League of Arab States (LAS) Mission operations in Syria is not over, disclosure requirements of the proposed military intervention in Syria has been released.

Arab League Secretary General Arabi, 15, said the Arab League ministerial meeting this week to discuss Qatar may be submitted prior to the Arab League to send troops to the Syrian proposal. This is also the Arab League for the first time hinted that it might intervene militarily against Syria.

Qatar initiated the "Syrian troops."

Emir of Qatar (that is, the country's national leader) and Defense Minister and Armed Forces Hamad Bin Khalifa al-Thani 15 in the CBS broadcast of the program stunned: "ISyria sent troops to support the Arab League, to prevent genocide! "

Asked Hamad became the first Syrian Arab leaders to send troops. But he did not say how the military intervention in Syria, the Arab will be effective.

15, said a representative of the Arab League, Arab League has not yet received any official proposal to send troops stationed in Syria, saying both Arab and non Arab countries are neither agreement on military intervention in Syria. However, Al Jazeera, Qatar 16 Arab League Secretary General Arabi quoted as saying that the Arab League's foreign ministers will formally discuss "the Syrian troops" proposal.

Arabi 16 in Bahrain, said: "Syria's killing continues. There are still many people were arrested." He said, before 20 Arab League foreign ministers meeting in Cairo will discuss the next step, "All proposals can be discussion ", is likely to be made by Qatar to discuss the Arab League to send troops to the Syrian proposal.

According to the agreement with Syria, the Arab League, Arab League mission will continue until the 19th of this month, will observe the round up than the first official report submitted by the Arab League. Arab League will be held 19 or 20 members of the Ministerial Committee and the Foreign Ministers' Meeting to discuss the report and assess whether Syria has complied with the commitment of the Arab League initiative and the Arab League to reach the latest position on Syria. Analysts pointed out that the full report is essential, directly related to the future direction of the situation in Syria.

"Troops" already came out two months ago, the proposal

Statement by Al-Jazeera, Hamad's "troops" interview program have been completed in mid-November last year, but the U.S. media before a public broadcast Jan. 15, but this time it is the Arab League mission in the most delicate situation in Syria the occasion.

Last December, the Syrian government agreed to the Arab League "peace agreement", to stop the repression of the opposition, will withdraw from cities tanks and other heavy weapons, release all political prisoners, allow foreign correspondents and humanitarian aid workers to enter Syria. Since then, the Arab League's more than 200 national observers from entering Syria, and soon made a very positive on the Syrian government's observations. This allows the Syrian opposition and considerable dissatisfaction in some countries, the United States and even accused the Arab League mission "work shall not be deemed to assess the effect of non-objective."

But then a few days, there were several classification of domestic terrorist attacks, the situation rapidly deteriorated: two observers' left out of anger "and severely criticized the government classification of" misleading the observer "; the truth in an attack remains unknown, a French correspondent killed, several injured in a foreign reporter ... ... the United States and Syria, this characterization of the opposition, said: "Arab League mission failed to prevent the classification of government massacre were observed action can not continue indefinitely. Bashar al-Assad should immediately step down."

In this context, has a huge influence on the Arab League in Qatar Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim said the Arab League Mission in Syria "committed a technical error, that the United Nations to provide staff and technical assistance." Subsequently, the U.S. media suggested that broadcast the Arab League heads of state of Qatar "Syrian troops," the interview.

Some analysts have pointed out that the classification of the Arab League since its presence in the domestic security situation deteriorating, there are some forces are trying to show through violence (or even terror) means Syria political situation will further muddy the water. Therefore, the Arab League mission, how to maintain objectivity in the Syrian position on the issue submitted to the guidance of a real report, remains a challenge.

United States and Europe pressing harder and harder League dilemma

Although no one can measure this week's Arab League ministerial level how the qualitative Syria, but for the Arab League, whether or not to send troops in Syria, will face a serious consequence.

Tunisian President Marzuki 16 point out how serious the consequences would be: "As long as the Arab League sent troops to Syria, then the war could spread throughout the region, will be open to a variety of forces into Syria chaos channel in Turkey, Israel, Iran and Lebanon's Hezbollah militia will be affected, the entire region could be as explosive as this is our concern and related parties. "

Some analysts pointed out, if you do not send troops to the Arab League in the new Middle East will be worried about the influence of the pattern completely lost, because the Libyan war has to end by the NATO intervention in the new League lost its leading position in the Arab world.

Arab League Mission 19 this month submitted its first report on Syria observation. The United States and other Western countries, undoubtedly the most willing to see a one-sided condemnation of the regime of Bashar report.

United States and Europe had told Arab League criticized the activities of the Mission, and even threatened to "be resolved." This makes the Arab League are struggling because of the Arab League would like to resolve its internal framework of the Syrian crisis, to avoid external intervention in Arab affairs again. But the United States and Europe clearly do not intend to give this opportunity to the Arab League and rights.

Therefore, the Arab League now have to consider the "troops" that the ultimate means of settlement. However, once the troops really, they must fall Arabia fratricidal infamy.

Internal and external pressure surge Syria at stake

Throw in Qatar "Syrian troops," suggested the occasion, Syria, and domestic and international pressure surge.

In China, this month, before the classification of government has been "no one Baath Party and government officials or diplomats defected" to stabilize the public. Today, the Department of Defense Inspector General Hamad Mohammed had defected earlier this month, the night of 15 members Imad announced in the Arab television station from the Government. Analysts pointed out that senior government officials of President Bashar centrifuge is a major blow to the beginning.

The international community, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-15 in Beirut, Lebanon to further pressure to the Bashar regime, said: "The Middle East region a person or a family dictatorship of the old era has passed. I am here today to tell President Bashar : stop the violence, stop killing your people! "This is Ban Ki-moon on the developments in Syria, the most severe since the number of speeches once.

Dongbing gearing up multi-strobe information

Although NATO spokesman denied that NATO Romero 13 countries are secretly planning joint military action against Syria, but the Russian National Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev previously disclosed, according to Russia to obtain intelligence, and part of NATO Arab countries have started to prepare for military intervention in Syria, the United States, Syria and the British special forces have been sneaked into contact with the opposition, to assess what weapons and equipment they need to get support, and began to consider the classification of the northern region to open "humanitarian corridors" need NATO aircraft and other forces of the situation.

Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Gantz 10, told parliament that Israel is the downfall of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and the Syrian Alawi refugees Bay Ruge Lan Heights preparation. Gantz said: "Assad can not continue in power. The day the fall of the Assad regime, which belongs to Allawi is expected to hit send and we are ready to receive the Alawites in the Golan Heights refugees."

Gantz also said that Israel should be taking action against Damascus for Israel, do hedge the fight.

16 is once again the Iranian government issued a warning: If Assad regime was "foreign military attack," Iran will be to provide direct support.

U.S. to provide Pakistan with Chinese loans or to buy F-10 aircraft

Core Tip: The United States Embassy in Pakistan has denied the U.S. will be suspended to the Pakistan Air Force F-16 fighter jets to deliver new reports, saying the United States in accordance with the agreed delivery to Pakistan at the end of January the latest batch of F-16. The United States currently provides a large preferential loans to Pakistan, so that the latter can be purchased, including JF-17 fighter aircraft, early warning aircraft and warships, including a variety of homemade weapons.

According to the Russian military-industrial complex website reported January 13, the U.S. Embassy in Pakistan has denied a series of media will be suspended for the United States to Pakistan Air Force F-16 fighter jets to deliver new reports, saying the U.S. will be in accordance with the agreement to the end of January Pakistan delivered the latest batch of F-16.

U.S. Embassy in Baku claimed that there are still a number of aircraft purchased by Pakistan F-16 is the United States to accept modern modification is expected to arrive from inside Pakistan since February, this work will continue until the end of the year.

Pakistan Air Force in 1982, the first flight of F-16A / B "block-15" series of fighters.Pakistan in order to deliver a total of 68 F-16 in 40 (28 F-16A and 12 F-16B), the Israelis and Palestinians to implement the U.S. Congress to freeze nuclear weapons development program on the grounds of activities to provide the remaining fighters.

The end of 2005, the U.S. decided to resume providing to Pakistan F-16. The two sides signed the 2007 sale of 18 F-16C / D "block-52" series aircraft agreement. In addition, the United States decided to Pakistan between 2005 and 2008 provided free of charge 14 used F-16A / B "block-15" (the actual delivery of 10). Currently, the two sides also implement a previously provided for earlier versions of F-16 modernization program to upgrade.

"Simple Defense Weekly," the experts say, the United States and Pakistan in the long-term freeze on military cooperation, which will further push China. The U.S. Embassy in Baku now announced that it will continue to provide F-16, which may partly be due precisely to avoid this from happening.

The United States currently provides a large preferential loans to Pakistan, so that the latter can be purchased, including JF-17 fighter aircraft, early warning aircraft and warships, including a variety of homemade weapons.

Pakistan Air Force before the officials said, China will provide 40-42 Pakistani aircraft JF-17, the total value of about $ 800 million. In addition, the Pakistani government is still looking for other loan providers, in order to be able to buy two squadrons of J-10 multi-role fighter. In addition, China will sell Pakistan six to the new conventional-powered submarines and ships, missile boats.

