Taiwan to build twin-hulled "Stealth" warship to deal with Chinese carrier

Taiwanese version of "aircraft carrier killer"

According to Taiwan media reports, the highly stealth boat, hull design with streamlined and introverted, anti-radar use of steel materials, special coatings and stealth new propeller noise reduction. As a result of catamaran hull, and thus highly mobile, fast evacuation of wartime deployment, flexible, fast, and concealment and other notable features, especially for offshore covert assault operations. In addition, the class ship strike capability in addition to the powerful, the boats on fire in self-defense configuration is also true that in the case of attack, the implementation of self-defense operations, which are strong survive.

From Taiwan to disclose information to analysis, we determine the type of patrol vessels of the basic properties: the captain may exceed 40 meters, 20 meters wide ship, the standard displacement of 500 tons, 600 tons full load displacement, the maximum speed of about 32 nautical miles / hour, endurance of about 12 days. The ship first dual hull design, the key consideration of the overall stealth performance, and thus smooth the shape looks simple, but the entire hull structure to diamond-shaped reflection of electromagnetic waves, in addition to highlighting the stern near Artillery, almost no other apparent radar reflector. Stealth effect from the ship's entire run, expected to close one of its radar reflection area of ​​dozens of tons of small boats, a good stealth effect.

Pictures from the ship's computer analysis, the layout and weapon configuration is as follows: bow before the deck is a stealth performance of 76 mm with "Otto" rapid-fire guns. Gun is driving behind the control room, the room was swept top is shaped three semi-enclosed mast structure, the above electronic equipment is also very simple, there are only placed a "Sea Tiger" on the sea-surveillance radar, a search / fire control radar, and other small electronic devices. Behind the cab is the main battle ship weapons - the two "Hsiung Feng -2" and "Treasures -3" supersonic anti-ship missiles. These missile launchers hidden in the hull of the two large central shutter door after the shielding windows, and these shield in the opened window after discharge will be able to launch the missile in the missile plume, will be able to improve the missile boats in the closed the stealth. Ship self-defense system is a 20 mm 6 "Phalanx" near Artillery, mainly used to intercept incoming aerial targets. In addition, electronic equipment and is expected to ship combat system represents the best current level of naval units, in addition to the radar, but also may include research and development of Taiwan Navy ship with "Great" system, "Sea Dart" ship subsystems and NGPS echolocation system.

To get big with small naval strategy

Taiwan Navy's combat vessels Zengyin large number of small and medium anti-ship missiles and equipped with the "distinguished" a moment, but the procurement of foreign technology are imitated. After the pursuit of the so-called large-scale, missiles, Taiwan's navy was to give up the development of small and medium sized ships, instead of imitation through the introduction of technology and medium-sized surface ships. Replacement of political parties in Taiwan after the Nationalist government came to power again, vowed to build a small but excellent, small but strong defense force, for which Taiwan is also offensive defense strategy of active defense adjusted, Taiwan's navy also took the opportunity once again to thousands of tons as a priority the development of small and medium sized vessels, accelerate the development of new small and medium sized ships.

In recent years, positive developments in China's large and very large naval naval force is toward large-scale surface warships, missiles, information technology, carriers of the aspects of development, the strength of the rejection of Taiwan has been far behind. However, most of them military, alarmed by the Taiwan side, the mainland military has abandoned its offshore defense strategy, highlighting the power of the ocean to build a "blue water" navy, and its modern aircraft carrier battle groups have been vividly want out which is Taiwan's most feared encirclement of the critical situation has been surrounded. If the mainland's military containment in the small island of Taiwan, Taiwan will face more active defense is broken, stretched, overwhelmed by the complexity of the situation, but the island has no real defense in depth, the focus of all of its goals will be destroyed at any risk of facing the Council, basically no room for maneuver.

If Taiwan through efforts to develop the power to destroy the aircraft carrier, they can tear at a critical time to escape the hole, but also to some extent encouraged by the Taiwan military's combat effectiveness. Can be assumed that Taiwan's large surface ships and limited underwater attack force in the large armed forces in joint blockade, it is very likely not be separated from the Air Force's protective circle the island, even as the focus of the beginning of the war targets, its survival into question. The new development of the "fast sea" anti-aircraft program catamaran patrol vessels, they can use their small size and good performance characteristics of stealth aircraft carrier battle groups close to the mainland, and then rely on the ships are equipped with the "Hsiung Feng -3-type" missile about 300 km range, coupled with its use of the supersonic ramjet engine, the mainland carrier battle group is difficult to intercept, not to mention the type of ship would certainly take more than a saturation attack missiles volley tactics, and thus a great chance of successful attack is bound to will cause the Navy's special attention to the mainland.

According to Agence France-Presse reported that a senior official of Taiwan's military said 18 of Taiwan began in 2012 a new catamaran equipped with guided missiles stealth warship, naval forces to respond to the development of the mainland. Allegedly, this stealth missile boats are expected to be in the mainland after the first aircraft carrier battle groups to join Taiwan's navy service.

