China and Russia is to provide a new batch of aircraft engine negotiations.

Moscow, Russia “Salute” machine factory director in charge of foreign economic activity even gold Igor Mule said China’s target is for the procurement of equipment Su -27 and Su -30 of the AL-31F, and to equip the F- 10 of the AL-31FN engine, the total will reach 100.

As Chinese enterprises can not produce the necessary power and has a service life of aircraft engines, Beijing has been in constant military aircraft engines from Russia. In 2005, China will spend 238 million U.S. dollars had purchased 100 Russian-made RD-93 engines. In addition, Russia has also signed up about 500 aircraft engines to provide the framework agreement. China has also said that 1000 imports from Russia for more improved engine thrust.

January 2009, China has purchased 122 units from the Russian AL-31FN engine, used equipment made in China F -10 fighter. The total value of the transaction is 5 million. Igor Mule even Jinjie Shao said the performance of this contract will be completed in the near future, while Russia in the future may also provide China with greater thrust and longer life of the engine.

In early 2010, the Russian Sukhoi and MiG company has expressed opposition to China RD-93 engines. Because the Chinese JF-17 export-oriented fighter is equipped with this engine, while the price of JF-17 will be low on the export of the MiG -29 pose a serious threat.

However, General Manager of Pogo go hand in hand after Sukhoi announced that Russia will continue to export to China RD-93 engines, because the overall performance of JF-17 Russian-made fighters would pose no threat to development. He pointed out that technical and tactical performance of the Chinese fighter, “but also far less than the Russian-made fighters.”

Apart from continuing to export AL-31F and AL-31FN engine, At the recent International Airshow China in Zhuhai, “Salute,” a company spokesman said the company is developing improved AL-31FN engine model – Peibei controlled vectored thrust nozzle of the AL-31FN M1. The new engine when the afterburner thrust of 12,500 kg, can be used for equipment produced in China and J -11 J -10 fighters.

Russia blocks China’s arms exports resulting Sino-Russian tensions

Chinese J 11B fighter 300x170 Russia blocks Chinas arms exports resulting Sino Russian tensions

China's J-11B fighter

China’s growing military strength of the fear caused by the Russian side, the field of military relations between the two countries in a number of new tensions, one of which is that Russia is taking measures to fully block China’s arms exports.

Weapons in the emerging markets of China rival Russia’s defense

From 2006 to 2007, China military relations between Russia and, especially in the sales area, will gradually deteriorate.

Although the cooling of bilateral relations, in part reflects the increased strength of China’s defense industry, but more and more people began to Russia’s defense industry on the increasing ability of China expressed concern, and the Chinese copy of Russian weapons design and in Asia, Africa and third-party market in Latin America the practice of trial of strength with Russia angry.

A copy of the Russian military weapons, not only make China a powerful military state, but also to become an emerging market, with the Russian defense match competitors. For example, the Russian experts to replicate the Chinese Su-27UBK surprised the speed of aircraft.

Allegedly, the end of 2009, the Chinese Central Military Commission Vice Chairman General Guo’s visit to Moscow, the two sides did not sign the substantive military technical cooperation agreement.

In this regard, the Russian source said that during the visit, the Chinese side accused Russia of failure to comply with a number of bilateral military-technical agreement with China, a position that Russia is quite Yaran.

For China’s accusations that Russia replied that the reason why Russia failed to sell Il -76 transport aircraft engines to China, because the production equipment in Uzbekistan has lost production capacity.

In response, China said Beijing will direct contacts with Uzbekistan, which means that Russia must Tashkent, Uzbekistan, aircraft manufacturing companies to inject new capital, which is impossible.

China also said its first phase will only purchase four Su -33 fighter, even though Russia plans to export to China 40 of the fighters.

Therefore, the two sides failed to reach an agreement Su -33 fighter. Russian media also strongly opposed to Russia’s new generation of military technology export to China.