The report quoted a leaked report, F-35C fighters in August 2011 landed eight times the simulation failed, mainly due to aircraft tail hook and the bottom of the main round of the distance is too short, only about 2.13 meters.

When high-speed aircraft carrier landing, the main wheels run over the cable on the deck of the block, due to too short, too late to return to the original height of cables, resulting in aircraft tail hook not been able to hook the cable to make aircraft stopped at any time due to aircraft momentum is too large and out of the carrier landing, drop the ocean.

The report also questioned said, F-35C failed to provide adequate air support, and questioned the fighters can not launch the UK Asraam air missiles. In addition, many aircraft still in testing, is likely to be more problems.

Report described the F-35C requires "substantial design changes" to fix the problem, but warned that if you change the design costs are too high, the F-35C or development plan fell through.

British Ministry of Defense spokesman declined to comment, but confirmed last month, British Defense Secretary Philip Hammond has met with U.S. Secretary of Defense Panetta to discuss the issue, and that Britain will continue to purchase F-35C fighters.

UK Shadow Defense Secretary Jim Murphy said that Britain, as the island should be able to operate on the carrier aircraft, the authorities should explain clearly the impact of these problems on defense.

It is reported, F-35 series aircraft including the A-type conventional takeoff and landing, vertical landing type B and type C carrier, are alleged to have many defects, of which C-type of structure is most serious.

China, such as submarines equipped with super-quiet aircraft missiles can be defeated


Core Tip: U.S. think tank Center for Defense Information analyst Winslow Wheeler said: And if we encounter a strong army, and army, including the Air Force and has a super-quiet diesel-electric submarines (equipped with ultra-fast, ultra- low anti-ship missiles), then the Navy, the aircraft carrier I suspect we will soon be entering the rapid elimination of unsafe waters.


Data for: the U.S. Navy, "John C. Stennis' aircraft carrier (CVN 74).



Data Figure: China's naval strategic nuclear submarines.

United States January 15 Washington Times quoted military sources as saying that the future of the U.S. aircraft carrier will likely continue to decline. U.S. military currently has 11 aircraft carriers, due to "corporate" aircraft carrier will be retired in November, and the new "Gerald Ford" aircraft carrier to serve until 2015, so the next few years will be only 10 U.S. aircraft carrier in service. In addition, the U.S. think tank Lexington Institute at Thomson believes that the future development of the U.S. aircraft carrier battle groups will face three major challenges, first aircraft carrier construction and operation of the high cost, followed by China and other developing countries could range strike and the ability to destroy U.S. aircraft carriers, and the third is the F-35 fighter aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles to be deployed, will enable the Navy to more easily use other sea-based platform to complete the air mission.

The article said that on the surface, the U.S. Navy's 11 active carriers treasure seems to escape President Obama's budget reduction plan. However, the traditional view remains that the Pentagon's $ 488 billion in 10 years to reduce the requirements, will not prevent the reduction of an aircraft carrier, and Obama's focus on military strategy confused the two depend on the carrier's region: Asia and the Persian Gulf - in Asia, China is developing a powerful navy; in the Persian Gulf, Iran is threatening to impede the international oil transportation.

The article said that according to sources, the Secretary of Defense Panetta introduced next month to prepare the first budget of the strategic plan, the U.S. Navy has been in the secret "battle" in order to protect only 10 aircraft. The source said that although the 2013 fiscal year budget may be able to continue to maintain 11 aircraft carriers, but the next five years the number of Navy aircraft carriers will be reduced to 10 or even 9. A carrier is usually about 80 aircraft delivered by 7500 seamen, a guided missile cruiser, two guided missile destroyers, an attack submarine and a supply ship battle group consisting of. The reduction of a carrier battle group could save billions of dollars. In addition, the U.S. Navy aircraft carrier complement its operational readiness to do a large number of amphibious ships, helicopters, jet fighters and is responsible for land and sea operations of the Marine Corps. Some of these combat troops might also abandoned.

The article said that the U.S. Navy had been discussed within a vision: through the use of time not to retire 50-year life of the carrier to reduce the number of aircraft carrier fleet, and continued in Newport News, Va., shipyard, with seven interval was made for a more advanced aircraft, rather than every five years to create an approach. However, the reduction of a carrier may set off a debate in Congress, Congress has by law require the Navy to maintain 11 active aircraft carriers. According to sources familiar with the discussions said the Obama administration intends to other election in November 2012 set off again after the debate, this is because its 13 votes Virginia is very important. In general, the U.S. Navy will always maintain the three aircraft carriers at sea mission, three aircraft carriers deployed for six months after completion of return, three aircraft carriers to deploy two aircraft carriers to prepare and carry out a certain type of repair situation. For example, in January this year, installed about 10 years in the forefront of the "Ronald Reagan" aircraft carrier is about to enter the dry dock, a one-year large-scale repairs.Panetta in accordance with the requirements of Defense, the Pentagon has been forced to stop publication of any details of the budget. Panetta followed the pattern of his predecessor, Robert Gates, Gates has forced senior officials to sign a confidentiality agreement.

The article said that according to sources introduced to force the save of the $ 488 billion will come from two main sources: the Army and Marine Corps ground forces cut more than 10 million people, and to reduce or delay large-scale weapons systems (such as F -35 fighter) procurement. But will reduce the number to 10 aircraft, the Pentagon may be an additional saving of billions of dollars. A carrier of the officer and seamen (not air wing) have an annual payroll of about $ 225 million. U.S. think tank Lexington Institute at Loren Thompson, said: "I think the next five years, the United States will continue to run at least 10 aircraft carriers, but in the long run, cost and operational concepts are likely to make the transfer of the Navy on the carrier's attention. "In fact, the Navy will soon be gone through 10 carrier test: As the" Enterprise "aircraft will be retired in November, and the new" Gerald Ford, "the carrier until 2015 to service, so the next few years will be only 10 Navy aircraft carrier in service. Thomson said: "The U.S. aircraft carrier because the plan will be reduced to 10 because, although it is kind of a temporary situation, but I think in the 'business' number retired, 'Ford' was not out during the installation, the Navy may be gradually used to run only 10 carrier state. "

The article said that Thomson pointed out that the future development of the U.S. aircraft carrier battle groups will face three major challenges. He said: "First, the aircraft carrier construction and operation costs become very expensive and secondly, such as China and other countries are developing long-range combat and can destroy the ability of U.S. aircraft carriers. Third, F-35 fighter and the emergence of UAVs the Navy can more easily use other sea-based platform to complete the task air Obama's strategy of its first Defense Secretary Robert Gates repeated the idea. February 2011, Gates said in a speech: "In the future any Secretary of Defense in the President once again proposed to Asia, the Middle East or Africa, sending large numbers of ground troops should think twice before. "This is a repeat of Bill Gates, General Douglas MacArthur famously said after the Korean War, it is intended to persuade the U.S. to avoid playing ground war in Asia, indeed, published this month, Obama's strategy to reduce large-scale ground the possibility of war, it is proposed to be portrayed as active duty forces to fight a limited ground war for a short time the troops.

The article said that, in addition, Gates of the Western blot may be more reflected by the aircraft carrier issue. In 2010, Gates delivered a speech at the U.S. Naval Association had asked: "In the next 30 years, we really need to maintain 11 aircraft carrier battle groups prepare it?" The U.S. think tank Center for Defense Information (Center for Defense Information) analyst Winslow Wheeler (Winslow Wheeler), said: "I think Gates is right, we have shown military exercises, as well as attacks in Iraq and other countries unable to pay too much, while if we encountered a strong army, and army, including the Air Force and has a super-quiet diesel-electric submarines (equipped with ultra-fast, ultra-low anti-ship missiles) Navy, I suspect that our aircraft will soon be entering unsafe waters rapidlyeliminated in each aircraft carrier costs $ 13 billion over the case, then its investment in the future it is not wise. "However, the aircraft carrier supporters pointed out that when the crisis hit the United States, the White House often ask" carrier where the "problem. 8 has been involved in actions that have been deployed aircraft carrier retired Navy pilot, Jon Duarte said: "China will spare no effort to develop its maritime superiority. Imagine the situation the next 20,30,40 years, only two U.S. or three carrier battle groups. has run 40, 50 years old aircraft carrier to stay in nuclear shipbuilding industry no longer exists. By then, China's power we may have a very unfavorable. "

China and India work together to create a better future

PRC State Councilor Dai Bingguo

I am very pleased to once again come to the beautiful New Delhi, India with my colleagues at the 15th Sino-Indian border special representatives. Each time, India's strong economic growth, rapid changes gave me left a deep impression.

In the 1950s, China and India accurately grasp the pulse of the times, jointly initiated the dazzling brilliance still shine, showing vitality and peaceful coexistence. Today, the face of tremendous and profound changes are taking place in the world, and the ancient civilizations of the world's population accounts for nearly 40% of the developing country, China and India once again adapt to the times, seize the historical opportunity of economic globalization, to achieve rapid development and growth of the world's two largest emerging powers in international and regional affairs is playing an increasingly important role.