Currently, "Taiwan's navy" to "fast sea" as the codename for the ship.

Aircraft carrier is the most dangerous man-made environment in the world

Every 37 seconds in the mobile deck

A take-off or landing

3 seconds catapult

Accelerate from zero to 256 km per hour

Aircraft carrier deck hand is a dangerous profession. High-speed aircraft landed on the ground, risk has been great, but to land on an aircraft carrier deck, the deck of the aircraft carrier's pilots and ground crew for the more dangerous. The deck of an aircraft carrier, is considered the most dangerous in the world of 18,000 square meters. This record is dangerous moment on the U.S. aircraft carrier.

Every 37 seconds in the mobile deck

A take-off or landing

Jet every 37 seconds, it is necessary in the mobile carrier 48 km per hour on the deck or landing time. This is a challenge for pilots, while the crew on deck, they also face great danger.

Each aircraft carrier has about 5,000 people, who are responsible for ensuring the safety and aircraft carriers and aircraft maintenance.

In 1994, an American driving a pilot called "Tom Kite," the F-14 aircraft crashed into the Pacific Ocean. The plane lost control, the pilot in order not to hit aircraft, crashed into the sea, he saved many lives on the deck.

3 seconds to catapult from zero to 256 km per hour

In order to facilitate the identification of their respective responsibilities and the dangers they may face, the crew were wearing the clothes of various colors. Yellow shirt with the crew in charge of aircraft and hangar deck of all movement. Tottenham captain Wales on the aircraft carrier, said: "We are very close from the aircraft to move the aircraft in the next, engines, vents, air vents, etc. in the present, the slightest mistake will hurt.

Maintenance of aircraft catapult is a green shirt crew duties. Into the air to the aircraft, aircraft catapult to the aircraft speed of 3 seconds to accelerate from zero speed to 256 km per hour. Parked on the deck of the aircraft in the full horsepower engine, a green shirt the crew to climb the aircraft below, check the gear is solid. Once a fault or equipment failure, their life was in danger at any time.

Carrier is the world's most dangerous man-made environment

The crew stood on the deck is also a risk. The mouth of the powerful jet exhaust heat can also overturned the crew on deck. Carrier is the world's most dangerous man-made environment.

Greater risk at night than during the day. Darkness enveloped the aircraft carrier, risk is more unpredictable, the crew but also with the fatigue resistance. Enough sleep may make people feel very tired, this time landing on the deck to be very dangerous, you have to concentrate, carefully.

On the deck, the crew must be careful with each other to see some of the crew to do some things not appropriate to be approached to stop him.

Varyag aircraft carrier has been equipped new engine from Ukraine

A series of cooperation around aircraft carrier has been on between China, Russia and Ukraine.

Satellite photos show that China in the Yellow Sea Huludao a new aircraft carrier pilot training center, and refers to its similarity with the training center in Ukraine.

December 8, 2008, U.S. strategic network quoted Ukraine "Nitka" Training Centre (solely on the aircraft carrier-based aircraft sliding leaps down training) sources as saying that the center is helping to train carrier pilots in China.

The article said that China was the first time in October 2006 sent by the Navy deputy commander, led a large army on behalf of the group, visited the port city of Odessa and Wunan Sevastopol naval aviation training centers, and at the Crimean Peninsula The "Nitka" training center.

During the visit, the two sides also discussed Ukraine Uganda to help train China's naval air force units and the feasibility of the training carrier pilots. Since then, the Chinese engineers, pilots, the Navy began to frequent visits of technical experts, "Nitka" training base.

And last August, in order to use Google Earth to expose national defense facilities, known for "image intelligence" website published a piece of Google Earth satellite photos, displayed in Shaanxi Yanliang airport a treaty shed, 300 meters short track, the end is an upward tilt of the ramp.

Web site highlighted in the former Soviet Navy in the Crimean naval aviation training base, there are very similar facilities to enable pilots to practice aircraft carrier deck off the sliding hop.

China purchased 4 sets of arresting System, 2 sets of them for two domestic aircraft carriers

According to reports, in particular, is of interest to the outside world in 2008, purchased from the Ukraine, 4 sets of the original plan for the "Varyag" number and the Russian Navy, "Admiral Kuznetsov"aircraft carrier's arresting system.

 The system is used with the carrier aircraft's tail hook to ensure that aircraft can safely land at the rear of the aircraft carrier deck.

 French "aerospace services " website, China blocked access to the 4 sets of the system, a set installed in the "Varyag" No, the second for Wuhan's "aircraft carrier on land"test system.

 The remaining two sets of retaining system may be used for two aircraft carriers, "the construction of the two carriers have been cutting the steel plate is completed. "

 "Kanwa Defense Review" believes that aircraft carrier Varyag will be used for carrier-based aviation training in China, China will soon build another shipyard in Shanghai, with the level of two aircraft carrier.

