China hasn’t fighted for 31 years, need to temper the military exercise

Chinese navy to conduct live fire exercises 300x199 China hasnt fighted for 31 years, need to temper the military exerciseChinese Navy is held in the East China Sea during a routine training exercise with live ammunition, from the news release would attract many speculations. Many foreign media that this is against the United States and Han Huanghai military exercises. Chinese Foreign Ministry made a clarification for this purpose. China engaged in military exercises every time, foreign media likes pondering the political implications behind it has become customary.

Exercise in which countries have some political, but as some foreign media as saying the Chinese military exercises every military force against which inevitably engage in some Tai Xiaoqiao PLA military exercise strategic mind the.

China has not fought 31 years of war material, which in the major countries are rare. Peaceful environment on the development of the country is at a premium, but it is easier to become military combat corrosive. People’s Liberation Army officers and soldiers now are not nearly fought, and after a considerable part of the 80 or 90 after the child. In recent years, despite the People’s Liberation Army’s military equipment is struggling to catch up with Western powers, but the fighting has been some speculation.

There is no battle to fight, a new generation of PLA military exercise as needed to combat the grindstone. Compared with the other military powers, the number of China’s military exercises or fewer, or smaller size, have less confrontational. In the future, these need to be strengthened. China in peace, military exercises will be more permanent basis. This is also no need to fuss about the outside world.

Over the past 30 years, the Chinese people’s sense of security is unprecedented. This in no way means that China can from swords into plowshares. The pressure is still very peaceful. Taiwan has not yet unified, separatists often make trouble, always around the unstable. People in the future if China is able to live in peace, work, make the development of China from destruction, we need not only guardian of the clenched hands of the sword, the sword always need to keep sharp, and this requires constant combat exercise to hone.

Born and raised in the cruel war among the People’s Liberation Army, the military equipment behind by circumstances, by experience, courage, and military intelligence to win the final victory. Environment of peace seems today, but threats to contemporary China in fact more complex and diverse, the PLA’s ability to defend the national security requirements higher.

As a big country, China must maintain a strong military. China has never thought of pursuing a par with the United States military power, but at least sufficient to protect their own national interests. To ensure the combat effectiveness of the PLA engaged in military exercises, no need to hide:. Even in the short term, may be some around the “China threat” sound, but sooner or later the world will understand and accept.

High-tech military exercise. Can not include all the elements of modern warfare can not be more like real war, have direct impact on the effect of exercise. How do the soldiers in actual combat exercises have the same life experiences as of now the People’s Liberation Army is not very easy to do.

Quality in the exercise, the gap between the PLA and the United States and Russia, may not be less than in other military equipment gaps. U.S. military far away in front of its exercise is not only a large scale, wide area, to participate in more than arms, but also often have a forward-looking. If the U.S. military has a space war, huh, network storms exercises. This gap, our military needs to catch up as soon as possible.

China is very concerned about the outside world in the past to improve their military feel, this is the good of the modesty and human performance. However, the discussions and some complained that the outside world does not mean that China is really outrageous, because it was pleasant for China’s military power will always be “too strong.” In this regard, we should have a sober judge.

U.S. think said the Chinese Navy long-range sea-air combat capability maturity

State Foundation on the 29th Chi Kujamestown  commentary said the Chinese navy recently from coastal waters in the annual exercise was held.

U.S. scholars said that the Chinese navy deterrence match the original Japanese Imperial Navy

Chinese navy deterrenceDecember 8 News: According to the Athens-line network 6, citing U.S. Naval War College professor James Holmes of the analysis, since the Cold War, the Pacific region since the end of the pattern of sea power has changed, he arrogantly assume, the Chinese navy to the United States to the challenges posed would be encroaching upon the former Soviet Union and the level of the Imperial Japanese Navy.

Holmes said that the driving force for countries to develop sea power was still on the same – business, trade and naval fleet. As long as the United States is still strong Asia-Pacific region, Hawaii, Washington would have been a bridge leading to this important region. Moreover, there is no doubt that, as an important military base at Pearl Harbor in the U.S. military during the Cold War still like it, play a vital role.