Is very pleased that the 21st century, peace and prosperity for India strategic and cooperative partnership has been sustained and rapid development, friendship and cooperation bear rich fruits. Bilateral trade volume in 2000 was just $ 2.9 billion in 2010 to grow to $ 61.7 billion, 10-year period increased by 20 times. Two countries in various international multilateral mechanisms, in response to global challenges so to speak with one voice, getting closer and closer coordination. Last year was the "China-India Exchange Year", the two countries held the first round of Strategic Economic Dialogue, 500 Indian youth to visit and a series of colorful exchange activities, the second decade of the 21st century, China-India relations and made a good first. Development of bilateral relations has entered a fast lane.

Indian friends can believe that China intended to India full of friendliness. We seek to develop their own, while wholeheartedly and sincerely committed to developing long-term friendly and cooperative relations with India, India sincerely wish the prosperity of the people happy and healthy. China did not exist to the so-called "attack India", "suppressing the Indian" problem. China will unswervingly take the road of peaceful development, both through the maintenance of world peace to develop itself through its own development, to world peace; the emphasis on their own strength, reform and innovation to achieve development, adhere to the outside world, to learn from the strengths of other countries ; conform to the trend of economic globalization, countries seek mutual benefit and common development; with the international community to work together to promote the building of lasting peace and common prosperity and harmonious world.

China's peaceful development thinking not fall from the sky, but deeply rooted in Chinese traditional culture; not want to come out of thin air, but gradually the practice of reform and opening up exploration and formed a strong national policies and strategies basis; not an expedient measure, but following the world trend, based on the basic national conditions and make their own rational and strategic choice. Even if China really prosperous and powerful, and will continue to unswervingly take the road of peaceful development.

As early as 1988, Mr. Deng Xiaoping once said Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, only China, India and other developing countries, and truly the Asia-Pacific century or Asian century, considered to come. Prime Minister Singh also said that as long as India and China to speak with one voice, the world will listen. I think the insight profoundly expounded China and India develop their own, and develop mutual relations of our two countries, of our common life in Asia and the world how important and necessary. We must use the concept of peaceful development to guide and promote development of bilateral relations, a positive look at each other's development of a strong, always regard each other as important partners and friends, not rivals, good neighbors, good friends and good partners. I already had 70 years old, and sincerely hope that our future generations will never live in peace, friendship and cooperation among.

History has entered the second decade of the 21st century. Looking ahead, China and India has great potential for cooperation is unlimited, faced with the relations of the "golden period." World has enough space for our common development, there is enough for us to win-win cooperation areas. Let the two neighboring countries, 2.5 billion people join hands and seize the historical opportunity to work together to develop friendship and cooperation to benefit the two countries and peoples for the benefit of all mankind.

According to the Russian military news network reported on 16 January, Russia's strategic and technical analysis centers researcher Vasily - card application that, in the foreseeable future, China will lose the Russian arms export market dominance. In the medium-term prospects, the Russian military-technical cooperation will be only an average size of 10-15 billion dollars.

Russia's strategic and technical analysis centers researcher card application on January 13 in an Interfax Military News Agency as saying: "can be confident that China will continue to be Russia's military-technical cooperation in the field of key partners, each year about the scale of cooperation 10-1500000000 U.S. dollars in the foreseeable future, will maintain this position. "

Card application that, according to Rosoboronexport data, China's total orders represent about 4% of corporate orders, including military-technical cooperation between the two countries in 2011 was somewhat active. China and Russia only in the aviation field the size of the new contract more than $ 1 billion. Sino-Russian military-technical cooperation from the 1990s began to actively develop, Russia is actively sell all kinds of weapons was the most modern equipment, breaking the Soviet Union banned the export of advanced weapons and confidential ordering. China was the first purchase of the latest Su-27MK fighter-type, S-300PM and "Doyle" air defense missile system. China is very popular S-300 system, a large number of procurement and procurement in the 21st century, the most modern of S-300PMU products. Military-technical cooperation between the two countries peaked in 2000, Russia's arms exports to the size of nearly 40 billion U.S. dollars.

Russian experts said, in fact, China is Russia's newest weapons all have basic needs met. Now China is still Russia's advanced air defense systems, Mi-17 helicopter, the anti-ship helicopters and aircraft engines interested. Russian military and technical cooperation in the future, in addition to direct sales of weapons and military equipment samples, and the supply of spare parts related products, the two sides can expand in importance and modern weapons and equipment research and experimental design in the long-term cooperation, joint research and development of new weapons However, the topic is too sensitive, and Russia has not yet been an official representative of the joint R & D cooperation comment. Card unicast: "R & D in this area said the sample not only the development of new weapons and equipment related, such as air defense missile system, also created the underlying technology in addition to a range of areas of China's defense industry equipment and material supply, the difficult to assess the scale of this cooperation.

China's surge in demand for carrier-based air power

Core Tip: According to the U.S., "Jamestown Foundation" Web site on January 6 Journal article said that China's naval modernization is the most significant sign of the aircraft carrier project development. China aircraft carrier project development process has gone through several decades of years, but due to financial, technological, political and strategic constraints, the development of China's aircraft carrier project has been slow.

According to the United States, "Jamestown Foundation" Web site on January 6 Journal article said that China's naval modernization is the most significant sign of the aircraft carrier project development. China aircraft carrier project development process has gone through several decades of years, but due to financial, technological, political and strategic constraints, the development of China's aircraft carrier project has been slow.

In April 2005, China purchased in 1998 the "Kuznetsov" aircraft carrier to be dragged into a dry dock in Dalian, after it received a full conversion. The next few years, a large number of circulating the Internet about the carrier's photos. August 2011, "Varyag" was for the first sea trial, at the same time, the Chinese government more open to talking about the interest of the carrier. Navy Commander Wu Shengli, Defense Minister Liang and both have issued a statement on the development of aircraft carriers. According to the article, carrier-based aircraft carrier project has in itself of equal importance with the carrier, so this carrier-based air forces of China's development and the problems faced by in-depth analysis.

The development of fixed-wing carrier-based aircraft

U.S. media said that China's first aircraft carrier converted upgrade, while also developing the corresponding carrier-based aircraft J-15. The carrier-based aircraft independently developed by China and learn from Russia's Su-33D's many technologies. Currently, Russia's only aircraft carrier on deployment of Su-33D aircraft carrier, the Chinese Navy will have at least one regiment of Su-30MK2 and a group of F-11B.

In October 2006, Russian media reported that China and Russia in talks to buy 12-50 Su-33D carrier-based aircraft things. However, Russian media again in March 2009 said that as the number of countries there are differences in the purchase, negotiations stalled. In addition, Moscow is also concerned that China might imitate the fighters, because China is only guaranteed to buy 2-14 Su-33 fighters. Before that, China has been without Russian permission, to manufacture "Flanker" fighter variant J-11B fighter, which further aggravated Moscow's concerns. As the Su-33 fighter purchase negotiations failed, China is using the J-11B production experience to produce their own carrier "Flanker." Online It is said that this aircraft (J-15) of the first prototype on August 31, 2009 for the first flight, and in the May 6, 2010 Ski Jump successful take-off on land; but These messages have not been confirmed.

Recently, circulating in the flight line of J-15 photos, including at least one painting a popular Chinese Navy Navy gray. In addition, there are on-line J-15 flight video. Although the J-15 is the Su-33 may be generic, but it is believed it, and J-11B uses the same radar, avionics and weapons systems.

The development of ship-borne helicopters

U.S. media said, in addition to carrier-based fighter, the Chinese navy also needs to develop carrier-based helicopters. Chinese aircraft carrier may be used to perform anti-submarine equipment, search and rescue and airborne early warning helicopters, and other tasks, but also equipped with general-purpose helicopter. China's current helicopter force is difficult to meet the needs of the Chinese navy, so the helicopter will be the Chinese navy strong enough short-term face a major challenge.

The Chinese Navy has 35 distribution of organic libraries, and can take off and land the helicopter frigates and destroyers. In addition, the "Sai" was training ship, two amphibious landing ship 071, 920 clinics and three of the most modern offshore supply ship also built a helicopter landing facilities. Chinese navy has about 35-40 helicopters, of which 20-25 for the Russian-made Z-9 and Ka-28, which are mainly implementation of early warning and search and rescue mission. These aircraft can take off and land on the frigates and destroyers. In addition, the Chinese navy may have about 15 Z-8 medium helicopter, the helicopter landing ship from the 071 and 920 medical ships and other large ships take off and land.

With the Chinese navy ships to the increasing number of helicopters taking off and landing, the helicopter shortage will become more prominent. In addition to 071-type landing craft, the media said that China is planning to build 081 helicopter assault ship, the ship's size and capacity similar to the French Mistral class (Mistral) amphibious assault ship, about the U.S. Navy "wasp" class assault ship the half. China's most advanced frigates and destroyers ("Jiang Kai-II" missile frigate "Ocean Journey-II" missile destroyers) are equipped with helicopter landing facilities, and China is not using them to replace those helicopters taking off and landing ships.

U.S. media said, due to the insufficient number of helicopters, the Chinese Navy needs to introduce a large number of helicopters. The short term, China could through the purchase of Russian Ka-28 helicopters and self-made Z-9 and Z-8 helicopters to solve the problem.But this is not the final solution. Z-9 as small and limited physical ability, and Z-8 engine used by another problem. One possible solution is the production of Z-15 military models.This is a co-production between China and Eurocopter's EC-175 variant. However, commercial aircraft models until 2012 is expected to achieve production. Therefore, the military model in recent years is unlikely. Moreover, in addition to obtain a new helicopter, the organization, training and equipment also requires a considerable amount of time.