 "aerospace services " also said that China may follow up with more efficient aircraft carrier catapult take-off mode.

Chinese Navy aircraft carrier 081 exposure: Quest Jiangnan Shipyard

Reporters aboard the tug by a shipyard on Changxing Island pier. Crane saw the bright red eye-catching in the blue sky, the number of vessels in dry dock ship is about to complete the installation of 30 million tons, speaking in various accents of the tens of thousands of skilled workers busy, and a dozen countries from the shipbuilding engineers together with the construction of China's marine equipment industry dream. This played a builder for the auspicious name ─ ─ Jiangnan Changxing. "Big ship in the country," the dream is about to set sail in this.


Set foot on Changxing Island, a huge dry dock in tens of meters away, a Hebei Ocean Shipping Company (HOSCO) the construction of the "great number of Chinese" 30-ton VLCC (very large oil tankers) is nearly completed, white, blue and brown three great color on islands in the vast hull is very eye-catching. At this point, a helicopter flying overhead, a roar swept low altitude.


Conversation with an engineer to know the scene, most of the work of Jiangnan Changxing base of engineering and management personnel, are on Monday morning on the island by boat from the city on Friday and back to urban areas over the weekend. Working on the construction of living on the island dedicated staff of apartment, "life is more boring, except work."


Third line troops stationed there to defend


In the Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Base, from west to east parallel with the three is called "shipbuilding production line" of the project base, respectively, in the boat by the Group in Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding, Hudong Shipyard, Jiangnan Shipyard construction and development of three companies ─ ─ The most west line of the main building One VLCC and VLOC (very large ore carriers), is responsible for the Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding; the middle of the second line the main construction of large container ships with high added value, is responsible for the Hudong ; the third line east of the most mysterious, the Jiangnan Shipyard responsible for major construction of military ships.


The engineer said, the shipbuilding industry is related to confidential business and technical control, it was very tight security work. "One line, second line although a number of security personnel, but in fact all businesses to employ their own security from the community. Third line is a big difference, there are special forces stationed to defend, but more recently many security personnel, In the third line around the layout of the close of the 'mobile posts', we have seen. "


It is noteworthy that in these three "shipbuilding line" between the original concrete road with a wide phase throughout, the apartment is the only way for all employees go. However, according to the island's engineer said, "After March of this year, this road would not let go, because the 'third line' where the road closure, and we can only pass back to the dorm after work."


Reporters on the island a large shipyard, "Welding Workshop" in seeing that here with the auto plant assembly line is very similar, but definitely have a variety of devices shipyard as "Transformers," giant of the same. Traditional shipbuilding welding hammer plus different modes, where workers are in the hands of the "tool" is a computer keyboard and touch-control screen.


In this workshop, a Baosteel produced about 10 m × 3 m of marine steel plate, through the gantry into the production line, will be imported from Japan advanced CNC forming welding welding machine bed as a whole, the whole process only see a small group of bright blue sparks, smoke, and welding slag will be synchronized sucked. Subsequently, the 10 cm thick steel plate and the plasma produced by the Shanghai CNC welding machine cut into the required shape overall, and then implemented by the skilled workers component of precision welding and grinding. Wait until the off-line, the original flat plate has been processed into various shapes of the "ship modules." Before being carried to the dry dock in the assembly. The whole process as clear as building blocks.


Reporter noted that the workshop are set on each column of the propaganda slogans. More content to promote safety, encourage professionalism of the content. In the middle of a workshop the slogan attracting a lot of imagination ─ ─ screen, blue color of the sea, vast and mostly, the Chinese navy three active the-art guided missile destroyer 168,169,171 through the waves, in a row towards the front. Banner to the top, then use "My quality is in China" in large letters point to understand the topic.


168,169,171 ranked three new ships, "Jiangnan Four Swordsmen" are single-handedly built by the Jiangnan Shipyard, on behalf of the current Chinese warships made the highest standards. Among them, the Jiangnan plant began construction in 2000, launched in May 2002 with the Mainland first performance of 7000-ton 052B stealth missile destroyer "Guangzhou No.", hull number is 168; later, the same type of ship in the second ship " Wuhan No. "was launched in January 2003, hull number was 169. Two ships were now become the military, attachment of the South China Sea Fleet.


Crane high ground against East Point


The banner at the site location of the most significant 171-ship "Haikou No." is the name of the 052C-type "Chinese Aegis destroyers." The ship is equipped similar to the U.S. "Aegis" system, phased array radar, air defense missile destroyers are. The first ship, hull number 170, "Lanzhou number" in April 2003 was also located in the Huangpu River in the Lupu Bridge in the southern waters of the water plant site; the second 171-ship fleet, "No sea" is in October 2003 launched the same site, the current also have prepared Ru Nanhai Fleet.