However, since the Cold War, the pattern of the naval forces of transformation has already occurred. From 65 years ago, the Western Pacific, Leyte Gulf’s largest outbreak of World War II, after a sea battle, the U.S. Navy will be committed to developing their own maritime forces. They have the advantage that a navy to ensure a possible outbreak of conflict in the United States to restrict their opponents in action. He arrogantly assume, of which the Chinese navy is most likely to pose similar to the former Soviet Union to the United States Navy and the Japanese Imperial Navy, then the sea has brought challenges for the United States.

Holmes noted that, in this case, the United States must maintain its advantage of high-tech and combat areas. So, in November, the United States is intended to be the rule of the vast ocean alone, “Missouri” HMS (ret.) into dry dock for the necessary repairs. In 1945, the warship has witnessed the end of World War II. “Missouri” HMS is designed to Battle Empire, such as Japan, “Japanese Class” or Nazi Germany, “Bismarck” and other warships. In addition to attack enemy vessels at sea beyond, it almost does not have other functions. However, during World War II, the belligerent is a disgrace that such routine tasks. Later, the aircraft carrier to replace the fleet of warships as the most important one, while the ships are primarily responsible for support missions, the enemy shelled the coastal areas, protecting aircraft against threat of air strikes. In the end, they are finally reduced to the idle stop at the shore level.

Holmes said that now the old functions, but also in the shoulder, the U.S. Navy has also been given new functions, such as the fight against piracy. Moreover, these new functions has also attracted the attention of the outside world. In addition, Holmes also said that he visited Pearl Harbor, when the end of 10, where he saw the Japanese are equipped with the Aegis system Myoko, the ship docked in the port by the same distance from the U.S. are equipped with the Aegis system, “Lake Erie “There is only one terminal cruiser. 2007, “Lake Erie” into the attack on USS Zengyin out of control down a spy satellite with its notoriously. However, observers from other countries, especially China, the U.S. military observers will be interpreted as a move against Washington with the beginning of the Chinese military anti-satellite test conducted by the measures taken.

Japan’s “Myoko” cruiser at Pearl Harbor appeared statement of the contemporary United States naval forces by the existence of two cases. First, if the Navy to reduce the extent of focus on offensive operations, then the right, such as ballistic missile defense and other defense tasks concern rises. The Government of Japan agreed to join the U.S. Navy’s missile defense program, allowing U.S. forces in Japan over the launch of ballistic missiles, but has also agreed to test a nuclear weapon. In this case, the warship as a mobile guard tower can play a role, but also to become an offensive force platform.

Second, the U.S. strategic position in the Pacific began to rely on coalition diplomacy. Nearly a century of time, the U.S. Navy have enjoyed much freedom in East Asia to establish a base rights. In 1898 won the hands of the Philippine Islands from Spain, the United States their formal occupation. However, in 1946, the United States agreed to independence of the Philippines, and in the 20th century and the early 90s in the Philippines closed down the domestic set up base. Thereafter, located at 1400 miles east of the Philippines to Guam, according to the Asian continent has become the latest United States territory.

Holmes added that, in addition to the Philippines, the United States and its other allies in the Asia-Pacific region – Japan, the relationship between the variables have emerged. Out of Japan on the world stage over-confident suspicion, leaders of the Democratic Party of Japan has indicated its intention to stop the deployment to the Indian Ocean naval counter-terrorism. This implies that the Japanese government want to quit the world stage, return since 1945, played the role of a passive defense.

Now, for the U.S. military in a crisis or wartime rent Yokosuka, Sasebo and Kadena and other military bases, will the performance of Tokyo has been quite tolerant. If there are no military installations in the U.S. military stationed in Japan at sea there is support for the U.S. Pacific Fleet in Asian waters of the voice will become negligible. For the purposes of U.S. power projection, Hawaii and Guam will not be much of a role to play. This will have been since the end of World War II the United States benefit from the order of Huashangjuhao sea. Finally, Holmes also warned that Washington must not inadvertently lose their superiority in strength in Asia.

China in the South China Sea, the deployment of anti-ship missile early warning radar

Sea-based early warning radarRecently, the East Asia and Southeast Asia, one of the most influential think-tank, Singapore, Nanyang Technological University, Rajaratnam School of International Studies, published a report entitled “the power of the ever-changing distribution of the South China Sea: the impact of treatment and to avoid conflict,” the report . The report detailed analysis of the South China Sea neighboring countries in recent years, the balance of power changes, claiming that China’s Nansha Islands YONGSHU reefs deployed within a type known as the J-17C radar for the state to provide early warning capacity; still Paracel Islands within the Yongxing Island of the anti-ship cruise missile installations to establish and support China’s cause of fighting naval military operations in the Nansha Islands in the front line post.

