was converted into a real aircraft carrier. Moreover, as long as the time is ripe, “Japan to” level and “Dayu” level can be in the “converted into an aircraft carrier within two months” to form a new carrier battle group. Military strategy experts pointed out that the future development of the Japanese aircraft carrier program, and the United States is not without relevance. 50′s of last century, the Korean War with the United States of support and opportunity, the Japanese took the opportunity to “revive” its own military forces. However, the U.S. has no intention to build a Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force to undertake operational tasks independently powerful sea power, but to as a “small attendant.”

So, the construction of so many big Japanese navy helicopter carrying capacity with a strong surface ships, is for what? The answer is: the implementation of ocean-going anti-submarine mission. Soviet hegemony in the Cold War era Soviet submarine fleet in order to prevent conflict into the Pacific, the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force in the United States, Japan anti-Soviet Union, to carry the heavy anti-submarine pioneers. After the Cold War, the Russian Pacific Fleet, shrinking, growing Japanese patrol area will be expanded to the South China Sea, the strategic task to contain China’s submarine into the ocean. Japanese shore-based anti-submarine combat radius is limited, so the helicopter carrier have come into being, “Dayu” class helicopter carrying a total of four, 16DDH can carry 11 helicopters, 22DDH will carry at least 14 helicopters, mainly SH-60K “Hawk” anti-submarine helicopters, as the fleet’s flagship ocean anti-submarine warfare, to join the existing fleet of “19″ fleet, may be anti-submarine combat capability to double to cover the area have increased several times.

Japanese prefer to give these helicopters contains a selection of the V-22 “Osprey” tilt-rotor aircraft, a model for the SV-22 anti-submarine model, the model is the U.S. Navy plans to replace the S-3 “pirate” ship-borne anti-submarine aircraft general aircraft type. Reached its maximum combat radius of 1205 km. SV-22 will be equipped with hanging sonar, magnetic anomaly detectors, sonar buoys and Mk-50 anti-submarine torpedoes. As the V-22 “Osprey” aircraft superior short-range vertical takeoff and landing performance, so that it can carry anti-submarine equipment, more and more comprehensive, and therefore a greater range of anti-submarine capabilities and patrolling. As the world’s second-largest anti-submarine power of Japan, this would have more than 100 fixed-wing aircraft of advanced anti-submarine patrol aircraft, plus “19″ Fleet-class anti-submarine capabilities, and then join the group if the helicopter carrier’s carrier aircraft, That is really an even more powerful of Japan’s maritime anti-submarine warfare.

Break the bottom line deterrence neighbors

The construction of aircraft carriers in Japan as the biggest obstacle to peace in the Constitution from the domestic constraints, followed by the United States can not allow Japan to build a large attack aircraft carriers, is another who has suffered from Japanese aggression in Asia over the country will not allow Japan to build a real aircraft carrier. But also see the world, though Japan’s pacifist constitution limits have realized they still sending troops overseas, Self-Defense Force ships are openly patrolling in the Gulf of Aden and began to build Zhubo base, also to upgrade the Defense Agency Ministry of Defense and so on. Driven by this trend, if one day, tear up the constitution of Japan, a large-scale production of attack aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines and intercontinental ballistic missiles, is also very possible. Particularly in the current U.S. military rising because of China, worried about the destruction of their Western Pacific strategic balance of Hua, the Keneng to open one eye close one eye to the default strategy of self-Fa Zhan Japanese aircraft carrier force, in particular for the parent type is 22DDH improve the most likely to attack aircraft carriers. This occurs when the sovereignty dispute between China and Japan, the Chinese navy’s submarine force as a large number of in wartime combat forces out of the first island chain, Japan’s powerful anti-submarine force will face checks and balances. Japanese construction 16DDH and 22DDH helicopter carrier on the Chinese Navy submarine force will be the threat of death.