Painting workshop in the modern "military slogan," inadvertently metaphor that "the Chinese warships made in China," the ambition, I believe, inspired the production line every employee.


Was removed at the press of a few tens of meters shipbuilding base climbed high before 600 ton gantry crane has been a stern warning, "Crane is the commanding heights of the shipbuilding base, the above observation is strictly prohibited and shooting to the east." Subsequently, an internal staff also follow along with this reporter on the gantry crane, and full monitoring. Conversation, the officer also admitted: "East is the third line, is the military, take pictures, then will be very troublesome."


According to him, "Whenever third line out or launching a boat, or even someone with a telescope can see the other side alert lookout on all sides, even if it is found toward the third line was taken in the direction or spy, will have been sudden and immediate halt. Most recently, this tension is more concentrated, and the factory's own staff is also very attention to this point, so as not to get into unnecessary trouble. "

 
To avoid satellite detection outdoor Shipbuilding


Reporter then also noted that with the One line, second line is different, Line area and is not set 600 tons of red flags of gantry crane, replaced by rows of giant blue and white end to end plant, currently as about ten stories tall enough to accommodate ton ship construction. And I, II although there are two lines of several such plants, but obviously a lot to be low. Consult relevant personnel informed by those vessels indoor plant assembly plant, modular segmented ship construction, assembly, can be in this huge plant in quietly completed, the general production of military shipyards are using this layout, in order to avoid being outdoors ship satellite or other equipment and personnel investigations.


"Finally, a gantry crane from the east to the area are the third line, tall gantry cranes have become a dividing point. In fact, the industry will understand at a glance, because the military, civilian shipyard layout is different."

It is understood, May 22, 2007, Line ─ first ship built for the Norwegian company Stenersen 1.64 million tons of refined oil / chemical tanker successfully launched. 210 meters long, 30 meters wide, 4.5 meters high the great "boat lift buoyancy tank" hold up the ship, slowly moved into the artificial basin. Then after drainage, caissons and other multi-channel operation, the end firmly by the new coat ship pier.


It is worth noting that if the construction of aircraft carriers, third line by "floating boxes into the water technology" construction of civilian ships, aircraft carriers can be built and launched as the next rehearsal process. Reporters at the scene to see those blue and white giant assembly plant in the role of the ship, and not self evident.

 
It even more mysterious military tower


Jiangnan Changxing base of the most compelling devices in addition to the giant gantry crane of 600 tons on a few lines in the vicinity of a tower One ─ ─ whole steel tower about 100 meters, the tower has a large circular electronic equipment , surrounded by the rules of the cubes. Equipment to the top in this round antenna also has a similar frame structure, the tower is equipped with equipment room under the tower.


On-site staff, who declined to be named, told reporters, "While the tower Number One in the production line of civilian areas, but it is a military tower, and climbing near absolute prohibition. It is said that its role is to ship, etc. positioning and navigation. "

University of Kentucky researcher Robert national security. Law Ray recent "American Prospects" website wrote that, China and Brazil has made use of Brazil, "Sao Paulo number" carrier-based aircraft to train pilots in China reached an agreement.


Aircraft carrier pilot training takes a long time to master. From the familiar to the Brazilian military aircraft and expertise in terms of cooperation with Brazil, China can provide a shortcut to access relevant training.


Robert pointed out that China and Pakistan agreed on the aircraft carrier training is a mutually beneficial agreement: access to relevant training in China, while Brazil won a reputation, and consolidating its position as a global force strength.


Alleged that the agreement is Brazilian President Lula visited China in May, China and Pakistan in closed session as part of the question. The Brazilian Defense Minister Nelson. Qiu Bin will visit China in September this year, is expected to be finalized by then some of the details between the two countries.

The lastest and clearest pictures of China "Kuznetsov" aircraft carrier exposured

From China Military Report

China develops combination attack system of missiles and submarines to resist U.S. aircraft carriers

China's Dongfeng-21D anti-ship missile is an important part of "Asymmetric advantage"

In the late 19th early 20th century, the United States from England to win the hands of "maritime hegemony" started gradually laying the foundation for a superpower, the United States Navy on the development of other countries has been alert. U.S. Navy chief of operations Jialilafu Head General recently said that the Chinese Navy began to appear in more and more distant from local waters, but its intention "opaque", the United States must be great concern. In addition, the U.S. Navy retired generals and experts also said that the Chinese navy is developing anti-ship ballistic missile and submarine forces, the U.S. aircraft carrier to form the "asymmetric advantages."

