Recently, the Zhuhai Airshow in our country ended with a large number of weapons on display. And then, as soon as our air show was over, the US Deputy Secretary of Defense began to speak, saying that we, China, posed a threat to Guam and Hawaii.
So how did we threaten it, and what kind of measures did they have, we asked military expert Wang Yunfei to explain it to us. This is the latest one of the US defense departments, a accusation against China, in fact, just a few days ago, China and the US defense departments also had communication, saying that in the future, dialogue should be strengthened to reduce misjudgment, and then came such a sentence, simply "only state officials are allowed to set fires and not allow the people to light lamps.", to say that in this part of East Asia, which country is the most threatening, it goes without saying that it must be you the United States, how many troops the United States has in Japan, 45,000 people, the Seventh Fleet, the 18th Air Company, the 35th Air Company, the Seventh Fleet, the 18th Air Company, the 35th Air Company, There is also the Third Expeditionary Force of the Marine Corps and so on, with at least 20 ships and more than 300 aircraft, plus the South Korean AND US Eighth Army, and an aviation company in this place, which poses a huge threat to China.
Now say that China poses a threat to Guam and Hawaii, first of all, one is that you and the United States forced it out, right, I can't always say that you have a huge threat to me, I don't have any anti-threat capability, if you say that there is a threat to Guam, Hawaii, or even he said that there is a threat to Australia, is there or not, let's be honest, not a little, there is, for example, China's long-range ballistic missiles, and our bombers, our bombers can also fly over, if you carry cruise missiles, you can indeed construct the ability to strike at the Guam base. As for Hawaii, it is relatively weak, too far 8,000 kilometers, and it is impossible for our aircraft to reach, unless our aircraft carriers have passed, aircraft carriers submarines, but this threat is actually relatively small, including Australia, Australia, and now it is only a theoretical threat, for example, our aircraft flying to the south of the Nansha, or even flying to the vicinity of Jakarta to play cruise missiles, whether it can constitute a strike capability against Darwin Port, it can be constituted. In fact, this ability is relatively weak, and the second point is that our ability is far from enough, especially not enough, and we actually have almost no conventional strike capability on the US mainland.
Yes, and the United States can Chinese mainland, the vast majority of the hinterland, can constitute a conventional strike capability, this capability is asymmetrical, there should be a balance of combat strength between the big powers, this can prevent the occurrence of war, and if the balance is lost, it is just prone to war, so the second aspect of our ability is not enough, the third aspect, is our continent, in order to ensure the security of our own country, in order to maintain the unity of the country, we now have to greatly strengthen, our anti-deterrence capability, right? We are now able to use the entire sea and air force in the coastal waters, and at the doorstep of our homes, but the ocean is common to everyone, and the ocean is also a security barrier for China. In fact, we still have a lot of shortcomings, and we still need to make great strides in development, so the accusation of the US deputy defense minister, saying that China has threatened Guam, Hawaii, we should have such a capability itself, we are not enough of this capability, we can't just say that you blamed us, we will not develop, I remember the first few months of this year, when the Congress approved the budget, it was the military application, it was to build a land-based Aegis in Guam to defend against Chinese missiles, but the Congress did not approve, on the contrary, It is to strengthen the construction of this land-based Aegis in Hawaii, and it can be said that he is not just talking about this, he really feels the threat that China is posing to him, so he may retreat step by step, he is an expectation of the future, and it is possible that China can constitute a deterrent ability to Hawaii in a short period of time.
Let me give you a simple example, for example, our new nuclear submarine, if equipped with long-range cruise missiles, this can indeed pose a threat to Hawaii, as for the aircraft carrier just said, Hawaii now has a deterrent capability, but in fact, the cost is relatively large, we China has broken through the direction in the future, and at present it can form a threat to Hawaii, mainly our underwater nuclear submarines, but this capability also has a process of accumulation, of course, a longer distance, to the United States like Alaska, the United States mainland For example, our hypersonic missiles, nuclear submarines with better performance, and so on, the accumulation of these forces still needs a process, and it cannot be achieved within three or five years, but his words remind China, to the United States, sometimes you have to think like this, he is afraid of what you give him, is it right, what you lack, you quickly make up for it, imperialism is a paper tiger, bullying the soft and afraid of hard, of course, I firmly believe that he said this deterrent ability, Probably in the future, it will far exceed the extent of his worries .