Whether the construction of these vessels in Japan What is the purpose, but you can believe that neighboring countries will not stand idly by: Japan to improve the anti-submarine capabilities and remote combat capabilities, countries would have hidden under the capital increase and the submarine offensive, South Korea and other countries GM will build a more active type deck landing ship and related marine ships, South Korea’s “Dokdo” was obvious examples.

The Japanese both cunning and clever, while in calling for the “aircraft carrier China threat” theory, it already started building his own hands while the aircraft carrier battle groups, and possession of a large head and hide my face to call the helicopter destroyer. At this point, even the United States, Russia have been the calculation of the Japanese “sneak” to deceived. Japan defeated the old, will be inadvertently carrier power, and become a threat to neighboring Asian countries, a strong naval force.

China CH-3 is designed reference to Malaysia UAV

Jul 2

Posted by admin in Asia, China | No Comments

China CH 3 UAV 300x207 China CH 3 is designed reference to Malaysia UAVUAV research and development in the United States, Europe and Israel leader, but also as a rising star of Chinese efforts to develop many types of UAVs, and actively participate in international competition. Malaysia, “Kuala Lumpur Safety Review” recently reported that China’s “Rainbow -3″ no attack aircraft not only frequent international air show debut, and received orders, also introduced the latest model. The report also speculated that this advanced unmanned attack aircraft have been borrowed from foreign designs.

“Rainbow -3″ no attack aircraft by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation 11 Research Institute, a 3-point landing gear and propeller engines, can be linked to two AR-1 anti-tank missiles. Reportedly, the “Rainbow -3″ already exported to some Asian countries. In another development, China is also ready to launch this year’s Zhuhai Air Show, the new “Rainbow” series of unmanned attack aircraft, may be the speculation of the “Rainbow -4.”

In addition, the “Kuala Lumpur Safety Review,” also revealed that cooperation between Malaysia and the UAE has developed a product called “Masahiro-R” of the UAV, the unmanned shape and size of China’s “Rainbow -3″ are surprisingly similar . Allegedly, this in order to improve the drone-based unmanned surveillance aircraft can carry from 100 kg load, but no armed.

“Kuala Lumpur security reviews” guess, “said Masahiro-R” was published in 2005, and China’s “Rainbow -3″ debut in 2008 in Zhuhai, separated by 3 to 4 years. Therefore, the “Rainbow -3″ may refer to the former design. But analysts pointed out that in the UAV field, multi-country phase with a kind of shape are also common. More importantly, the current “Masahiro-R” only unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, does not yet have the ability to attack the “Rainbow -3″ is already the attack / reconnaissance platform integrating mature, obviously superior.

Western media can not understand the Chinese military don’t carry guns to the disaster area

Jul 2

Posted by admin in Asia, China, Observers | No Comments

Western media can not understand the Chinese military dont carry guns to the disaster area 300x225 Western media can not understand the Chinese military dont carry guns to the disaster areaSince the June 15 People’s Liberation Army into effect the new “House rules” provides that, in post, barracks door, weapons storage sites and other important guard duty, guard, to be equipped with firearms and ammunition.

This means that the barracks gate guard duty troops will no longer be as before, only to wear a space mission magazine, and begin to live ammunition to keep watch task.

Then the new “House rules,” Why do these adjustments? The reality of the need for this adjustment is reflected in what?

The above problems, the reporter interviewed military experts, the National Defense University Professor Gong Bin.

Bullet combination can improve the ability of soldiers to perform their duties

Reporter: The new “Domestic Affairs” Why should the provisions of the guards to carry live ammunition security tasks?

Gong Bin: The newly revised “House Bill” specifies “in any place, any situation, who must be equipped with guns and ammunition.” In short, the basic purpose of human bullet combination is effective to enhance capacity of service personnel to perform their duties.

Separation of the Chinese military bullet that is superior social nature

Reporter: The new “House rules” promulgated before the camp gate guard duty guard is how to do it? Why?

