Deep sea hunting sharks and assaults on the sea. Who is the PLA target?

What many people in Taiwan did not expect was that the Eastern theater of the PLA continued on the 8th to conduct practical combat training in the sea and airspace around the island on the 8th. Among them, the navy and Air Force, multiple farewood ships, multiple types of fighters, and multiple shore firepower units. Under the unified command of the theater, in accordance with the consistency of the war training and the system of the system, the joint anti -submarine and assault operations were organized. The old driver knocked on the blackboard: the focus is here -joint anti -submarine and assault on the sea.

The video released by the Eastern theater on the evening of the 8th also showed the joint anti -submarine of the PLA's sea and air forces: the air -to -sub -submarine patrol aircraft large -scale inspection target waters, carrier -based helicopter hanging mounts for precise positioning ...

Why do the PLA dedicated to extending the exercise time in the outside world and practicing anti -submarine operations?

As we all know, the underwater combat power of the Taiwan Navy is really weak. Among the 4 submarines in active duty, the "Sea Lion" and "Seal" are both super antiques built during World War II and have long lost their ability to go to sea. The "Fishfish" class submarine ("Hailong" and "Haihu") built in the 1980s did not modernize, and it was far behind the advanced level of the world. forget it……

There are only two submarines in the Taiwan Navy barely used

Obviously, the anti -submarine subjects of the PLA on the 8th will not be targeted at the Taiwan Army, but other nearly underwater power. After opening the map, you can know that the United States and Japan, which has a strong submarine forces around Taiwan and a positive attitude towards the Taiwan Strait, is the most doubtful object.

According to the requirements of the Pentagon, the US "Reagan" aircraft carrier strike group is moving closer to the waters near Taiwan. The Chinese think tank "South China Sea Strategic Situment Perception" revealed on the 8th that the "Reagan" aircraft carrier strike group continued to drive south. Compared with the position of the 6th, the aircraft carrier moved south of about 140 nautical miles to the south. According to the convention, at least one attack nuclear submarine in the US aircraft carrier strike group usually explores the road underwater. The old driver believes that the U.S. nuclear submarine that is escorted by the "Reagan" has reached the possibility of approaching the waters of the eastern part of Taiwan.

Equipping nuclear submarines for the aircraft carrier strike group is the conventional operation of the US Navy

At the same time, the bus strait in the southeast of Taiwan itself is also the U.S. submarine in the South China Sea frequently in the South China Sea. Earlier, the PLA anti -submarine patrol aircraft went to patrol near the bus strait many times. Taiwan speculated that it might be tracking the US nuclear submarine.

On the other hand, the water depth of the Taiwan Strait is shallow and the hydrological environment is complicated, which is not conducive to large underwater target activities such as the US nuclear submarine. In contrast, the Japanese Self -Defense Force's advanced conventional submarines are more suitable for activities around Taiwan. Recently, Japan has frequently shouted to China on the so -called "Chinese missiles into the Japanese exclusive economic zone". Will the Self -Defense Force a submarine lurk around Taiwan? This possibility is also very worthwhile to knock on the PLA's large -scale sea and air anti -submarine exercises.

In addition to the invisible underwater power, the U.S. military also blatantly dispatched various ships including aircraft carriers and missile measurement vessels to approach the reconnaissance PLA exercise, and even advocated to dispatch the "Reagan" through the Taiwan Strait in the next few weeks. Therefore, the PLA Eastern theater of the Eastern theater set up an assault operation on the sea, and the intention to target was very obvious.

The old driver reminded another sentence that the PLA's eastern theater specifically mentioned the "multiple shore -guided fire unit". This usually refers to the Kishiki anti-ship cruise missile, and its maximum range is generally about 200-300 kilometers. So under what circumstances, the false ship's ship is approached within 200 kilometers from the coastline of the mainland?

Such an obvious warning, I believe that officials who need to send the "Reagan" through the Pentagon of the Taiwan Strait won't understand it?

In fact, military expert Song Zhongping said on the 8th that the latest information shows that "joint anti -submarine" and "crackdown on surface ship targets" are the focus of training. He said that if the American attack nuclear submarine lurks around my country, it will seriously pose a serious threat to China's national security including military security. Therefore, our army should increase the intensity of searching, anti -submarine, and attacking. The purpose is to prevent American submarines from being unable to hide in several key seas around China. On the other hand, the US aircraft carrier, including other warships, may enter the Taiwan Strait to carry out provocations. Therefore, the key courses of this exercise include a crackdown on surface ships to warn the United States. Serious warning of the United States. "

At the same time, the PLA's exercises in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea on the 8th also attracted close attention from the outside world. Lin Yingyou, assistant professor of the Tamkanjiang Institute of Tamkani, speculated that the PLA continued to play or target this in the Yellow Sea and Bo Navy. Lin Yingyou explained that "Four Seas Connect" is the basic combat strategy of the PLA. Once the Taiwan Strait occurs, the PLA aircraft carrier combat group may go south from Dalian, and other fighters and ships will also cover several theater. Whether the PLA is about to "attack and restrain" is the key point that is about to support combat. Lin Yingyou believes that the Huanghai and Bo Navy played to warn South Korea and the US military stationed in South Korea. If the Taiwan Strait broke out of conflict, there would not be only the eastern theater, and all other theater will move.