In addition, exports to China KA-28 anti-submarine helicopters, technology, China and Russia failed to reach agreement. Moscow do not want China to facilitate the sale of its aircraft and ships equipped with automatic keep in touch with communications and navigation systems.

However, it is reported that China will develop these systems self.

Although both sides agreed in principle to upgrade the Russian sale of two former China Modern-class destroyers and two Kilo-636 submarines, the early models, so the club could be launched 3M-54E anti-ship missiles, but the two sides are in the submarine is still in Russia Reconstruction in China such as Beijing like the issue of differences emerged.

If the construction in China, Russia must invest in Chinese factories, but Russia refused to do so.

While China and Russia to China to sell more helicopters and Al31F/FN meters -17 RD-93 aircraft engines and signed the agreement, but obviously the negotiations had reached an impasse.

And now the situation has become worse. Built in Wuhan, China, “Land aircraft carrier” clearly shocked the Russian and Western national experts. At least some experts believe it can be like a real aircraft carrier that can be used to take off as a training platform for carrier-based fighter.

Moscow blocking the export of arms to overseas Chinese

March of this year, Sukhoi general manager Mikhail Whale cell phase made it clear that although Russia may develop with India T-50 fifth generation fighter, and exported to countries such as Libya and Vietnam, but will not sell to China.

Russian arms sales to Vietnam and India, a boom (which exist between the two countries and China military tension) that Moscow hopes to obtain the aircraft required to stop China’s technology and systems, because Russia worried that China will clone its technology, concerned that the Chinese have the military capability of this aircraft may, after some kind of action in the Indian Ocean.

In addition, Moscow is plainly to prevent the export of China to overseas fighters. For example, China, Russia agree to its exports to Myanmar’s required FC1 RD-93 fighter engine exports to Myanmar in order to win the “MiG -29″ fighter contract.

Moscow Myanmar intervention in this way by the Chinese JF-17 fighter procurement practices that Russia intended to prevent potential customers in China for sale to the Russian fighter.

At the same time, Russia’s strategic and technical analysis, Hough Puke, director and other experts launched a press campaign, said that China can not copy the Russian fighters, as the result of very poor copy.

Puck Hough warned that China not only is it the procurement of all replication Russian fourth-generation fighters, but also copied the sale of the engine from Russia to China.

Similarly, the Russian defense officials have publicly vilified the ability of the Chinese F -15 fighter, Su -33 fighter as saying capacity.

Thus, while the Russian sale of fighter planes in China this year will use more than 40 RD-93 engine, but apparently the two sides in this area of competition and mutual suspicion are increasingly open.

Russia wants to contain China’s military hardware procurement and the ability to grow, China’s market penetration Third World countries is clear from these aspects.

Moscow’s actions show that Russia is increasingly worried about China’s military strength. Arms sales broke out between Moscow and Beijing, the only visible area of competition.

In Central Asia, such as the 2008 recognition of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, the break and in 2009 China natural gas pipeline outside the Russian monopoly in Central Asia can be seen in this conflict.

Reason to believe that in the recent outbreak of religious conflict in Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, China and Russia jointly to prevent military intervention in Kyrgyzstan, but also the first time, under the CSTO (and not just within the SCO) momentum over Moscow .

Military relations between China and Russia are increasing the tension

Military relations between China and Russia are increasing the tension, the two leaders are well aware.

June of this year, Chinese State Councilor Dai met Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the international community is undergoing complex and radical change, so fully the importance of enhancing bilateral relations between Russia and the urgency to become ” more prominent. ”

Moreover, Chinese President Hu Jintao also said to Sergei Lavrov, to comprehensively strengthen bilateral relations, deepen cooperation and deepen the bilateral, regional and multilateral affairs major and sensitive to the exchange of views in order to achieve a deeper level of cooperation.

Russian support China at the expense of Japan

Oct 8

Posted by admin in Asia, India, Russia | Comments off

Medvedev and Putin 300x198 Russian support China at the expense of JapanIn late September, the leaders of Russia and China met in Beijing. At the same time, China protests Japan’s detention of a fishing vessel in the event is developing. No clear evidence that these two things are related, but these two things has the same meaning clues to suggest that these two things are not unrelated to the fork.