Nanhai People’s Liberation Army to deploy J-17C radar warning capabilities to enhance

The report notes that in Asian countries, China’s military power is no doubt among the brightest and best. Although the eighties of the last century, China deeply the pain of budget and isolated, but since the nineties of the last century, China’s military modernization began, the navy to expand the scope of logistics support. Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, the annual report issued in 2007 and even China as Asia’s number one, ranked fourth in the world – after the United States, Britain and France – the country’s arms procurement.

The report said, and now the focus of China’s border defense to switch from the transfer of land and sea combat capability has significantly increased. Downsizing forces on the ground at the same time, China’s naval power projection capabilities have been significantly increased. Their procurement of new weapons systems, adjust the structure of the armed forces, from the Russian destroyers and submarines purchased to improve its South China Sea Fleet’s amphibious warfare capability. The seventies of last century, the South China Sea Fleet is a fleet strength of the weakest, twenty years later, it’s strength even in the absence than other fleets, but also with the other fleet is already flat.

The Chinese Navy is continuing to expand its conventional submarine capabilities (Song-class and Yuan-class, and Kilo-class submarines), and further develop its small-scale nuclear-powered submarines. At present, it has purchased, including Russian-built “modern” class, including a large number of destroyers and frigates. In 2006, the U.S. Defense Department assessment that the Chinese navy has about 75 major surface warships, 55 attack submarines and 50 amphibious ships. In 2009, the U.S. Defense Department assessment that China had about 26 destroyers, 51 frigates, 58 diesel-electric submarines, and eight nuclear-powered submarines.

In addition, the report also said China is also increasing their contribution to the South China Sea the reef, the island of control. It has to consolidate the Navy’s Mischief Reef and other islands in the United States military facilities, equipped with air defense and naval guns, as well as helipads. In addition, China’s Nansha Islands in Yongshu reefs deployed a J-17C radar for the state providing early warning capability. It is reported that China is still within the Yongxing Island Xisha established anti-ship cruise missile installations. The report said, China will Yongxing Island in the Nansha Islands as to support its military operations inside the front post, the island’s runway has been lengthened.

The report notes that the Chinese navy is also in Sanya, Hainan Province, the construction of underground nuclear submarine base. The base can accommodate up to 20 nuclear submarines, aircraft carriers and other power projection vessels, can greatly enhance China’s strategic presence in the South China Sea and the military. This projection of China’s military power or control to the South China Sea area is particularly important in this piece. Territorial disputes with China, the existence of national and Japanese submarine in the South China Sea, China is very concerned about the increased activity, while the Chinese submarine is precisely the increased activity of U.S. naval forces in the region and the existence of a challenge. In addition to the Chinese navy’s operations, there are reports that China is a large-scale construction of new coastal patrol vessels. Related reports pointed out that the class coastal patrol ship equipped by the paramilitary groups, used to patrol the South China Sea.

Report points out that, obviously, China’s military buildup in the South China Sea is not only used to avoid or eliminate use of force (if necessary) any violation of its territorial sovereignty of disputed areas, other push factors include the building of the Chinese Navy to protect China’s maritime security, to ensure that their economic prosperity and energy supply, but to do these things need to protect sea lines of communication in Southeast Asia (the Straits of Malacca and Singapore Strait, the Sunda Strait and the Lombok Strait), and the South China Sea for the transport routes. In the past few years, as China’s crude oil transport vessels rushed to the increase in transportation volume has increased rapidly. Therefore, the South China Sea, where possible outbreak of conflict in the Taiwan Strait, the importance of the public should also be noticed. Of particular note, the Beijing government will now set his sights on a naval blockade strategy, which is intended to limit short-term U.S. military can provide assistance to Taiwan beyond the sea.

