At the critical moment, Qiu Yi made a calculation, but what did Qiu Yi specifically say? What did the new PLA aircraft carrier sea trial include?
Recently, the mainland's third aircraft carrier, the Fujian, went to sea to carry out its first navigation test. According to the progress of the aircraft carrier construction project, this sea trial mainly tested and verified the reliability and stability of the power and power systems of the Fujian ship. For a period of time, the news about the upcoming sea trials of the Fujian ship has hardly been broken, which also reflects the expectations of the Chinese people for the Fujian ship, and after the sea trials, the Fujian ship will also be officially listed in the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy, becoming another powerful combat force of the navy. What is interesting is that at the time of the official sea trials of the Fujian, the United States went so far as to openly slander the mainland's Fujian ship as "copying," but who did it "copy"? The United States could not say why. When it comes to electromagnetic catapult technology, it seems that the Fujian warship is more mature than the US Ford-class aircraft carrier, but could it be that it will still be a "copy" of the United States? Obviously, the lies of these US politicians and media really come out of their mouths, and there is no logic at all.
Generally speaking, it is mainly divided into two aspects: the first is related to equipment, and the second is related to people. First of all, it is related to equipment, which is easy to understand, mainly to test the reliability, maintenance, testing, support, environmental adaptability and safety of aircraft carrier-related equipment. Ensure that the ship as a whole completes all combat tasks in a unit of time, including deployment tasks, tasks during navigation, etc.; secondly, related to people, including habitability, and even people's experience of the environment, etc., for example, whether the lighting in the house is suitable, whether the noise is suitable, these things must be tested. After the Fujian ship passed the sea trial and officially entered service, our navy also entered the era of three aircraft carriers. At that time, one can be maintained in the factory, one can be maintained in training, and another will be on combat duty, so that the Chinese Navy can maintain an aircraft carrier presence in relevant important sea areas at all times.
As the first catapult-type aircraft carrier designed and built by the mainland completely independently, the Fujian is equipped with electromagnetic catapult and blocking devices, and has adopted many new domestic technologies. In view of the fact that the Fujian ship has adopted a lot of new domestic technologies, some analysts believe that the sea trials of the Fujian ship may be a little longer than the previous Liaoning and Shandong ships, because it accommodates a lot of new technologies. These new technologies are not only individual technologies to reach the technical maturity level of design, but also cooperate with each other to form a whole system, and the technical maturity level must also meet the design standards.
In addition, the first sea trial of the Fujian warship has also aroused strong concern from public opinion on the island, and Taiwan's retired general Li Zhengjie assessed that compared with the Liaoning, the Fujian's combat power is at least 10 times that of the Liaoning. Since Li Zhengjie said this, what is his basis? First, he believes that the radar system of the Fujian warship is more than that of the Jian-35 fighter than that of the Liaoning; second, the speed at which the Fujian destroyer's deck electromagnetic catapult takes off in one minute, which is five times that of the Liaoning; third, the Fujian warship has a fast electromagnetic ejection speed, and there is also an Air Police-600, and its reconnaissance range is five to 10 times stronger than that of a helicopter.
Another media person on the island analyzed that if Chinese mainland has three complete aircraft carrier fleets, it will completely change the layout of the entire East Asia; for example, Chinese mainland has an aircraft carrier fleet, and if it is placed between Japan and Guam, once the tension in the Taiwan Strait escalates, it will increase the difficulty of the United States and Japan to intervene. He pointed out that once the Fujian warship is officially put into service and cooperates with the existing two aircraft carrier battle groups, the Liaoning and Shandong, the PLA's anti-access and area-denial capabilities will be greatly enhanced, and at that time, the so-called "first island chain" of the United States will exist in name only, and the US military will have to retreat to the so-called "second island chain." Of course, at that time, it will be the DPP authorities and the "Taiwan independence" forces on the island who will not be able to sleep well.