U.S. media said, in addition to direct early warning and search and rescue helicopters, China's first aircraft carrier may also be required to carry out electronic warfare helicopters. Because of large fixed-wing electronic warfare aircraft (such as the U.S. Navy E-2C) is difficult to hop from sliding off the deck. British Royal Navy, Indian Navy and Russian Navy aircraft carrier (use the Ski Jump deck) are equipped with electronic warfare helicopters to replace the fixed-wing electronic warfare aircraft. According to Russian media reports on the network, China is receiving nine Russian Ka-31 helicopters, electronic warfare, and online photo restrictions, China has deployed to carry out electronic warfare Z-8 prototype. Currently, it is unclear what the helicopter will become China's main electronic warfare helicopter carrier, but is likely to be made such as Z-15 helicopter. However, the ability of electronic warfare helicopters, far less than the E-2C "Hawkeye" and other fixed-wing electronic warfare aircraft.

Pilot training

U.S. media said China aircraft carrier project final challenge is to train pilots. The information in this regard is very little, thus triggering a large number of people guessing.Among them, the biggest question with the Dalian Naval Academy recruit the carrier-based pilots. September 5, 2005 issue of the "Liberation Army Daily" published a paper entitled "Flight Dalian Naval Academy for the first time to recruit students," the report, the report said, the college recruited 50 pilots, these pilots will receive four years of carrier-based flight education. Since then, people think this is the first carrier to train Chinese pilots.

U.S. media said, although this report exciting, but it is unlikely that the fixed-wing pilot training. First, the Chinese media often referred to as carrier-based aircraft carrier-based helicopters, so sure that this report is not carrier-based aircraft pilot training. Second, the Dalian Naval Academy, and not have a pilot training program. The initial stage of China's naval pilot training are generally located in Yantai aeronautical engineering college or university is located in Jilin, Jilin air borne. After the pilots will be flying at Huludao Naval Academy or the Air Force Academy for further training. Dalian Naval Academy is to train officers in surface ships, naval officers and marine engineers politics. The college student may receive the pilot is to enhance pilot training. There is no evidence that China is engaged in aircraft carrier-based pilot training. Third, China is unlikely to allow pilots just fly out of college to play the important task of the first carrier-based pilots. In contrast, China's first carrier-based pilots on active duty may be from experienced pilots to choose, and after the selection may also be in accordance with this standard.

U.S. media said, although do not know the existence of the Dalian Naval Academy pilot training program, but it does in the training of shipboard helicopter operations management. In March 2002, the "People's Navy," published on the College held the ship's flight training program management reports. Before participating in the training of these officers have little knowledge about aviation knowledge. The first training officer in July 2003 graduation. Based on these facts, one can see the pilot training program in 2008 may be the perfect project for 2002. The "Liberation Army Daily" reported that the training related to the "ship-borne helicopters, command." This is also the one hand that in 2008 the project is unlikely to be carrier-based pilot training. Of course, the training will also be extended to activities on the carrier flight management training. But now all this is uncertain.

Conclusion

U.S. media said, as China is building aircraft carriers, amphibious assault ships and large naval surface ships and other advanced equipment, the equipment can be equipped aircraft. Therefore, the Chinese Navy carrier-based air power requirements are increasing dramatically. The most significant is that China is the J-15 flight test aircraft carrier. In addition to fixed-wing aircraft carrier, China's ship-borne helicopters and personnel training, there is also no small problem. J-15 project with China's first aircraft carrier will lead to more attention and speculation. However, the final decision combat effectiveness of China's carrier-based air forces of some other very interesting aspects.

Also need to foster the development of the Chinese Navy carrier-based pilots and ship-based management of flying activities a good mechanism, which may take a long time, it also determines whether the carrier-based air power to be an important part of the Chinese Navy. In addition, if the Navy wants to develop a world of modern Chinese navy, it must improve their organization, training, and equipment of large capacity of ship-borne helicopters. Maritime air power is complex and dynamic nature of the Chinese Navy to manage the equipment will ultimately determine its success in this field.

The advent of the U.S. submarine-launched UAV large submarine combat mode change

The advent of the U.S. submarine-launched UAV large submarine combat mode change


Core Tip: According to the U.S., "Aviation Week" reports, the U.S. Navy in 2012 of the joint military exercises in the Pacific submarine test-fired by the "flick knives" one small electric submarine-launched UAV. The emergence of submarine-launched unmanned aerial vehicles, to the future of submarine combat has added a new model, so the old submarine came close surveillance, antiship, air defense, land attack and other major changes in operational mode.


Data for: "flick knives" submarine UAV.



Data for: U.S. Navy submarines.

According to the U.S., "Aviation Week" reports, the U.S. Navy in 2012 of the joint military exercises in the Pacific submarine test-fired by the company's U.S. aviation environment "flick knives" one small electric submarine-launched UAV. At the same time the Navy has awarded Raytheon Submarine-launched unmanned vehicle technology development contract. This technology allows the use of submarine periscope depth UAV launch vehicle waste disposal equipment, submarine-launched unmanned aerial vehicles unmanned vehicles will be brought to the surface and near the catapult to take off.

Under the contract, Raytheon produced five unmanned vehicles and supporting UAV.2008 completed the first launch from a submarine periscope depth "flick knives" UAV pilot. According to project requirements, packaged in a submarine-launched unmanned electric vehicle, the use of waste disposal facilities through the pop-up on the submarine boat, but by its own weight pull the submarine to sink a certain depth and a certain safe distance, then from the weight, inflatable raft began to start. Inflatable raft device control using pulse floating rate, floating to the surface, the unmanned vehicles to start floating anchor to stabilize the vehicle and protruding vane measured wind direction, then the vehicle tilt to 35 ° ejected from the folded wing UAV.

Arms are very positive about

The first U.S. submarine-launched UAV is in the 1990s by Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman Corporation jointly developed the "Sea Searcher" submarine-launched UAV, which uses folding machine wing, from the standard submarine torpedo tube launch. In 1996 the U.S. Navy, "Asheville" submarine test-fired "Sea Searcher" out of state submerged submarine antenna for remote control of unmanned aerial vehicles to be successful. Since then, Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman have recognized the Navy's submarine-launched UAV is a breakthrough to bring the traditional areas of operation modes and new weapons and combat equipment. Taking into account the commercial interests, the two companies parted ways on this. Group of the United States, one of the five arms joined Raytheon to fight this new technology being. Thus the five arms of the three groups involved in research and development of submarine-launched unmanned aerial vehicles, and were put forward their own proposals.

Lockheed Martin developed the "Cormorant" is mainly used for military reconnaissance UAV can also carry several missiles to attack targets on shore. In addition, the "Cormorant" to add a special pod in the case, can also be put to a special reconnaissance unit behind enemy lines. By design, "Cormorant" usually stored in the launch tube, the use of water released by the submarine, and rocket boosters to accelerate the use of water, the air wing and start to start turbofan engine. In mid-November 2007, the U.S. Navy Los Angeles class nuclear submarine equipped with a "Cormorant" UAV flight in the Atlantic Ocean, this is the first U.S. Navy nuclear submarine launch UAV test flight.

After following the Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman also proposed its own submarine-launched UAV program. The system is called "stealth launch low-cost module system", the biggest difference with the Lockheed Martin program is that it is the use of the torpedo tube launch and modular technology, while seeking to maximize the transmitter module is compatible with the weapons. This technology eliminates the need for big changes to the submarine, navy submarine mining for a variety of weapons and UAV applications in the feasibility of the submarine, thus greatly reducing the use of specialized weapons for submarines to pay development costs.

Raytheon to grab out of the "work" is mentioned at the beginning of the article "submarine capability over the horizon" project. The difference is that with the other two: Raytheon's outstanding engineering and technical personnel to operate UAVs in the idea of ​​the submarine, so they "flick knives" installed sensors and UAV data link equipment. This can directly control the submarine underwater drones, or unmanned autonomous flight, transfer to the submarine sensors and communications systems continuously updated information.

New changes in sea combat mode

The emergence of submarine-launched unmanned aerial vehicles, to the future of submarine combat has added a new model, so the old submarine came close surveillance, antiship, air defense, land attack and other major changes in operational mode.

Now countries are more complete air defense radar network, radar search to cover a large area of ​​country, or even all land, can be compared to determine the distance on the recognition of foreign aircraft. So close to hostile countries, large-scale reconnaissance plane came close to the border surveillance activities more difficult, submarine-launched UAV just can use its small size, stealth, range far escaped the characteristics of long-range surveillance radar surveillance, suddenly appeared on the coast or in-depth over the target area reconnaissance, warning, when the target has not yet been completed reconnaissance missions.

In the sea battle and land attack, the UAV can be found in the more distant the enemy fleet and ships, submarines do not risk the radar out of the water search, reducing the chance of the submarine was discovered in advance. In the submarine attack on the enemy ship, the submarine-launched anti-ship missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles to provide for the relay can be guided; attacks on land targets, the UAV can also battle damage assessment results to determine whether the operational requirements.