The report said, despite the growing Chinese military power, but access to new technology, China still needs some time to these technologies into the army of existing technologies. In addition, China does not have the waters far from land bases within the ongoing operations. Moreover, the Chinese right now do not have the strength of the aircraft carrier battle groups could be projected. However, according to a Chinese senior military officer said the People’s Liberation Army to build a future aircraft carrier. In November 2008, the Chinese Ministry of National Defense Foreign Affairs Office In an interview with Major General Qian Lihua, “Financial Times” interview, said that any of the Navy a big country dreams of one or more of the aircraft carrier has. It is worth noting that, the South China Sea Islands, the majority of islands are too small, can not become a base for further development of naval operations. As a result, control of the South China Sea is China’s sea lines of communication may be advantages of the Asia Pacific region the only way to the sea. Therefore, it should be controlled to produce only limited military zones Keys and control maritime communications lines and different look. Obviously, the latter are more strategic significance.

South China Sea tilt the balance of power is shifting in China

Nevertheless, in order to understand the changes in the South China Sea countries military strength, it is necessary from the relative value of the intentions and the possible role of the armed forces on the evaluation. Compared with the Southeast Asian countries, China does have a significant military advantage, but this advantage is still growing. For example, China has the region’s largest submarines, and fighter force. This is so that the construction of nuclear submarine base on Hainan Island’s move to the response to the South China Sea disputes are becoming very important.

Moreover, the report also said that construction of the South China Sea Fleet is also the focus of attention of other Southeast Asian countries, although the fleet-building process step by step – because the activities of the fleet’s geographical area is the South China Sea should be logical. In those from China in the Spratly Islands in the action feel threatened countries, Vietnam and the Philippines, the feelings of the most obvious. At present, the South China Sea tilt the balance of power is shifting in China, which could have a direct conflict in the South China Sea will have strategic impact: its will to suppress debate on Paracel Islands may also be in the escalating dispute over the Nansha Islands to take action.

Reported that, at this stage, even as Vietnam’s most powerful nation in Southeast Asia and do not have to compete with China’s military strength. At present, insufficient to support Vietnam’s sea power in the South China Sea will. However, since the mid-20th century, 90 years, Vietnam began its navy and air force modernization. This year in April, the Vietnamese government announced that its likely to purchase six Russian-made, “Kilo” class submarine. Moreover, Vietnam is expected to build its naval aviation capabilities to enhance its naval forces. Nevertheless, Vietnam is still the old platform, and the lack of funds and other problems.

However, the report continued to state that the existence of territorial dispute with China in other countries the situation worse than Vietnam. The Philippines, for example, although the Philippine Government’s efforts to modernize its armed forces and upgrade its equipment, but the Philippine naval and air forces are still weak. However, the naval forces in the region of the country’s most ill-conceived course ought to Brunei. To date, the Brunei Government has yet to establish any military presence in the Spratly Islands, nor to any declaration of sovereignty. However, Brunei has also begun to upgrade its military equipment. Finally Malaysian navy construction relatively smoothly. With other Southeast Asian countries, Malaysia is also trying to enhance its naval forces – in September of this year, Malaysia’s purchase of the first ships French “Scorpene” class submarines.

Reported that, in addition to the relative military weakness, the Southeast Asian countries received foreign military aid did not help them balance China’s influence in the South China Sea. In this case, the only counterbalance China’s military capabilities and perhaps only the United States, especially in Japan, Hong Kong, the U.S. Seventh Fleet in Yokosuka. However, the U.S. Government has repeatedly stressed that, with the Philippines in August 30, 1951 signed the “Philippine-US Mutual Defense Treaty” did not involve the sovereignty of the Philippines declared areas. Moreover, although since July 11, 1995 United States and Vietnam established diplomatic ties, bilateral relations have greatly improved, but so far not been in Vietnam and the United States to establish formal or tacit alliance. Moreover, whether or not to establish the actual alliance with Vietnam, Washington has so far remained reluctant involvement in Vietnam’s territorial disputes.

In this regard, the report’s analysis, the United States was reluctant to neighboring South China Sea to provide assistance in these countries not to abandon this strategic area, but because of reluctant involvement in the issue of jurisdiction. Although the United States has been closely following the development of South China Sea, but consistently limit its maintenance in the South China Sea, the extent of freedom of navigation and the Seventh Fleet mobility. Therefore, it is not clear that if the South China Sea conflict, the United States will provide Taiwan or the Philippines, to what extent help.
