Liu Heping: What mysteries are hidden?

Straight News: Mr. Liu, the Japanese Maritime Self -Defense Force announced on the 25th that it has conducted a joint tactical training of the Three Kingdoms with the US Navy and the Australian Navy in the Pacific Ocean. How do you interpret this?

Special commentator Liu Heping: I think that we must not only pay attention to the military exercise of the three countries and Japan, Australia, and Australia, but also pay attention to who has not come, especially those countries that should participate in military exercises but have not participated in military exercises in the end Only in this way can we interpret the true mystery of them.

According to Japan, the purpose of this military exercise is to ensure the military security of the "Indo -Pacific" region, which is part of the "Indo -Pacific Strategy". Then everyone knows that there are four main countries that have launched the "Indo -Pacific" Quartet's security dialogue, especially the "Indo -Pacific Strategy", which are the United States, Japan, India and Australia. In this case, the first country that should have appeared but in the end is India. In fact, India's absence of the United States, Japan and Australia's joint military exercises, in fact, once again proves that the "Indo -Pacific Strategy" and "Indo -Pacific" Quartet security dialogue mechanism is actually in the state of "three lacks and one". Political and ideological participation did not really participate in the "Indo -Pacific" security affairs.

In my opinion, the second country that should have been involved and not involved is Britain. Because before the United Kingdom and the United States and Australia have formed the United States and Britain -Australian military alliances, the purpose of the alliance is to maintain the safety of the so -called "Indo -Pacific" region. Essence This also means that due to the long whip and other reasons, in the future in the "Indo -Pacific" area, it is a military threat to China in the "Indo -Pacific" region. It is mainly political, not substantial.

In addition, there is also a highlight worthy of our high attention. This time when the US, Japan, and Australia held military exercises, they were arranged by their navy's housekeeping weapons, that is, the United States moved. "No." Izumo "was dispatched in Japan, while Australia sent its amphibious attack ship" Canberra ". This also means that the United States, Japan and Australia are preparing for the "Indo -Pacific situation" that may happen in the future.

Straight News: A contract announcement announced by the Pentagon shows that the United States Thor company and Nosropp Gouman will develop a new type of interception missile that can intercept high supersonic weapons for the US Missile Defense Agency. How do you interpret this?

Special commentator Liu Heping: I think that after the research and development of the ultra -high -speed weapon interception system was suspended, the US Missile Defense Administration finally decided to restart the stove again to "meet the difficulties". Severe challenges are related. Or more straightforward, it is closely related to the United States that they have faced strong competition from Russia and China in this field. Because Russia announced earlier that they not only had a more sharp "spear", that is, the test of the "vermiculite" hypersonic cruise missile was completed, and there was a more solid "shield", that is, it has been completed that can be intercepted. The deployment of ultra-high-speed weapon S-500 air defense missile. Therefore, the Bayeng government judged that the United States, which was originally leading in this field, has been caught up by China and Russia, which will cause the United States and its allies to be in a state of unsafe. As the US Missile Defense Bureau officially signed a research and development of the missile system that can intercept ultra -high -speed weapons with relevant military industry companies, it has actually means that since the end of the Cold War, the major country of military reserve competitions have been restricted. Essence

However, in my opinion, the real root of the "Sino -Russian threat" rendered by the United States is not as what the United States thinks, because China and Russia have made great progress in this field. This is just fruit. The real reason is that the first is that Trump unilaterally announced the withdrawal of the "Guide Treaty" during the ruling. This measure not only removed the tight curse that restricted the development of global missiles, but also further exacerbated the sense of crisis and not in other major powers. Second, the United States has clearly announced that not only will they compete with China but also confront them; third, the United States has summoned allies to deal with China and Russia globally, especially in the so -called "Indo -Pacific Strategy", which makes China and Russia have to strengthen the army. Self -protecting.

The reason why the United States focuses on the attack and interception field of ultra -high -speed missiles is because of the competition in the field of ultra -high -speed missiles. The essence is actually the competition of nuclear strike capabilities, because ultra -high -speed missiles are the best load of nuclear warheads. Ge, the second is that with the increasingly mature technology of traditional missile interception technology, traditional offensive missiles no longer have absolute lethality, and related countries will definitely focus on the research and development focus on ultra -high -speed missiles. It is worth noting that as the United States has begun to develop new type of interception missiles that can intercept hypersonic weapons, of course, China and Russia will also develop faster high -speed speed weapons to counter the United States interception system. At the same time, other countries around the world, including Japan and other countries, will also join a new round of ultra -high -speed missile competition.