The biggest enemy submarine was anti-submarine aircraft, submarine-launched unmanned aerial vehicles for both the emergence of anti-aircraft and anti-submarine submarines open a new way of thinking. According to need, submarine-launched UAVs provide air alert for submarines, anti-submarine aircraft in the fixed-wing or anti-submarine helicopters to provide early warning before the arrival. On the other hand, the use of the potential advantages of air and can also be developing a specialized anti-submarine submarine-launched UAV, so deal with enemy submarines when the enemy submarines always grasp the latest trends.

Currently, many countries have submarines, but no country to achieve practical submarine-launched UAV operations. There are comments that if the U.S. implements the concept of unmanned submersible aircraft carrier, it would be following the early 20th century naval aircraft carrier since the emergence of another mode of innovation and innovation in naval warfare.

U.S. anti-submarine equipment can detect old Chinese submarine

Core Tip: Russia's "military observers" website reported that China has yet to be made to improve the performance of the submarine. Purchase of the 636 submarines from Russia called the world's best submarines quiet one, while the Chinese-made submarines will have to lag behind in this regard many - Americans claim that they can even thirty years ago the production of anti-submarine equipment to detect the submarine.


Data for: Chinese nuclear forces.



Data for: supplies are being added to the submarine.

According to Russia's "military observers" website reported January 11, China increased significantly in recent years investment in the Navy submarine force, a large number of new equipment in service. At the same time, China's submarine force's activities have become more frequent: in 2007, the Chinese navy to send each year only a few submarines patrol the sea, and sometimes not even one; and from 2008 onwards, each submarine on patrol at sea has risen to dozens of ships.

In addition, China's submarine force in the last decade, adding a large number of new equipment, and overall quality improved significantly. According to statistics, but by early 2010, the Chinese navy's new submarine equipment, the proportion is close to 80%. It should be noted that, although the total amount of the Chinese Navy's submarine equipment in the process reducing the 10-20 ships, but the proportion of the new boat has improved significantly.

In the first decade of this century, China's submarine force has received a variety of models of new submarines, including:

-094 Type (NATO called "Gem" class) nuclear submarines. This strategic nuclear submarines carrying ballistic missiles, has built four, there is a will be completed in the last few years. The boat is equipped with main weapons for the 8000-9000 km range, "JL-2" two-stage solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missiles. It is not clear that the specific performance parameters of the missile. A source pointed out that China plans to launch 094 ships built submarine business improvement model to increase in the number of missiles to carry them to 20. Length of 094 submarine 133 meters, a displacement of about 9,000 tons.

-093 Type (NATO called bit "business" class) nuclear submarines. This multi-purpose nuclear submarines in 7500-8000 tons displacement, equipped with six 533 mm torpedo launchers. In addition, the submarine also carries anti-ship cruise missile YJ-82 (basic model of the range of 120 km, through the torpedo launchers). Recent news that the Chinese Navy submarine program switched to 093 400 km range YJ-85 anti-ship missiles. But the news has not been confirmed. Chinese Navy is now equipped with four 093-type submarines, ships the next 2-4 will be built.

-041 Type (NATO called "meta" level) conventional submarines. This new type of diesel-powered submarines built in the start of this century, although it is unclear the specific technical parameters, but experts have basically find out their weapons, including six 533 mm torpedo launchers and anti-ship missiles (possibly YJ-8 or CX-1). Chinese naval fleet is now equipped with 6-7 "Yuan" class submarines, in addition, also in 2011 Pakistan ordered six.

-039 Type (NATO called "Song" class) conventionally powered submarines. The boat was built in the 1990s began, the production (order) has been continued to the beginning of this century. This diesel-powered submarines of the displacement of about 3,500 tons. Its also equipped with six 533 mm torpedo launchers, and YJ-8 anti-ship missile, can carry a total of 18 missiles or torpedoes (depending on the different tasks, weapons equipped will be adjusted). In addition, the 039 can carry up to 36 submarine mines. The submarine built a total of 13-15 vessels.

-636 And 636M-type (NATO called "Kilo" class) conventional submarines. Such submarines are imported from Russia. According to data published by Russian, Chinese purchases of "Kilo" class submarines, not less than 10. The submarine's displacement 23.5 tons (surface) and 3100 tonnes (water), equipped with six 533 mm torpedo launchers, in addition to torpedoes, it can also launch the "Club-S" anti-ship missiles.Each "Kilo" class submarines can carry 18 missiles or torpedoes. In addition, the submarine can carry 24 mines.

Construction and equipment in a large number of new submarine at the same time, China is a large-scale out of old equipment. According to statistics, the Chinese Navy has retired two 091-type "Han" class submarines, five 035-type "next" level and approximately 30 033 conventional submarines.

A need to pay particular attention to the fact that reduction in the size of China's submarine force, while the number of active submarine carrying weapons ships in China naval weapons and equipment of the total of all proportion has been steadily improved. For example, in 2010, the submarine on the concentration of 15-17% of China's naval anti-ship missiles, torpedoes, 80% and 30% of the mines. Although many aspects from the interpretation of these figures, but one can not ignore the phenomenon is that the Chinese submarine patrols at sea is increasing rapidly.

China's submarine force equipped with the multi-purpose submarines are responsible for defending their long coastline, but the U.S. military has recently released report shows that China has yet to be made to improve the performance of the submarine. Purchase of the 636 submarines from Russia called the world's best submarines quiet one, while the Chinese-made submarines will have to lag behind in this regard many - Americans claim that they can even thirty years ago the production of anti-submarine equipment to detect the submarine.

For those with long-range ballistic missiles, nuclear submarines, in order to find that they will have more difficult. However, such as 094 nuclear submarines in the Pacific need to enter in the launch position to cover 75-80% of the territory of the United States, and in this process they found significantly increased risk. Although the use of effects may not be too good, but is growing into a superpower, China, to maintain a three-part strategy to combat one of the submarine force is clearly essential choice.

The overall strength, the Chinese Navy is still not like the U.S. Navy with such a strong opponent against the sea to gain advantage, therefore, the development of submarines and other naval equipment is beyond the inevitable choice. In the first decade of this century, the Chinese navy has been updated for about half of the surface ships. For the Chinese navy, the next most important task facing the two will be: to build more new cruise ships and will be extended to the central Pacific waters.

X-47B UAV 21D difficult to hit off Dongfeng ballistic missiles

X-47B UAV 21D difficult to hit off Dongfeng ballistic missiles

Core Tip: Korean military sites, "Korea Navy Forum" article, in the face from the Chinese DF-21D anti-ship ballistic missile threat, the U.S. tried to X-47B UAV's ultra-long-range DF-21D offset the potential threat. Although the data, X-47B can really offset the DF-21D range of advantages, but the reality is clearly not so simple.


Data Chart: X-47B unmanned attack aircraft on the ship imagination figure.



Data for: Dongfeng 21 missiles.

South Korean military sites, "Korea Navy Forum" January 9, 2012 published an article, although late last year, have appeared in U.S. UAV RQ-170 was captured by Iran, and "death" events such as UAV crashed in Seychelles But the eyes of the U.S. military unmanned aerial vehicles, "high" status is not affected. Faced with China's Dongfeng-21D anti-ship ballistic missile threats growing, the United States, uncharacteristically, has not targeted to strengthen its defense capability, but trying to X-47B unmanned aircraft to offset the ultra long range Dongfeng-21D potential threat. Although the data, X-47B can really offset the DF-21D range of advantages, but the reality is clearly not so simple.

The article said that if the anti-ship ballistic missiles and unmanned aircraft, will be the implementation of enforcement actions on the battlefield more quickly, only be regarded as a representation of the results. So the significance of this representation, any one of the world's army, are undoubtedly invaluable, it is effective to reduce the casualties of war.China, for example, does not have anti-ship missile in the period, the U.S. aircraft carrier to be an effective deterrent, or even effectively combat, we have to invest a lot of ships and ships. From time to time in the face of strong United States, no matter how effective attacks on the Chinese side will undoubtedly suffered great losses. The emergence of anti-ship ballistic missiles, just no way to make China an unprecedented access to the U.S. aircraft carrier deterrent effect. Thus, in a sense, anti-ship ballistic missile can also be regarded a kind way to launch and ballistic flight of the "suicide" drones.

The article said that the face of anti-ship ballistic missile threat from China, the United States chose the "spear g spear" approach to deal with. But while the data on the real, the United States, "spear" seems better than China's "spear" longer, new number. But in the final contest of the battlefield to gain an advantage, is likely to be Chinese. The reason is that, in the short term, prospects for the development of UAVs less anti-ship ballistic missiles. For any kind of equipment, its initial performance while serving, only to decide whether one of the factors of success. More importantly, the standard is its ability to suppress or even eliminate various possible opponents, and with reference to the actual needs, to match the technology upgrade. In a changing operational environment, weapons and equipment needed changing its load of ammunition, as well as extend its operational range. Obviously, as a missile, anti-ship ballistic missile in order to extend its range, apparently extending its range than the unmanned aircraft to be a lot simpler. Meanwhile, anti-ship ballistic missile as a target for a single one-time ammunition, the weight of its warhead can reach 500-1000 kg. And development of its type and degree of difficulty, are ahead of the unmanned aircraft. Thus, at least in the foreseeable short term, unmanned aircraft development prospects, apparently not as anti-ship ballistic missiles.