"Cooperation with the Chinese navy is very important"


According to Agence France-Presse reported on July 21, is fighting the French minister to visit the United States Navy Admiral Roughead, said: "The Chinese navy has already begun farther and farther away from the local waters, and to develop a very, very good ability to ensure that the resources needed economic growth, the supply of ... ... the development of cooperative relations with the Chinese navy is very important, because China's expanding navy military's intention was 'opaque' of. "

AP commented on this, as chief of naval operations in the Bluff Head openly discuss China's naval development, making the outside world influence on the Chinese navy great surprise. Roughead was the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet commander, visited China many times. His argument that within the U.S. Navy has been the development of China's naval forces concerned. This year in May, U.S. Pacific Commander Admiral Willard accepted in Singapore, "Straits Times" interview, said that China Navy as the main platform is to create "anti-intervention" capability and force projection capabilities Yuan Cheng, look not a defensive nature. "Straits Times" said that in the long run, the U.S. Pacific Command is the biggest challenge facing China. According to the U.S. Navy predicted that by 2020 China will "blue water navy," which will affect the U.S. security guarantee in the region.


The U.S. aircraft carrier "synthetic killer"


Looking at the world's naval forces, both of large aircraft carriers, supplemented by a large number of nuclear submarines in the world controlled the navy, such as the U.S. Navy; there to cruisers, supplemented by large aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines, surface combat troops based Navy global challenges such as the Russian Navy; also to the core carrier, destroyer escort, a Navy nuclear submarine based global presence, such as France and Britain; In addition, a large destroyer as the core, a considerable number of conventional submarines, the Navy known as the world mobilized type , including Japan, Germany and the Netherlands. Famous of these long years of ocean-going navy, the Chinese navy blue water is just beginning to be widely debated.

U.S. Navy expert Doctor Arthur Waldron in April by the United Kingdom, "Jane's Defense" magazine interview that the Chinese navy is rapidly growing, strategic nuclear submarines capable of launching ballistic missiles and a variety of large conventional submarine service; advanced destroyer equipped with Russian-made supersonic antiship cruise missiles, can deal with the U.S. aircraft carrier; the construction of a new aircraft carrier became the target of China ... ... From the equipment perspective, the Chinese Navy has started among the ranks of world-class. Focus on the development of submarine forces, the Chinese side for the U.S. Navy build "asymmetric advantage" an important part, with the east-21D anti-ship ballistic missile development, the combination of ballistic missile submarines and will become the U.S. carrier's "synthetic killer . "

July 19, the U.S. "Stars and Stripes newspaper," said China's Dongfeng-21D anti-ship missile in service soon, the U.S. Navy's Seventh Fleet Commander Vice-Admiral John Bird, said openly: "We are very much the Chinese Navy is purchasing this offensive weapons and are worried. "

"The Chinese Navy is still young"


Too much emphasis on the development of China and the threat of new equipment compared to the U.S. Navy has retired U.S. generals that the Chinese navy in the software and lack of being in the "young" stage. United States, "Naval War College Review" magazine published in June number retired U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Eric McWhirter Vadon article that is only equipped with more advanced operations platform, not to fight the Chinese Navy will create a truly modern force . China's current naval operations in the use of these platforms are not mature, especially in command and control, multi-arms coordination, and intelligence, reconnaissance, surveillance, and so flawed. These are the Navy's combat capability of the "double", and the U.S. Navy in the field of absolute advantage, the Chinese navy still a big gap.

Once the aircraft carrier built: China can not stop foreign expansion

Subject: military service in politics and political conflict affecting Sino-US military conflict. Political division of spheres of influence, only aircraft carrier operations space!
First, China needs aircraft carriers

Skip this part, China is facing the South China Sea, the East China Sea, the Taiwan issue, asked the sea in the north has not stopped the problem before, definitely keep up distant future Russian naval confrontation

Second, China's marine environment

China is facing the ocean situation more complicated. North of Russia and Japan, sea power is still relatively strong, the direction of the East China Sea, unworthy descendants again in frustration, the South China Sea and comparison of chaos, though are some small, but very troublesome, the most trouble here in Singapore and the kangaroo country, in addition, direction in India is difficult!

Overall, China is facing the marine environment is not optimistic, for Japan and South Korea Australia India new to the existing military power of China, against an estimate is also OK, but it is almost impossible to be completely avoided, unless deployed nuclear weapons!

Faced with this problem, we can do is disintegrating, can not completely isolated among themselves - not only must not allow these countries to unite against China.

Therefore, Japan and South Korea as the U.S. core henchman, it is difficult to draw, only to combat the main draw supplemented; Kangaroo country into the United States to win over too soon, so tarlac combined cases from iron ore, for Kangaroo Country Leadership can see some clues; for India Asan, first as a South Asian country, it is certainly not willing to do the United States younger brother, followed by a close neighbor of China, it certainly can not play too far. Therefore, both sides try to put aside the conflict, which is a very wise choice, so rope in India than it runs out better for us! For Singapore, direct disregard of, either as the point of Malacca, which are not really even a P. In future, we open up the land-based canal, will no longer was concerned about the grandson of country!

Third, the U.S. Pacific forces

The power of the United States in the Asia-Pacific is estimated that many people should be more familiar than I, so only a brief introduction.