To clarify the historical issues of the joint declaration was signed, which makes the ownership of four northern Russia to be strengthened, and the Chinese people are concerned about the Diaoyu Islands. Despite years of negotiations, Russia and Japan in resolving the lack of progress on the four northern islands, while the Sino-Russian joint statement indicates that this problem can not see the possibility.

Russia, Japan and China are willing to sacrifice a supporter, there is no doubt that Beijing was pleasantly surprised.

China and other Asian countries, one can tell, the Chinese people that Japan’s occupation of the Diaoyu Islands is illegal, and seizure of fishing vessels is caused by the illegal occupation of the illegal acts. Marine patrol near the Chinese sent more and more prominent of these islands, the Chinese people support their government.

Russia, backed by China to other countries is indeed disturbing. For China, a time to relax, especially when follow-up to political events in Japan began to burst, and the problem of the release of Zhanqi Xiong Kan in trouble when the Prime Minister.

India will certainly be because Russia and China in the event of very close approach and feel uncomfortable. But for India, which also is an opportunity to emphasize to its border dispute with China in a vulnerable position. India has been hoped that more attention to China in the Indian Ocean countries on the implementation of the “string of pearls” strategy. September, India to a larger scale to find an excuse to strengthen India’s defense capabilities. Although the new regional defense program not be published, but for Japan and India, the introduction of the conditions of this program has become more mature.

Although the United States reconnaissance satellites to China more and more in-depth and enhanced, but India can now Japan’s space reconnaissance advantages for their own use.

India decided last month to re-equip the Su-30MKI can carry nuclear bombs fighters, move only one step away from the Sino-Indian border as a base away. This indicates that with China to strengthen its military and increase its military activities in the border, India and Japan have felt increasing pressure.

In other words, from India’s north-eastern border to the southeast of Japan’s maritime borders, China’s behavior and attitude is the same. Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh later this month visit to Japan, it is likely to be discussed to get on the table, but for some consideration, they want to discuss this issue quietly.

India and Russia have maintained a good relationship of long-term military assistance, it must re-examine the bilateral relations between the two countries. Beijing Sino-Russian talks on the excellent arrangements will remind India, Russia has its own priorities, has its own responsibility, will not give up any of the options.

Russian Navy will build a new generation of aircraft carrier

Aug 11

Posted by admin in Russia, Weapons | Comments off

According to Russia’s “Caucasus Project” website on August 7 report, before the Russian Navy commander Vysotsky, said in an interview that Russia would build a new generation of aircraft carriers, while also seeking to Tartous port in Syria, including The parking of heavy ships in foreign ports, he caused a lot of these expressions of national media attention surrounding Russia.

The new carrier with a powerful air defense capability

Vysotsky said that although Russia is to discuss the purchase with the French “West Wind”-class amphibious ship, but Russia still plans to build new aircraft carriers, including the Northern Design Bureau Design Bureau and Kwasniewski, including the number of units involved in this task.

In his view, the air force to protect one’s own submarines and destroying enemy submarines, an important means of, if not the Russian Northern Fleet aircraft carrier, submarine-launched missile superiority as it is entirely possible overnight, “zero.”

Technical parameters for the new aircraft carriers, Vysotsky said, “Now is too early to talk about these.” But he said the military hoped that the new carrier has superior air defense capability. In addition, the construction of the new carrier should be commenced under the state plan, rather than in the past, relying solely on government procurement.

In addition, Russia will step up, “Nitka” training center on land the building is expected to be completed by 2012. The training ground will be the Russian aircraft carriers of the major training facilities. 2020, Russia will be equipped with 15 surface ships, the Black Sea Fleet.