The article said that even worse, at least in the current situation, no one fighter is still difficult in a relatively short period of time, it was integrated into the dominant fighter in the combat system to. Say the least, even if the X-47B unmanned aerial vehicles, and after various types of unmanned aircraft can be quickly integrated into high-end U.S. combat existing system, the rapid formation of proper fighting, but there is still a fatal problem, thatthat is, with its vision of the war power, anti-ship ballistic missile on its ability to pose a real threat to it? The answer is probably no. The reason is that, at least as of now, China's Dongfeng-21D anti-ship missiles have been fired way to achieve mobility on land, the future will be deployed in the possibility of submarine platform is relatively small. Therefore, the US-made unmanned aircraft wishing to pose a threat to the DF-21D, arrived in China's coastal waters must be, or even into the Chinese interior. But the problem is that China will make this high-value anti-ship ballistic missile weapons, "wretched" and "alone" it? Face the test of actual combat experience, and has suffered a great loss to the United States of Chinese air-defense system. UAV really grasp the effective penetration, and a mobile targets to effectively combat it?

The article said that no anti-ship ballistic missiles than aircraft in a tactical disadvantage, to some extent to say, do the visual aspects of the United States to contain China's overall weaknesses in the specific embodiment. In the early days of China, subject to the limitations of naval and air forces of China's maritime defense to pursue long-term "offshore defense." Means of implementation can be summarized as "empty, hidden, fast", that naval aviation (air), submarine (submarine) torpedo or missile boats and surface ships based (fast) as the main force, the "offshore defense." At this stage, the United States without the need for the adjustment of China's naval and air force troops of their own future development of the configuration and equipment. But with a large number of large modern surface ships, especially large domestic destroyers and aircraft carriers commissioned by the Navy and the emergence of China's defense posture gradually from "offshore defense" to "Ocean offensive and defensive" change. Moreover, this shift occurred at a time point also sensitive. On the one hand the United States for two "war on terror", greatly weakened by its own strength too weak scruples Asia Pacific region.Meanwhile, China has increasingly grown into a global state, a large overseas interests and strong comprehensive national strength, the Chinese navy is not only the reality of global development needs, but also support the ability to achieve this goal. Therefore, the U.S. had to confront in cooperation with China alone against a second election between the two coexist. But no matter how the final orientation of the U.S. maritime hegemony challenges are no doubt enormous.

China's military regime on the generation gap with the West need to promote enterprise development

Core Tip: China Aviation Industry Group Corporation Lin Zuo Ming said, the aircraft industry restructuring objective has never changed. Present in the system, the Chinese military enterprises with the gap between the West is "generation gap", we are not allowed to have this "generation gap." As a military enterprise, we must accelerate the construction of a modern enterprise system, the only way to exchange blows with the master of the West.


Data Figure: China Helicopter Plant.



Data for: helicopter in production.

China Aviation Industry Group Corporation Lin Zuo Ming in the "China Securities News" interview with reporters, said the reorganization is slow mainly because the policy level, to accelerate the speed to be the reorganization of assets policy, "ice"; driven by the capital stock of the modern military-industrial enterprise system, is in the direction of the aircraft industry has never wavered. The aircraft industry through a series of system design, enhanced communication with relevant departments, and strive to achieve in the aircraft industry, "two finance three new, five-oriented, trillion," the stated objectives.

"150,2500,5000." This is as Lin Zuo Ming, general manager of China Aviation Industry Corporation to produce a beautiful 3 years respondents. Since the founding in 2009, the aircraft industry from the capital market to raise 150 billion yuan. Latest data show that as of the end of 2011, the Group's annual sales income reached 250 billion yuan, total assets of more than 500 billion yuan. Currently, more than 70% of the Group's subsidiary has launched a core business asset securitization process.

In accordance with the idea of ​​Lin Zuo Ming, with group assets of the progressive realization of the strategic reorganization of the future headquarters of the aircraft industry will be mainly responsible strategic control and financial holding role, complete the section's governance of listed companies. Group of high-quality industrial assets, will be the right time, into different categories for each section of the listing platform to go, in order to achieve the main business subsidiary of the overall market.

The future of the aircraft industry's Institute for a large number of asset classes, will be the next re-focus; the future of our financial sector, will become an important foundation of the main business aviation, a subsidiary of overseas M & A depends on the speed the process of asset securitization.

Policy to speed up the reorganization of assets to be "ice-breaking"

China Securities Journal: In accordance with the established goals in the aircraft industry in 2011 to achieve 80% subsidiary of the main business and related assets into the listed company, a subsidiary of the basic realization of the overall market, as of now, how to achieve this goal?

Lin Zuo Ming: the reorganization of assets in the aviation industry based upon the stated objectives in the promotion. Start from the work process perspective, this goal has been basically achieved. But the results, by objective factors, the current rate of asset securitization subsidiaries reached only 55% failed to meet established goals. Many reasons, the first volume of assets involved in all aspects; Secondly, the aircraft industry's restructuring of the sector, need to go through a number of departments for examination and approval.

Nevertheless, the aircraft industry restructuring goals have never changed. Present in the system, the Chinese military enterprises with the gap between the West is "generation gap", we are not allowed to have this "generation gap." As a military enterprise, we must accelerate the construction of a modern enterprise system, the only way to exchange blows with the master of the West.

China Securities Journal: In accordance with the current development growth in 2020 can be achieved in the aircraft industry, "trillion" target? Some people think that large-scale restructuring in the height of the aircraft industry has been in the past, the future will enter into a difficult period of integration and financial development, how to treat this problem?

Lin Zuo Ming: We never will, "trillion" as hard targets. The reason that "trillion" target, I mainly want this group to the world-class Forced military enterprise line.

In 2011, China Aviation Industry sales income of 2,500 yuan, profit of 120 billion yuan.Planned 2015 sales income of 50 billion yuan, there are still four years, so the "second five" sales target to achieve 500 billion yuan will be a challenge. To achieve this goal, the next four years to operate air services in new markets, and to work on developing civilian products.

On the restructuring, ST and ST Aerospace Changhe restructuring in the technical operational level is very complex, but we did. Therefore, the reorganization of the difficulties are not at the technical level, but mainly at the policy level, the relevant departments of the military enterprises listed on the current understanding, there are still different views.

China Securities Journal: In November last year, denied a defense assets Hongdu Aviation news listing platform, contrary to many investors expected. Listed in the group as a whole process, how to face the challenges of military assets listed? Reorganization of military assets in the aviation industry the idea of ​​that?

Lin Zuo Ming: defense assets are indeed very complex. From an international point of view the major defense companies, Lockheed Martin and EADS (European Aeronautic Defense and Space Group) are listed companies, more than 50% of Boeing defense business, it is a listed company. Military defense sector in the aviation industry is relatively concentrated, but we never will Hongdu Aviation business listing platform as a defense plan.

China Securities Journal: But the company did before the announcement seems to suggest relevant.

Lin Zuo Ming: The Paris Air Show, we learned that more than 70% of Dassault's revenue comes from business jets, fighter income is only about 20%, less than 10% from the software business. Future defense company in the aviation industry but also the development of business jets, said at the time the Hongdu Aviation Listed platform as a defense, but also refers to the civil part of the business market, we never thought of it as a military defense business listing platform.

Integration of military and civilian defense in the aircraft industry has always been the company's guiding ideology, on Hongdu Aviation, certainly after the first consideration is the civil assets of the business can be listed.

Reorganization of assets will become the next focus of Institute

China Securities News: aircraft industry in a number of business segments, which present the highest degree of asset securitization plate? What the future will focus on promoting the reorganization of assets plate?

Lin Zuo Ming: Basically, all the current avionics sector assets are injected into the enterprise in the aircraft electronics (formerly ST Changhe). AVIC also the overall market in advance in accordance with established goals.

Xi'an Aircraft International restructuring has been restarted, with the exception Institute assets, the assets of the aircraft in the aircraft industry have been injected. December 30, 2011 the Commission has reviewed the conditions of major assets by the Xi'an Aircraft International projects will be completed the first half of 2012 reorganization.

Overall, all the plates in the aircraft industry in promoting the overall market, individual blocks may be related to the main business aviation does not matter, for example in aircraft construction, its does not have any listed companies, companies like this, we will consider a separate IPO.

China Securities Journal: helicopter is not in the aircraft industry's only integrated subsidiary of any assets, Hafei only listed as a helicopter platform, the integration of assets is expected to strongly, this group plans?

Lin Zuo Ming: The Chinese helicopter market potential is very large, as long as the low-altitude airspace opening up, be the first to enter the international market is the helicopter.Characteristics of the helicopter is basically dependent on the localization of post-service side. So long as the low opening of the domestic market will be very large.

Hafei Aviation Industry Co. have established a partnership with the helicopter company in Tianjin, the current headquarters building and focus on new projects, the helicopter company in the future capital of the direction is clear.

China Securities News: Aviation Precision Machinery is defined as the integration platform for mechanical and electrical equipment assets, reorganization of the company when the second start?

Lin Zuo Ming: Aviation Precision Machinery completion time of the first round of asset integration is expected in the first half of 2012. The second round of the Academy's greatest asset is the asset, but the Institute of the assets into the listed company on the premise that restructuring. Similar to the Aviation Precision Machinery Research Institute of the assets is also an asset.