Gong Bin: The combination of human bullets and separation in the military is structured. Battlefield, it goes without saying, certainly the combination of one bullet, and then we went through different stages. I am a soldier in bed when the bullet, the readily desirable.

But later, after the separation of management to take bullets. This is in fact the Westerners are more concerned about. Earthquake can not think of the Western media referred to two points, one can not think of Chinese soldiers to the disaster areas is not a gun, the other can not think of is the relationship between the military and the people so well.

The two can not think of the deep revealed the separation of the Chinese army can exist why the bullet, and in the West does not exist.

This is inside the security considerations, but the deeper nature of the tasks mainly by the military and China’s social status determined.

China’s long history of military heritage, social and moral image of the good, won the trust of the people – this case only by moral image processing related tasks, the course of duty sufficient to effectively address all the problems, so do not bring in the service of truth gun ammunition.

Western military and, unlike China, the West is taking the military and society, and people separated way, do not encourage the military to take up social services, response to disasters is most Yikao professional force, when necessary to maintain order troops into the disaster area when the problem becomes too serious.

With many Western societies guns, coupled with people’s human personality problems, they face a number of events need strong problem-solving.

Bullets appear one separation is a very simple phenomenon, reflecting the troops behind the nature and moral status in society and image.

Is a heavily armed guard to adapt to the new period of social development

Reporter: The new House rules and regulations combined with the reality of the need for bullet What?

Gong Bin: The reason for making the combination of one bullet, does not mean our military values and functions of a fundamental change in mission, mainly the reality needs to be done according to a technical adjustment.

In recent years, frequently occurring sentinel killed, the reason firearms stolen from the various events, the corresponding introduction of the policy is also necessary.

One problem is that there ethnic separatists, terrorists are increasingly rampant, because the separatists increasingly concentrated attacks on military objectives, this case must ensure that guards are capable of responding to hazardous elements, must provide the necessary means , which requires one cartridge combination.

Another major social transition, with frequent contradictions, uncertainties abound about. Social transition must be multiple conflicts, for various reasons some people to mental imbalance and psychological distortions.

Although we say about social issues as long as not violent, general internal approach, without live ammunition, but still need special circumstances of containment and deterrence, which requires a means to enhance the problem.

In addition, the diversity and commitment of our military relationship between the military tasks.

The new mission and ability to enhance the performance of their duties, it must extend to the means to come, it is going to expand our military functions and tasks, take one bullet combination of measures and policies should be the one.

However, the United Kingdom the United States did, bought 400 new larger diameter “marksman” rifle. This rifle uses 7.62 mm caliber bullets, very effective in the long-range operations. It is expected to join before the end of the standard rifle used in Afghanistan.

However, the U.S. M4 rifle to consider is to replace. Such rifles when conducting multiple bursts less than 1000 feet away from the standard. U.S. plans to appoint nine soldiers each infantry company as a sniper, and with the new M110 sniper rifle – it’s standard distance 2,500 feet.

M4 rifle in close combat and SA80A2 one example, the narrow streets of Basra in southern Iraq – is very effective. However, in Helmand province, rural environment, they will not be so effective. Where Taliban members often position 300 meters away, it is hard hit.

Enduring use of AK-47 rifle bullets heavier bullets fly faster and more accurate. In recent months, Taliban attacks increase the success rate increased concerns about the U.S. military and forced the U.S. to consider re-use heavier ammunition. This kind of ammunition in the 20th century during the Vietnam War 60 years had been abandoned.

“British armed forces,” editor Charles Heyman said, in different contexts using different weapons, it is important. But he said: “The 5.56 mm caliber bullets, the number carried more than 7.62 mm caliber bullets, so in two ways that have their own advantages and disadvantages.”

U.S. special forces made this summer with a new super weapon – XM25 grenade launcher, it can at 700 meters away to the Taliban fired rocket-propelled grenades.