Seeking overseas military port in Turkey

Vysotsky talk about another important issue, is the Russian naval base overseas. “We will seek to obtain a better infrastructure, which has parking rights of foreign ports, including ports in Turkey and Greece. Meanwhile, our relations with Italy has becoming more, not rule out the possibility that we will ship the next berth in the Western Mediterranean of the possible. ”

Vysotsky said the Turkish port, which has aroused the concern of many Russian media. Closer relations with Turkey, the Black Sea coastal countries or countries such as Azerbaijan and Georgia, the media, both on Vysotsky’s position was reported. While Vickers said only hope that the Turkish port of ship berthing, and no implicit Which port, but the media in these countries, or that his position for the development of the Black Sea regional security situation has a point role.

In addition to striking the Turkish port, most people should be concerned about Syria’s Tartous port number. Vysotsky said the first Russian ship to seek the port as an end result of their own, then later turn it into overseas military bases, “At present, the Russian Navy only Tartus this a far sea, the future, we will heavy ships parked there. ”

The Soviet Union in 1971 with the signing of the Syrian port of Tartous using the contract, but with the Soviet Union, the Russian navy presence in the Mediterranean end, the Russian warships in Tartous gradually reduce the number of parking.

Russia’s “view report” analysis said that many generals said that even 10 Tartus, can not replace the Black Sea port of Sevastopol’s status. Today, Vysotsky’s statement clearly shows that the Mediterranean is still an important development direction of the Russian Navy, the significance of Tartous would stand out in this context.

Jul 7

Posted by admin in Russia | Comments off

Russias Far Eastern exercise 300x160 Russias Far Eastern exercise: Cruiser sunk the aircraft carrier 700 km outside“Red Alert, the Russian polar bear back to the Pacific.” Recently, the Western media have reported that the Russian Far East to meet the three main large-scale fleet exercises, in order to declare the Russian naval forces in the Pacific strength. Right now, the Russian navy fleet concentrated nearly 40 three main ships, held in the North Pacific, massive live ammunition exercises, signs that the military observers exclaimed: “Russians are trying to Andre flag (flag of the Russian Navy) inserted all over the world’s oceans. ”

Exercise equipment: three fleet “real situation” battle

According to Russian media reports, the Russian armed forces as “Oriental -2010″ part of a large-scale strategic and operational exercises, starting from June 30, the Russian navy from the North, the Black Sea Fleet and the Pacific for nearly 40 three large ships and more than 70 fighters, near the Russian-Japanese dispute the waters of the South Kuril Islands, a large-scale exercises.
Let the outside world was surprised, to express support for the revitalization of the Navy, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev deliberately sit halfway Northern Fleet’s flagship, “Peter the Great” nuclear-powered cruiser, the Arctic along the path to the Far East, to personally observe the naval exercises.

Although the Russian government and military leaders have repeatedly declared that the exercise is not directed at other countries, just to test the results of Russian military reform, and the ability to defend the country, but military experts have pointed, the Russian military exercise on the choice of location and mobilization of troops and equipment to indicate that the “Oriental -2,010″ exercise is obviously to the U.S. “show of strength” to establish its hegemony in the Asia-Pacific can not shake the sea.

In fact, the sea exercises in the waters has been set aside Russian naval vessels and helicopters, hazardous areas, banning all ships around, but the United States and Japan have ships, drill ships in the waters near the close, and “action rather suspicious. ”

Drills: drill-the-horizon anti-ship operations

“Oriental -2.01 thousand” part of exercises including landing at sea, seizing command of the sea, air defense, anti-submarine, accompanied by escort and other subjects.

The highlight of the exercise period in the sea battle, the Russian Pacific Fleet flagship “Kuznetsov” cruiser with the powerful P-500 “basalt” supersonic anti-ship missiles and aircraft carriers, 300 kilometers of the target ship simulation, and Dmitry Medvedev take the “Peter the Great” cruiser will also launch more powerful, as the case P-700 “granite” missile, which can be destroyed in more than 700 km outside a large aircraft carrier.

In fact, the Russian Navy anti-ship high-profile exercises-the-horizon operations, clearly demonstrate the meaning of the U.S. aircraft carrier battle groups, in accordance with the Russian Navy, “the first volley,” theory, the Russian navy will strive in future conflicts preemption, launch a large number of supersonic anti- missiles, long-distance destruction of the enemy fleet.

