The Chinese Coast Guard water cannon is amazingly powerful, but the actual combat power is too great, and the export of electric water cannons is restricted?

Under the strict safety considerations and technical regulatory framework, we have to regret to announce that the electric water cannon used by the China Coast Guard has been restricted from being exported to the international market due to its shocking and destructive power displayed in actual combat. This news may come as a surprise to many people, but the seemingly gentle and harmless coast guard water cannon actually contains a power comparable to that of conventional weapons.

The Chinese Coast Guard water cannon is amazingly powerful, but the actual combat power is too great, and the export of electric water cannons is restricted?

Currently, the coast guard ships of our country are equipped with advanced electric water cannons of the PSKD family. The maximum water pressure that this water cannon can produce is a staggering 145 megapascals. In contrast, the pressure range of the water cannons on our common fire trucks is usually between 0.2 MPa and 1.6 MPa, and even large water cannons require multiple firefighters to work together to stabilize the direction of the spray. This means that the water cannon on the coast guard ship is far more powerful than the water cannon of the fire truck, as high as 400 times, and its water pressure per cubic centimeter is as high as 1,450 kilograms.

Once hit by such a water cannon, it feels like being hit head-on by a speeding compact car, and the impact is enough to be unbearable. What's even more amazing is that this water cannon has a range of far more than 200 meters, and just imagining its attack scene is enough to make people's hearts beat like a drum. And unlike the instantaneous impact in a car accident, the attack of the water cannon is continuous, which means that its damage to the human body will also be long-term and severe.

Do you still think that the use of water cannons to drive away other countries' ships is only a symbolic measure, in fact, many well-observed and enthusiastic netizens have found that the professional quality of the coast guard personnel who operate the water cannons to drive away the operation is really admirable, they can always accurately aim the water cannons at the Philippine ships to strike, what many people do not know is that each water cannon is equipped with advanced automatic positioning and aiming devices, which can adjust the direction of attack in real time according to the movement of the target. It is understood that now there is a more advanced handle remote control version available. Whether it is the law enforcement video released by our coast guard ship or the victim video taken from the perspective of the Philippine ship, it is clearly shown that whenever the mainland coast guard ship activates the water cannon operation mode, its goal is always very clear, that is, to launch a fierce attack directly on the cockpit of the opponent, and then the power system of the Philippine ship will be paralyzed.

Let's take a closer look at the development process and uniqueness behind this breathtaking electric water cannon. Why was this electric water cannon, known as the patron saint of the sea, independently developed by the mainland scientific research team, and only equipped on mainland coast guard ships, but not widely promoted around the world? The core secret of this undoubtedly comes from the cutting-edge technology and unique technology integrated into the research and development process.

Looking back on the brilliant achievements of the sand blowing reclamation project on the South China Sea Islands of the mainland, it is not difficult to find that the amazing ability of the sand blowing boat during operation is the source of inspiration for the development of this electric water cannon. Sand blowers pump sand from deep seabed, pressurize them in the holds, and then eject them through the barrels at extremely high speeds. This electric water cannon cleverly applies this principle to the spraying of water.

During the development process, the scientific research team not only replaced the sea sand with seawater, but also designed a delicate water flow regulating valve at the tail of the water cannon. This design not only considers key factors such as angle and distance, but also gives the water cannon the flexibility to deal with various complex environments and positions on the battlefield, such as the water cannon device equipped with the mainland coast guard ship, which can not only fire a direct water column with strong impact, but also realize the launch of various water flow forms such as atomization and strafing, so as to adapt to different combat needs.

What's more, the latest model of the water cannon also introduces a pulse firing function. When the impact is adjusted to its maximum power, the water cannon fired at close range can easily tear down even a half-meter-thick wall, and its explosive power has surpassed that of many small munitions. This powerful feature makes the water cannon more practical in peacetime than close defense guns and naval guns, and relatively less difficult to operate.

The reasons for the lack of water cannon weapons in other countries are simple and straightforward. For a large country like the United States, which is accustomed to consuming large quantities of ammunition, water cannon weapons may seem somewhat insignificant; However, small and medium-sized countries like the Philippines, due to the limitations of their own technological strength, are indeed unable to develop similar equipment on their own. It is worth mentioning that as early as 2022, the mainland has officially taken strict measures to control the export of water cannon weapons to ensure that the heavy weapons of these countries will not be lost overseas and avoid the adverse consequences caused by the improper use of water cannons.

So, in addition to water cannons, what other remarkable and powerful strengths do mainland coast guard ships have? In the list of equipment of the mainland coast guard department, the water cannon is undoubtedly one of the most eye-catching main equipment. In reality, however, the Coast Guard ships are also equipped with a little-known and mysterious weapon – a directional sonic device, often referred to as a "strong rope" device. The device uses the principle of a high-SPL array to achieve long-range output of high-intensity sound waves. This sonic weapon can cause a certain degree of damage to the central nervous system and auditory system of the target creature at medium and close ranges, and may even cause the target to lose sight in a short period of time.

In the armament of the mainland coast guard ships, it is equipped with a Johnson & Johnson device with excellent range, which has an effective range of 3,000 to 5,000 meters. The equipment is unique in that it is a non-lethal weapon, cleverly circumventing the strict restrictions of international conventions, while carrying out missions without fear of potential international diplomacy. In fact, the mainland navy has long been in the ocean-going escort mission, with the help of this advanced equipment to successfully cope with anti-piracy and daily escort missions.

According to sources from the crew of the Philippine Guard, when the mainland used this Johnson & Johnson weapon, it caused significant damage to the Philippine crew, and some of the crew members were even temporarily incapacitated. Even the Filipino fishermen involved in the operation suffered unbearable hardships. This incident once again highlights the decisiveness and efficiency of the mainland coast guard in responding to small-scale provocations in the surrounding area.

Over the years, through countless actual combat exercises and practical verification, the mainland coast guard department has accumulated rich experience, and its strategies and methods have become increasingly mature and scientific. We firmly believe that in the face of any infringement of the mainland's maritime rights and interests, they will unswervingly defend the blue land of the motherland and contribute their strength to the protection of maritime rights and interests.