Financial sector will become the aviation industry relies on the main

China Securities Journal: China's aviation industry now has securities, trust and other financial assets, the Group in this area, what kind of operation of the idea?

Lin Zuo Ming: aviation industry must rely on the main financial, EADS, GE and other large companies have a financial asset backing, in order to form the whole industry chain advantages. The future structure of our financial sector, the consortium will be similar with Mitsubishi.

Boeing, Lockheed Martin and other companies top ten investors are Wall Street's major funds, banks, indicating that the U.S. military system, the investment managers is relatively stable. In the U.S., large financial institutions subject to government regulation, as we understand the private holding is so uncontrollable. Unfortunately, the current domestic financial institutions and not a lot of equity holding important military plates, large domestic banks and in the aviation industry more or lending relationships, and shares do not form close relationships.

China Securities Journal: Non-aviation sector, there are already Fiyta,, mid, Rainbow Department Store, the Air real estate and other companies, the next two years the development of non-aviation sector thinking that? Some people think that non-aviation industry, AVIC Spread too big, how to treat this problem?

Lin Zuo Ming: This is a historical formation. The eighties of last century aviation industry for conversion, in turn, we take two paths: one is with the local cooperation, sent technical personnel, engaged in rural enterprises; second is to send an advance team into the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, Shenzhen CATIC the company is produced, let us do it, certainly not like to do business.

Currently, the, mid, Fiyta, Rainbow Department Store, Shenzhen Nanshan Power companies such as commercial positioning, management and operational levels are very high, this is the result of market competition. These enterprises are state-owned assets, since it has been doing so well, we must continue to maintain.

Although the main business of these companies and aviation irrelevant, but these enterprises have become the main industry in the aviation industry aviation market economy "home teachers", we hope that these companies market awareness, can be transferred through various channels to the main business aviation group in an effort to improve the aviation industry's main market participation. Currently, we have been sent from the aviation industry in the main important cadres to these companies suspended duties.

Subsidiaries of overseas M & A market process depends on the speed

China Securities Journal: M & A action in the aircraft industry abroad frequently, the Group's cash flow will not cause tension? Future overseas acquisitions in the aviation industry in terms of thinking is what?

Lin Zuo Ming: If the Group's subsidiaries listed on the main business can be successfully achieved through the acquisition of assets of listed companies, holdings, then the acquisition of funds would not be a problem. Frankly speaking, the current acquisition of overseas assets in the aviation industry, there are two problems: first, the adequacy of M & A team, we are currently commissioned by Xiamen University specialized training overseas mergers and acquisitions professionals; second in the domestic and overseas capital markets process is smooth, If the capital market is weak, we will be cautious of mergers and acquisitions.

Overseas acquisitions in the aviation industry will be the first air; second is homologous with the aviation industry, including the relative domestic auto parts manufacturing hollow.Here I wish to emphasize, welcome private enterprises in the aviation industry together with overseas acquisitions, mergers and acquisitions in the future this part of the assets into the listed company can be, which will provide private enterprises exit.

Allowed to produce a range of multi-country 180 km Chinese WS-1B rocket launcher

Allowed to produce a range of multi-country 180 km Chinese WS-1B rocket launcher


Core Tip: In addition to long-range firepower advantages, WS-1B rocket launcher there is a complete fire system, excellent mobility and quick response speed. Turkey and Thailand have been purchased from the Chinese WS-1B rocket launcher production license.


Data Figure: China WS-1B quad-mounted rocket launchers.



Data for: Thailand imitation of WS-1B rocket launcher.

With the rapid development of China's defense industry, the Chinese-made military products began to emerge in the world. In the "Russian weapons," the news agency recently released list of the world's multi-barrel rocket launchers, China North Industries Corporation to develop and produce the WS-1B "guards" 320 mm multiple rocket launchers, from 13 countries in 25 different kind products stand out, second only to Russia's "whirlwind", "hail" and the United States, "Hai Masi," ranked fourth. Some experts pointed out that this is one of Russia's own assessment activities carried out, their products do not rule out the possibility of bias, if eligible, experts from other countries, "guardian" of the rankings may be more forward.

Soviet-inspired "hail"

Filed multiple rocket launchers, the Soviet Red Army during World War II, "Katyusha" is well deserved pedigree. Is it opens the small size of this multi-barrel rocket launchers, fierce fire, simple and practical, a sudden and strong, high mobility, set in a variety of technical and tactical performance of the development of modern artillery weapon of its kind. Treasure Island in 1969 and the Soviet Union started the battle, the war for several months, the Soviet "hail" multiple rocket launchers to the war the PLA leadership has left a deep impression, since it is said, the Chinese-made modern multi-launch rocket system development work began to advance rapidly. China has developed in a series of multi-barrel rocket launchers, the 89 still in service type, 90 type. And in recent years, China has successively introduced a more advanced WS-1 and its extended range improved WS-1B.

WS-1 and WS-1B has a long range, fast response and high accuracy. The system is usually connected to the rocket for combat units, mainly used to attack the enemy's deep military bases, ships, transport hub, the military industrial base, political and economic center surface target; with shrapnel warhead rockets against the enemy in depth can also be arms build-up to the armored group, missile launch control center positions and the implementation of a surprise attack.

From the Russian side to provide performance data to see, WS-1B range up to 100 kilometers, higher than the U.S. "Hai Masi" (80 km), with the number one Russian-made "cyclone" (100 km) are equivalent, but far much higher than the third-ranked Russian, "hail (21 km).

Export prospects

According to foreign reports speculated that by the China North Industries Corporation, launched the latest version of the WS-1B has a maximum range of 180 km. Thus believe that the Federation of American Scientists website, WS-1B is expected to fill the suppression of artillery and ground tactical missile gap between the fire and become a trump card of Chinese Army tactical weapon.

In addition to long-range firepower advantages, WS-1B as a complete fire system, with its superior mobility, quick reaction speed, the more comprehensive command, control and protection of information systems and support systems, has attracted the interest of many countries , which was undoubtedly the most representative of Turkey. It is reported that as early as 1997, Turkey bought one from China with the WS-1 rocket system, and soon began in China with the help of their own production. Turkish army to "Kase Jia," the name of the equipment, even after five of the country and from China to buy WS-1B production license, the upgrade version of China's "guardian" in Turkey named "Puma" .

Interest on the WS-1B in Thailand in Southeast Asia as well. Sources said that Thailand also purchased the production license system, and produce their own DTI-1-type multi-barrel rocket launcher system. Allegedly, the system was started in January 2011 in the Thai army service.

Difficult to hide the next generation of aircraft carrier U.S. missile attack Dongfeng 21D

Difficult to hide the next generation of aircraft carrier U.S. missile attack Dongfeng 21D

Core Tip: U.S. defense experts believe that had previously been given high expectations will help the United States then led half a century of ocean water when the USS Ford, will face China's Dongfeng-21D anti-ship ballistic missiles strong challenges. The type of missile flight is very difficult to intercept, so that can force the U.S. aircraft carrier away from the Chinese coast.


Data for: Dongfeng 21C ballistic missiles.



Data for: foreign media that the U.S. Navy standard close-in weapons. "Phalanx" is not only difficult to intercept DF-21, and even can intercept and meaningless.

U.S. Wall Street Journal article on January 4: U.S. defense experts believe that had previously been given high expectations will help the United States then led half a century of ocean water when the USS Ford, will face China's Dongfeng-21D anti-ship ballistic missiles strong challenges.

The type of missile flight is very difficult to intercept, the intercept sea-skimming cruise missiles to U.S. anti-missile system, the flight altitude is too high; to respond to other ballistic missiles for anti-missile system is too low. And even if they can intercept one to two, while China could launch by more than the missiles to achieve operational objectives.

United States, "Ford," the carrier should be able to help ensure U.S. superiority at sea the next 50 years. "Ford" is the aircraft carrier in Newport News, Virginia, built, designed to carry 4660 crew, aircraft and is a huge arsenal.

But in 2015 the aircraft carrier design and delivery period, there was a unexpected problem: China is building new ballistic missile that can fly the arc, after passing through the stratosphere to reach the U.S. aircraft carrier deck, destroy and destroy the aircraft carrier flight deck crew.

Since 1945, the United States has dominated the western Pacific waters, thanks in large part to 97,000 tons of U.S. aircraft carrier fleet, as the U.S. Navy said, each aircraft carrier is "a 4.5-acre mobile American territory."

Over the years, China has no choice but to watch the U.S. aircraft carrier in its freedom from the coastal waters.

Now, China is conducting large-scale military buildup. Chinese military analysts say China's part of the plan is to force the U.S. aircraft carrier away from the Chinese coast.Therefore, the U.S. aircraft carrier also adjust the plan. Although both sides did not say so, but the two are quietly engaged in a tit for tat military technology race. The importance of sea power balance is quickly exposed.

Pentagon officials would not talk publicly about the potential conflict with China. China and the Cold War Soviet Union, not a clear enemy. Last month, U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense for Policy Affairs Minister Flournoy (Michele Flournoy) a visit to Beijing. She told the People's Liberation Army, a senior general said: "The United States does not want to contain China, we do not see China as an enemy."