In addition, the main Russian Pacific Fleet, “Admiral Vinogradov” and “Saposnikov Marshal” was also the drone of large anti-submarine launched anti-aircraft missile 3K95 dagger, this is the first years of the missile live-fire, has been of great concern.

Aim of the exercise: Exercise capacity of Naval Operations

To make up for the Russian Navy ships retired a few years ago too fast offensive caused a “deficit”, the Russian military in the exercise of the war at greater long-range aviation component.

From the Russian Volga – Ural Military District, Siberian Military District of the Soviet Union -24, -34 front-line bomber Su deliberately non-stop from 8,000 kilometers away, the Pacific exercise, there was another A-50 early warning aircraft and air refueling IL -78 protects They destroyed the enemy at sea with cruise missile target, which means “not enough ships, aircraft and Minato,” the Russian ocean-going operations will be a major feature.

In view of the Russian navy to “the most valuable real situation” were getting the Pacific Ocean, the Russian military analysts Makiyenko noted that “Oriental -2010″ exercise of political purpose is to show “Russian armed forces, muscle” to expand Russia’s strategic space, but tactical level, there are training the Russian navy ocean and “no base of operation” capacity was intended.

U.S. Rand Corporation analyst said Schwartz, the Russian navy exercise will attract the United States, Japan and even South Korea’s extensive attention, “as long as the Russian fleet in the open sea for one day, both the intelligence and counter-reconnaissance of the contest will continuous day. ” He stressed that the Russian people are consciously and systematically to modernize its naval forces in order to maintain their strength with the U.S. goal of fairly possible, and to ensure that their weapons and be able to overcome the U.S. aircraft carrier battle group.

Russia Task “floating castles” against carrier

Russian Black Sea Fleet Flagship “Moscow” number and the Pacific Fleet flagship “Kuznetsov” was belong to the glorious class cruisers, is still heavily dependent on Russian naval ship species, especially the Russian aircraft carrier force has not amount to anything in the case, the glorious class cruiser team together with a large group composed of two submarines “to combat giant clamp” to contend with the powerful on behalf of the United States aircraft carrier battle group.

Slava class cruiser equipped with the 16 P-500 “basalt” anti-ship missile has a range up to 550 km, warhead weight 1 ton, is a nightmare for all major surface ships.

Easily without assignment of “Peter the Great” cruiser called “500 missiles set a” a medium-sized fleet of similar firepower, capable of sustained operations at sea for more than a few months, called “floating castle.”

Secret Weapon

Opportunistic potential strategic nuclear submarines

As the host, the Russian Pacific Fleet has also sent four modern destroyers and four fearless-class destroyers, responsible for security for the flagship mission. Modern-class destroyers to attack surface ships as the main objective, equipment 8 3M80E supersonic anti-ship missiles, while the fearless anti-submarine-class destroyers Zeyi mainly anti-submarine missiles equipped with 8 8P54.

In addition, the Russian Pacific Fleet has also sent four 677BDR secret type strategic nuclear submarine (SSBN), the implementation of hidden underwater combat. Each of the submarine fleet and equipment 16 SS-N-18 strategic missiles, each missile can carry 3-7 450 thousand tons equivalent of sub-guided nuclear warheads, maximum range of more than 8000 kilometers, 500 meters against accuracy.

Fighter

United Kingdom, “Jane’s Defense Review,” edited by Nikebulang that now has about 90 Russian Navy battleship and other ships, as many as 280 aircraft and helicopters and about 70 000 soldiers, Russia has begun to rely on high oil prices accumulated huge wealth – some spent on military buildup.

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has ordered the Defense Department to develop plans to build new aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines, said “financial issues are no longer so important.”

Therefore, the Kremlin look forward to in the near future, the Russian Navy in the waters outside of their own coastal waters show of force, with NATO warships warships to increase the confidence of positive confrontation.