Seventh Fleet

Patrol area includes the Western Pacific, Indian Ocean and the Arabian coast, by the International Date Line until the east coast of Africa, north to the Kuril Islands, south to Antarctica. Combat area, including China, Japan, India, Australia and the ASEAN countries and regions, involving as many as 2.5 billion population. The fleet's basic mission is to protect the western Pacific and Indian Ocean sea lines of communication, maintaining the United States and its allies in the interests of the Asia-Pacific region, showing the power to contain regional power. Also, once the outbreak of war, should be to respond quickly, and the United States by land, air and joint operations with allied forces, to ensure the win the war.

Fleet weapons and equipment including: 45 various types of warships, 180 aircraft of various types, which ships 18 Permanent total displacement of about 20 tons, a Carrier Air Wing, a Marine expeditionary unit.

Third Fleet

Third Fleet deployed in the U.S. West Coast, the scope of activities for the East Pacific and Central Pacific Ocean, the Arctic Ocean that is north, south to Antarctica, the East from the U.S. West Coast, west to longitude 160 degrees, with a total area of approximately 50 million square miles. Headquartered in San Diego, California United States Naval Air Station North Island, the first aircraft carrier stationed there brigade combat missions for the East Pacific region, support the fifth, sixth and seventh fleet operations.

Fourth, China's aircraft carrier problem
China now known, estimates can be used, or as a research aircraft carrier - database on the 2nd ship - Kuznetsov

Therefore, I make three assumptions: First, Kuznetsov aircraft carrier battle as it is assumed, bickering own to carry, I do not respond; Second, assuming that the new China-made aircraft carrier, quantity, or one or 2, (holiday reasons), bickering is not welcome; three new office in China with Kuznetsov aircraft carrier generally similar to that Ski Jump, 6 to 8 tons.

Fifth, China's aircraft carrier timetable

Bedding above for so long, mainly to be a problem - the problem is that the Asia-Pacific command of the sea!

Why raise this issue, first of all, the aircraft carrier as a large ship, not a "coastal defense" thing, if carried out to take the aircraft carrier patrolling the coastline, would not people recalls Li Mao; 2, as offensive weapons, deployed in any place will cause great controversy.

Therefore, the aircraft carrier belonging to the fleet - personal guess, tile grid is not as good training to see if the carrier is not deployed in the North Sea Fleet - a purely personal guess! (Of course, the possibility of deployment in the North Sea Fleet also discussed below)

East China Sea Fleet - the face of Japan and South Korea to deter the Taiwan Strait

South China Sea Fleet - put down the Southern Fan, containing the US-Japan

Therefore, whether in the East China Sea or the South China Sea, are inevitably met with the U.S. Pacific Fleet, for the control of the sea is bound to re-divide the region, although the Pacific is the first ocean, but only put the two carriers is very difficult to land.

Actual control of U.S. Pacific Fleet is now fully approaching China's land area, and even intrinsically Chinese territorial waters, exclusive economic zone which are advanced, not to mention the high seas outside the exclusion zone. As discussed above, the Chinese aircraft carrier would not just cruise in the Chinese territorial sea, is bound to the high seas to protect China's territorial waters and airspace within the territory!

So, the question arises, the first U.S. strategic space to narrow, which is the seventh Pacific Third Fleet covered round the situation to change in the direction of East Asia, at least to cut an area to the Chinese management; Second, China's territorial waters and exclusive areas carrier will be completely closed up, then outsiders will be adopted here when the Chinese people at gunpoint in walking, such as Japan, South China Sea channel. Third, the Taiwan issue will be a pressing issue, regardless of the southeast, the aircraft carrier will definitely walk away from eastern Taiwan, Taiwan will be completely in a state of siege.

6, the results of Sino-US guessing game

Personally believe that U.S. pressure on China strategy has been to limit, in terms of geographical or political. The United States can no longer limit the performance of further oppression, or means of war, can be seen from this exercise, the red line is untouchable, and second, has been unable to pressure China, the United States, China, exert its utmost to sea.

Guess one, the United States will be designated for a high seas area of China, individual speculation in the South direction, as here, bigger, and the United States the opportunity to meet relatively small fleet, is China Zhuantonghaiyu, Shuangfang heart be acceptable, so in South Asia the United States Shi Li will Keneng is the first from Asia's

Guess 2, East direction of the United States temporarily would not compromise, will be the United States and Japan navy hybrid situation, but China will increase the scope of activities, facts have in front of

Guess three, to solve the Taiwan issue will be whether the U.S. forces pulled an important turning point in Northeast Asia

Guess four, China is likely to weaken their own in South America from the forces of the West Bank in exchange for the expansion of the Pacific

American Game in the Pacific - in a word, division sites struggle!

I personally think that - the carrier's schedule is the expulsion of U.S. forces in the timetable, we are not worried about equipment, but the strength of East Asia, we are fully capable of controlling the day is when the aircraft carrier out of the mountains!

