Recently, a news about the confrontation between the mainland coast guard ship 4103 and the Philippine patrol boat at Ren'ai Jiao in the South China Sea swept the Internet, making many netizens' eyes widen.
It turned out that our 1,400-ton "sea fortress" actually had three more eye-catching holes on its body after colliding with a Philippine boat with a capacity of only 300 tons. This can't help but make people scratch their heads: Could it be that the large tonnage means that the skin is rough and the meat is thick, why is it still hit by the "hanging color"?
Wait, don't worry, let's unveil this mystery for you. As the popular saying on the Internet goes: "Tonnage is not everything, the key is the internal structure." "In today's rapid development of science and technology, building a warship is not as simple as simply stacking steel, but paying attention to scientific and reasonable design and layout.
As we all know, the mainland's Haijing 4103 ship has a well-known background - it is transformed from the mainland's decommissioned Type 056 frigate. This is a typical "waste utilization + efficient transformation" move, just like netizens often say: "The old mobile phone can be used as a backup machine if it is replaced with a shell, and a retired warship can become a weapon to protect the sea frontier with a slight modification." "This not only properly resettled the decommissioned warships, but also rapidly expanded the strength of the coast guard fleet, avoiding the waste of valuable military resources."

However, when it comes to the design of warships, here's a little-known cyber trivia: modern warships have long abandoned the "turtle shell" concept of comprehensive armor coverage in order to pursue higher speed and combat flexibility.
It's like today's smartphones are thin and light, not bulky and sturdy like old-fashioned brick big brothers. According to the information, the thickness of the hull of the non-core part of the 056 frigate is about 15-30 mm, not to mention the small number, it is more than enough to resist general wear and small arms attacks, but in the face of high-speed impact, it is a little difficult.
Imagine a supercar full of black technology, although it can speed on the track, but if the front is a small but powerful off-road motorcycle, it is likely to be "injured" in an accidental collision.
In the same way, when our 4103 coast guard ship faced this "stunned" 300-ton Philippine patrol boat, although the tonnage was crushed, it still suffered a loss under certain conditions.
When it comes to the actual situation of confrontation at sea, it is often like a "cat and mouse game" staged on the sea, rather than a direct "hard encounter". The main task of the coast guard vessel is law enforcement and surveillance, not military operations.
Therefore, in an actual conflict, the two sides are more likely to engage in a "psychological game" by chasing each other and ramming with low intensity, rather than easily using shipborne weapons, after all, according to the provisions of international law and modern diplomatic norms, once a hot weapon is fired, it means that the situation may heat up sharply and move to the brink of war. Some netizens jokingly said: "It's like two martial arts masters competing for internal strength, whoever draws the sword first loses the momentum." ”
Although it may seem surprising on the surface that the 4103 ship of the Mainland Coast Guard was knocked out of three holes by a small-tonnage Philippine patrol boat in the South China Sea standoff, a closer look at the reasons behind it actually includes multiple factors such as the design characteristics of modern ships, the practical strategies of maritime law enforcement, and the handling of international relations.
This is like the sentence we often hear in life: "Life is like chess, and layout is far better than sub-strength." "In the vast South China Sea, every ship is telling this truth in its own way, tonnage is not the key to everything, scientific design, reasonable response, and precise policy implementation are the keys to success. It is precisely under the guidance of such principles that China's coast guard fleet firmly and effectively safeguards the country's maritime rights and interests, and even if it occasionally "hangs the lottery", it does not damage its true character of loyalty and responsibility.