However, U.S. military officials often referred to as the Pacific conflict prepared, but did not mention which country to go to war with. U.S. think tank Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, Krepinevich said, it does not say exactly who we're playing. He said: "We can not say that China is a threat, can not say that China is a competitor."

Chinese state media has pointed out that China's new missile - DF-21D 1700 miles away to combat the movement of vessels.

U.S. defense analysts believe that this type of missile flight is very difficult to intercept, the intercept sea-skimming cruise missiles to U.S. anti-missile system, the flight altitude is too high; for ballistic missile defense designed to deal with other systems and too low. And even if they can intercept one to two, while China could launch by more than the missiles to achieve operational objectives.

As a result, this new missile (known as China has not yet been deployed) will force the U.S. aircraft carrier away from the Chinese coast, in clashes near the Chinese border, the U.S. aircraft more difficult to penetrate Chinese airspace, or to establish air superiority.

In response, the U.S. Navy is developing a new long-range unmanned aerial vehicles. This UAV can take off in the long-distance carrier, and the machine's life than it was longer. In addition, the Air Force hopes to establish an unmanned bomber formation, in the vast Pacific Ocean to cruise.

Contest the two countries has been extended to cyberspace. U.S. officials fear that in the event of conflict, China will try to attack the United States control of the UAV and military satellite network network. They believe that the result of conflict depends in part on which party can more quickly and efficiently interfere with other electronic signals or attack other computer networks.

Throughout history, and the sea has always been a country emerging as a prerequisite for world power. China's military construction, to include the important naval construction.According to the Rand Corporation, said in 2002, China has eight submarines, and now equipped with 29 anti-ship cruise missile submarines. August 2011, China's first aircraft carrier to the sea trial, but not yet fully operational.

In the past, military planners in Beijing, Taipei and Washington that a potential point of conflict. Now, more potential point of conflict. The relationship between Japan and China because of the East China Sea territorial disputes become more tense. South China Sea is believed to contain rich oil and gas, China, Vietnam, the Philippines and other countries in the South China Sea territorial disputes exist on the issue.

Last year, China is Vietnam an exploration ship into disputed waters warned that China demanded suspension of the controversial waters of Vietnamese oil exploration activities.

A few years ago, the U.S. military response to the conflict may be sent a two aircraft carriers, to appease allies, deter Beijing. Now, in addition to the missile under development, the PLA also has to attack U.S. aircraft carriers, submarines.

East Asia security expert at the RAND Corporation 赫金博瑟姆 (Eric Heginbotham) said: "This is a rapidly emerging form of development. In 1995 or 2000, the carrier is facing the threat of very small now, this threat has been very obviously now is a lot of new and complex threats. "

It is reported that China's interest in developing anti-aircraft missiles from 1996. Mainland China was Taiwan's voters do not want to discourage the election of "Taiwan independence" tendency of leaders, a series of missile tests. At that time the United States, President Clinton sent two aircraft carrier battle groups into the Taiwan Strait to protect Taiwan that Washington is weak position. This is one of China's strategic setback.

In response, the Pentagon has taken a lot of covert operations to protect U.S. satellites against such missiles or laser weapons destruction. China's ASAT test in a year, the United States also demonstrated anti-satellite capability, with an improved ballistic missile interceptor and detonated an abandoned satellites.

Last year, the arms race accelerated. In January, U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates on at the time and the Chinese President Hu Jintao has just sat down to prepare to repair damaged bilateral relations, China's new, you can avoid the radar of J-20 fighter made its first flight. The aircraft will enable China to launch air strikes further afield - as far as to reach the United States military bases in Japan and Guam.

China in August 2011 by the airworthiness of the aircraft carrier purchased from Ukraine's transformation from the old hull. The Pentagon predicts that China began to build their own aircraft carrier, may be served after 2015 - that is, "Ford" was commissioned shortly after.

U.S. military planners also worry that the Chinese submarine fleet modernization. China's new submarine submarine dive than before longer, more quiet. In 2006, a Chinese submarine fleet in the middle of the United States until the surfaced submarine was discovered.

China's electronic warfare capabilities speculation more difficult. China has invested heavily in space technology, and U.S. defense officials said that some countries may be supported by the Chinese hackers attacked the U.S. defense network. But China has repeatedly said the country was not involved in such action.

Since then, the Chinese army embarked on military modernization, the development of "anti-access, area denial," the ability to weaken the U.S. military forces in the Pacific region.

Former U.S. chief of operations Roughead said last year, started the campaign in the Pacific region is "anti" combat, "You can look in the Pacific during World War II started the campaign, when Japan tried to prevent us from entering the western Pacific. "

In 2004, Chinese President Hu Jintao called on the PLA take "a new historical mission" to defend "national interest." Chinese military officers and experts have said China's national interest include ensuring security of international waterways to protect the flow of oil import routes, and to protect Chinese citizens working abroad.

China military build-up process is slow initially. After the popular media have made some progress in attention and attracted the attention of Washington.

In a test conducted in 2007, China shot down an obsolete weather satellite, demonstrating its ability to destroy U.S. military satellites - U.S. warships and military aircraft through satellite communication and positioning a base in mainland China.

China's technological progress, which some say the military has changed. Chinese military officers and analysts have accused the United States trying to contain China in the "first island chain" within. "First island chain" including Japan and the Philippines, which both countries and the United States signed a mutual defense treaty.

Stakeholders to discuss the United States to withdraw now to Hawaii, the Chinese navy in the western Pacific, Indian Ocean and other regions to move freely.

September 2011, the Chinese Society of Military Sciences, Major General Luo Yuan, deputy secretary general at the meeting pointed out: "The United States 'first island chain' there are four main allies, but also in trying to contain China."

China to enhance military still go a long way to beat with the U.S. Navy in melee combat power. U.S. officials said China's current strategy is to delay as long as possible the arrival of U.S. troops to take the opportunity to take over the disputed islands or waters.

Public occasions, such as Gates, Mullen and other Pentagon leaders have said the United States is willing to increase in recent military relations with China. Privately, China has been the focus of U.S. planning.

In 2008, the U.S. military held a series of exercises (Pacific Vision), the test in the Pacific on the one "well-matched opponents' capabilities. Within the U.S., the phrase is widely used on behalf of that China.

This had helped to carry out these exercises have been retired Air Force Gen. Carol? Chandler said: "My motivation is to consider all of the Western Pacific. It is clear that Chinese people have been making investments in order to weaken us in the Pacific the advantage. "

These exercises test the United States in the region from the land and the aircraft carrier, the use of air power capability. People who are familiar with these exercises have claimed that they learned about the potential conflicts the United States strategic thinking.

Pentagon officials, the United States now known as the "Air Sea Battle," the official strategy is to play a role in the development of a better way in the Pacific war against China's new weapons.

The U.S. Navy is developing new weapons for its aircraft carriers, and the ability to carry these weapons, the new aircraft. In the new "Ford" aircraft carrier, deck catapult used to launch aircraft will be powered by electromagnetic rather than steam-powered, which makes the aircraft carrier to launch faster.

In addition, Washington is developing a carrier-based unmanned aerial vehicle is considered a breakthrough, these unmanned U.S. aircraft carrier will be able to more effectively when away from the coast to carry out operations.

U.S. Navy Office of weapons and attack UAV William - Sharon Major General to the UAV's flight last year, compared to Americans, Eugene? Erie (Eugene Ely) achieved the first flight; 1991, the Queen driving The first aircraft landed successfully on a navy ship.

Air Force in the Pacific want to have a long-range bombers to use. Navy and Air Force fighter flight is relatively short. Is not aerial refueling in the case, the effective range of existing aircraft carrier is about 575 miles.

U.S. military strategists said that China's submarines, aircraft and missiles may force the carrier away from the coast of his country. Andrew, vice president of the RAND Corporation - Horn said: "remote operation capabilities will become the basis for future U.S. Pacific strategy, we have access to long-range bombers. For the Air Force, there is no longer important than this has."

In addition, the United States is also considering the establishment of new land base, which will deploy its troops throughout the Asia Pacific region.

Recently, President Obama announced that the U.S. will use the new base in Australia, including a major port city of Darwin. Although most of the U.S. military base may not maintain a permanent presence, but if the conflict the United States will be able to deploy the aircraft in these bases.

Taking into account the development of China's military and the U.S. defense budget crunch, a number of U.S. military officers began to think about now is not the United States should reconsider its carrier (such as "Ford" sign) of the strategy depends.

If the U.S. aircraft carrier attack would endanger the lives of as many as 5,000 seafarers - U.S. military operations in Iraq than in even more casualties.

In 2011, Captain Henry Hendricks (Henry Hendrix), and retired Marine Corps Lt. Col. Noel Williams (Noel Williams) in his published in the "process" magazine article pointed out: "'Ford 'aircraft carrier in the United States' Ford' first-class aircraft carrier ship, she should be the last one. "

U.S. Air Force research and development of a heavy task is undoubtedly the first F-35 fighters. Is not yet clear development of the F-35 will suffer due to defense budget cuts to adjust the New Deal. Some analysts believe that the F-35 will continue to develop three versions, but the next five years, production will be reduced. Currently, Japan and Israel are actively seeking to buy F-35 fighters, which to some extent, to reduce the U.S. budget to reduce their own problems.