Destroyer made in the non-stop, planes in flight, is also launching a nuclear submarine, aircraft carrier ready, China - What you ready? ? ? ?

VII Conclusion

The main meaning of this is that the emergence of aircraft carriers is to grab a piece of meat in the mouth the United States, the key is the U.S. willing to not let go of the issue, and now American game in a stalemate, the Pacific West Coast, the east wind prevailing over the west or the east wind prevails over the west wind are hard to say things!

But one thing has been very clear that China's national strength in the constant upgrading of China's foreign expansion is not stopped. Therefore, the end of the Sino-US political struggle, the day of political compromise, may be caused when the aircraft carrier.

Three elements to determine the intention of the "aircraft carrier-style building" constructed in Wuhan, China

The "aircraft carrier-style building" appeared recently in Wuhan, China.

Recently posted on the website a domestic group of pictures, Wuhan now has a mysterious sliding off the deck Yue Shi. Yesterday, a reporter went to inquire about the site, Sure enough in Wuhan, "China Ship Design and Research Center" New Area, looked far from the true carrier does have the size and construction in progress is almost exactly the same decoration. Architecture has a carrier and the "Varyag" was similar to the flight deck and the bridge slip Yue Shi. Building 2 has been wrapped at the top of parked aircraft to see the model or the real aircraft is not clear. Carrier-type architecture are clearly intended for office use, two-story cement structure, building on the ground, allegedly part of the has just opened.

Well, this is located in the "China Ship Design Research Center, New District" aircraft carrier construction exactly what to do with it? Is just an image exactly like office space or some other purpose? What is the meaning lie?

In fact, want to know the real purpose of this building can be observed two things can be essential to determine their purpose, that is, "observed the location and direction of the building is located in the recurrent wind farm wind" and "the size of the length of the runway."

This is because, at sea, if the sliding Yueshi taken off the aircraft carrier as much as possible we should let the high-speed upwind progress, so that the aircraft take-off to achieve the basic take-off conditions (by the way, the aircraft's landing also need to against the wind, but the aircraft carrier The speed requirements can be lower). In general, the land wind farm of wind at sea will be relatively much smaller, which in itself would be restrict the aircraft to take off, if the aircraft would hope in those wind conditions to take off, we need to extend the runway distance, the minimum requirements to achieve short takeoff, Therefore, the need to lengthen the runway, which naturally is to determine the true purpose of the building to another powerful criterion. Only these two points are equipped with aircraft taking off and landing in order to achieve the basic minimum safety requirements. After all, for our aircraft carriers, planes also can not do super-short takeoff and level of technology.

In addition, the aircraft can be judged by sliding one end of the flying leaps of about one kilometer to whether there are other buildings, including homes, if the building used for aircraft training in front of its take-off must be a clearance and net places, the reason is very simple.

If you have the above three factors, we can determine the building to bring the real subjects of the land an aircraft carrier flight integrated training center. In fact, China's carrier-based pilots do not suffer from their own training centers have traveled to Ukraine, so this really is our training center of the urgent need.

If you do not have, then, because the building belongs to the "China Ship Design and Research Center" of all, as a scientific research institutes, in accordance with the division of labor in terms of ships belonging to the Institute to use, and with no affiliation with the Air Force flight test units. Therefore, this building may be more of a "China Ship Design and Research Center" is "training center" belongs to a "simulated training center" most likely, that is, 4D, and virtual reality based on network technology, "full simulation of an aircraft carrier full - size of land training simulators, "including the construction on the aircraft are aircraft simulators. Through this center to realize the captain and crew, the pilot simulation training to achieve compatibility of all system personnel training for basic work. Exactly what to do, we'll see.

Chinese military experts said technology and money are not problems with China to build aircraft carrier

"Sino-US military relation is in the time to eliminate misunderstanding and enhance mutual trust, the stage to move forward. Sino-US military relation should be the pillar of relations between the two countries, but it is a short board of a wooden barrel now."

Chinese military scholars said that China needs not only to build an aircraft carrier, but may.Now only be determined.

Visiting the United States, China's well-known military expert Peng Guangqian Oriental Morning Post in an exclusive interview with special correspondent, said that China has more than 18,000 km coastline, more than 300 million square kilometers of maritime territory, with China opening up, China's naval modernization on the strength to defend maritime rights and interests of the increasingly heavy task, so there is a need in China to build aircraft carriers.

Secondly, Peng him that China is now also possible to build an aircraft carrier. He said: "to build an aircraft carrier is not a problem technically, the money is not a problem, the problem is resolved. This is not the position has? Of us sooner or later there will be."

As for China to build aircraft carrier will be determined will not be announced for the first time, Peng Guangqian that China need not be a show of force.

Peng Guangqian retired People's Liberation Army Major General of the China Policy Research Policy Committee of the National Security Council Deputy Secretary-General.