Russian officials said the F-15 carrier aircraft in China is poor performance, perhaps to buy Su-33

Posted by admin in China, Russia | Comments off

Su 33 carrier aircraft 300x225 Russian officials said the F 15 carrier aircraft in China is poor performance, perhaps to buy Su 33

Su -33 carrier aircraft

Russia, the world arms trade analysis director, member of the Russian Federation Ministry of Defence and Social Commission for Igor – Secco koslowski shevchenko June 4 interview in Moscow said that as the performance is not high, the Chinese carrier aircraft F -15 failed in the external market for Russian-made Su -33 compete with similar products.

Earlier media reports, China is actively carrying out work on the development of domestic ship-based fighters, which is based on five years ago from Ukraine, Russia, purchasing the first batch of Su -33 fighter carrier test sample machine T-10K.

Secco koslowski shevchenko in to comment on this news, said: “China clones F -15 in the performance parameters may not be able to ship-borne Russian Su -33 fighter levels, so do not exclude the possibility of selling a group of Soviet Russia again request – 33 fighter for the possibility. ”

Russian experts believe that China has received the Soviet -33 test sample machine can not be the basis for the development of new equipment and technology, as from the Ukraine just purchased T-10K Su -33 developed several versions of the initial one, and only in the Soviet Union -33 production preparation within the framework of the pilot scheme before use, so there are many defects in its structure, and later in the trial and improvement in the elimination.

Secco koslowski shevchenko in particular, individual media reported that Chinese experts have successfully resolved the folding mechanism of the wing, he reports that this may not be realistic.

In addition, carrier-based fighter developed the most complex technical problems have developed engine problems.

The experts agreed that on the whole, aircraft engine development is the weakest parts of the aviation industry, China can not for the land-based fighter aircraft being developed entirely to meet the requirements of the engine, requiring a lot of buying from Russia, but for the carrier fighter aircraft engine manufacturing is a technically more complex tasks.

According to the Russian center of the world’s arms trade control of the situation, similar to the carrier-based Su -33 fighter aircraft carrier construction program is necessary.

Beijing has a few years ago the Soviet Union and Russia on the procurement issue over -33 negotiations on the procurement of the first two Su -33 to assess the technical performance of their flight, Russia’s dissatisfaction with this program.

China, Russia, after the proposed sale of a group of 12-14, Su -33, but Moscow believes that the program is equally unacceptable, because from an economic point of view, in this small number of Su-order condition to start the production line is not worth the -33 and Russia is also worried about technology leakage, because the Chinese samples in imitation of Russian weapons and equipment has a unique technology.

Secco koslowski shevchenko that the Sukhoi company’s final proposal is to supply the first batch of China 12-14, Su -33 aircraft standard aircraft for the Chinese naval air unit of the teaching and training flights, an additional supply of 36 complete aircraft, the result is rejected, then negotiations stalled.

Russian experts, and Russia in the Soviet -33 protracted procurement negotiations, China actively pursued the development of similar products SU -33 is scheduled to deploy to future domestic carrier.

China’s aircraft carrier program has been designed more than 20 years, in order to learn from foreign experience in aircraft carrier construction, the Chinese purchased while several States Navy decommissioned aircraft carrier, mainly in 1994 by the Australian aircraft carrier “Melbourne” number, and the former Soviet Union’s heavy-duty aircraft carrier the Navy cruiser “W good grid “number,” Minsk “number and” Kiev, “.

科罗特琴科 said, for the manufacture of aircraft carriers, Beijing also solve many of the most complex technical issues, including security devices and a variety of shipboard combat systems compatibility issues related to equipment, therefore part of the supply in China is There may also be forced to seek help from Russia or Ukraine.

According to the Russian center of the world’s arms trade analysis predicts that by 2020 China is ready to build 4-6 vessels of medium displacement of about 6.5 million tons of aircraft carriers, class and the “Kuznetsov” aircraft rather, plans to deploy to the South China Sea and East China Sea.