Turning to the recent US-China confrontation between vessels at sea, Peng Guangqian pointed out that other countries in the exclusive economic zone, foreign vessels have the right course, but must be for peaceful purposes, it is necessary to respect the coast of the country's sovereignty and the law, and U.S. military vessels survey vessels, the purpose is not simply.

Peng him that, in July the upcoming Sino-US maritime military security consultations to formulate rules of conduct at least, the should not have to have to make it clear. He said that since China and the United States who can not do no one, no one who is not the elimination of, the interests of interdependence, we must begin by completely out of the Cold War years, from zero and towards a win-win situation, and enhance mutual trust, the only way to solve the problem fundamental way.

Peng Guangqian said that the Sino-US military relations are in the elimination of misunderstanding and enhance mutual trust, the stage to move forward. He pointed out that Sino-US military relations in other fields behind the relationship between China and the United States is lagging behind us in the interest of an objective need. Sino-US military relations should be the pillars of relations between the two countries, but there is a short barrel plate. Something between the two countries, military relations between the cooling down soon, is getting better and better relations between the two countries, military relations between the last heat, and that relations between the two armies is not stable.

Sino-US defense just dialogue held in Beijing, the United States to establish a new US-China military relations framework. Peng him that the new framework should be to strengthen mutual trust, understand each other's core interests and security concerns.

Peng Guangqian said that from the general direction of view, Sino-US military relations will be better because the place where the common interests. He said: "I should be optimistic about the camp, which is the trend of the times."

China's first aircraft carrier base strictly close

Shanghai Changxing Island Shipbuilding Base

Route within the plant and dock gantry

Some foreign media said a few days ago, China's first aircraft carrier in the Jiangnan Shipyard in Shanghai on the 3rd of the Changxing Shipbuilding Base dock construction, to make this small island has been uninhabited added a bit mysterious. A matter of days, a large number of media, military enthusiasts and people are casting their eyes on the Changxing Island. If the rumor about whether China's aircraft carrier plans to start quietly in the island? Media on the 7th to find out the Jiangnan Shipyard, the recent discovery of the security zone than the plant before the close, almost "three-step one post", and opened a lot of security personnel patrol the area to inspect the factory.

"Hong Kong's Wen Wei Po" reported that "want to go to military bases is also a person to gather intelligence," to hear that journalists want to speak on the 3rd dock Jiangnan Shipyard, the family gathered at the Ferry Terminal Changxing Ma taxi drivers face immediately exposed on some strange smile, but also with each other using a dialect joke started.

Islanders known "military bases"

Islanders told reporters that since May, there have been several domestic and foreign media to a dock on the 3rd. Each of the residents are well aware that in the Changxing Shipbuilding Base from west to east with three of the "shipbuilding production line" in a most mysterious "dock Route", is located in the gantry at the end of bright red. Jiangnan Shipyard, where it is mainly used for the construction of the local military ships.

Armed police guard all entrances

Islanders also said that security on the 3rd dock has always been closely than the other two docks, in March this year, even the three shipbuilding production line of a cement between the main road has been sealed, was that the staff will return to quarters to rest by the road, but now they can only take a detour. Jiangnan Shipyard, said a staff member, it is better to dock with the outside world on the 3rd to separate. Originally from that road can quickly reach the next Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding Group, and now all of the entrances and exits are armed police guard.

A driver on the island are memories of the past, the Jiangnan Shipyard staff take a taxi from the terminal directly to the living quarters downstairs area. However, from May 1 this year, starting in front of everyone in the plant must get off, walk into the. Foreign vehicles will not be allowed to enter.

The number of Chinese and foreign media were refused entry

The media then by car to the mouth of the residents "on the 4th door," This is the Changxing Shipbuilding Base as military products and civilian products line. Two armed police guards armed to  the door, there are a number of security checks and out of pedestrians in the vehicle passes. Media was removed after a detour into the living areas of the factory, which saw far on both rows of blue and white-phase giant plant. Plants with high and low, up to a dozen high floors, low and only two three-story - this is the mysterious eyes of foreign media on the 3rd dock.

A closed two plants, the other side is open-style, on both sides of the wall there are open-shaped ventilation window blinds to keep the air flow and block the line of sight to outsiders. 3 dock in the roof in a unique, high-altitude satellites also can be avoided by the theft of secrets or other equipment. Although the weekend, the factory is still roaring machines, loaded with steel works vehicles coming and going, very busy.

Three large dock, this reporter went from one factory to another first quarter of an hour spent nearly three hours. Plant every two to three hundred meters in the region has a guard on the kiosks, there are a considerable number of security personnel patrol  open, holding walkie-talkie  inspections in the factory district, to see people not dressed in uniform, it will immediately approached some cross-examination. Islanders also introduced, in May at home and abroad have visited several media, the vast majority of even the first door of the factory have not been able to enter.
