"Military Martial Plane" Author: Da Ivan
According to the report of " Global Times ", on September 7, the "Oriental-2022" joint military exercise hosted by Russia, more than 10,000 Chinese countries and more than 50,000 soldiers participated in the "Oriental-2022" joint military exercise hosted by Russia, presided over by Russia, more than 10,000 Chinese countries, and participated by more than 50,000 soldiers, successfully concluded at the Sergeyevsky training ground in Ussurisk, Russia ( Shuangchengzi ).
At the closing ceremony, General Yevkurov, the chief director of the "Oriental-2022" exercise and deputy minister of the Russian Ministry of Defense, said in his speech that the "Oriental-2022" exercise has strengthened cooperation, enhanced friendship and consolidated unity among the participating countries; the commander of the China Joint Battle Command stated in his speech that the "Oriental-2022" joint military exercise has enhanced combat friendship with all parties involved and deepened mutual trust and cooperation. Subsequently, more than 40 Chinese soldiers were jointly commended for their outstanding performance in this exercise.
The Chinese army sent more than 2,000 people to participate in the exercise
For the 8-day joint military exercise, Ivan Da believes that there are a lot of details worthy of analysis, whether from the tactical level, the combat level, or the strategic level.
The tactical level significance of "Oriental-2022"
Let's talk about the tactical level first. On the tactical level, let alone the Russian army, there are two details worth mentioning in the Chinese People's Liberation Army's participating troops: html l1
First, it is said that strict electromagnetic spectrum management and electromagnetic signal control were carried out. According to the shooting images and reports released in the news, the Tactical Group of the People's Liberation Army participating in the Chinese People's Liberation Army has launched a large number of radio communications and direction finding equipment in the field camping area. At the same time, all officers and soldiers of the participating troops were issued confidential mobile phones, and it is reported that these mobile phones can communicate directly with the country.
's intention in electromagnetic spectrum management, electromagnetic signal control, and battlefield electronic confrontation largely reflects the battlefield awareness, confrontation awareness and confidentiality awareness of the participating troops of the People's Liberation Army are constantly improving. In addition, on the battlefield of the conflict between the Russian army in Ukraine, various civilian mobile phones are constantly banned, and the electronic warfare forces of the Russian and Ukrainian armies are all relying on the opponent's civil communication signals to intercept direction finding, reversely calibrate the opponent's garrison points, and then carry out artillery strikes. In a sense, we are "demonstrating" the correct posture for the Russian army to manage electromagnetic spectrum.
Second, during this exercise, the Chinese People's Liberation Army deployed fighter jets directly from airports in China for the first time. flew directly to the exercise field in Russia, launched anti-radiation missile to carry out air defense compression production war, and then returned to China.
-5 A was equipped with "Crazy Blast One", which allowed the then Chinese Air Force to have tactical nuclear strike capabilities
flew from an air base in China to Ussurisk . Although the distance is not far, on the one hand, it needs to cross Russian airspace and Russia needs to conduct ground command and guidance for our fighter jets. How could the Soviet Union and Russia help us implement such guidance back then? After all, what the Soviet Union was most worried about during the Cold War was that the Chinese Air Force's attack aviation carried the "Crazy No. 1" tactical nuclear weapons to bomb the Soviet Union's Siberian Railway and Railway Marshalling Station... Now Russia is willing to open such a gap, and the reason is worth pondering.
YJ-91 anti-radiation missile
On the other hand, according to public information, the air defense suppression aircraft dispatched by the Chinese Air Force this time is the J-10B fighter jet, which is in line with the configuration of the J-10B that has been displayed at the Zhuhai Air Show many times, and they all have "echoed" the configuration of the YJ-91 anti-radiation missile and the direction finding pod.All signs show that the Chinese Air Force currently seems to be using the J-10B fighter as a dedicated SEAD model (destroying enemy ground air defense firepower network), similar to the US military's F-16CJ wild weasel fighter, which requires further reports and confirmation.
"Oriental-2022" campaign level significance
What I then talked about is the content at the battle level. At the battle level, Ivan believes that the most worth mentioning and most incomprehensible is the scale of the Russian army's participation.
According to the information released by the Russian side, the Russian military participated in the exercise teams this time were composed of the Eastern Russian Military Region as the main force, with a total of more than 50,000 troops mobilized, and more than 5,000 weapons and equipment of various models were mobilized. Among the participating troops in more than a dozen other countries, except for the largest number of troops participating in the performance, which mobilized more than 2,000 people, more than 300 vehicles of various types (equipment), 321 fixed-wing aircraft, and 3 warships, the participating troops in the performance of the other countries are almost negligible.
In other words, given the current situation of the Russian army, it can mobilize more than 50,000 people to run to the distant Ussurisk to carry out the "Oriental-2022" joint campaign exercise. Considering that the total mobile force of the Russian Army is only more than 200,000, it is impossible to keep any force in other places. It is necessary to reserve tens of thousands of people to defend against the military mobilization of NATO in the direction of Baltic Three Kingdoms, as a strategic reserve, and respond to the emergency situation in Caucasus and Central Asia.
While carrying out "special military operations" in Ukrainian , it also takes into account the possible emergencies in multiple hot spots, which means that the Russian army still has a lot of "leisure efforts". In fact, Russia itself said the same thing. Many Russian military commentators believe that the Russian army can launch "Oriental-2022" in the Far East while Ukraine launches military operations, which means that the Russian army has the ability to launch strategic-level military operations in both strategic directions at the same time.
However, from the perspective of Ivan, the Russian army is now so confident, be careful that the slap in the face is too fast. Not to mention the more than 70,000 regular troops, more than 20,000 National Guards, 60,000 to 70,000 militias and reserve troops on the Ukrainian battlefield, it is very difficult to maintain a relatively complete front. Taking the recent counter-offensive momentum of the Ukrainian army, the Ukrainian army was beaten back in Khelson , but the 93rd Aircraft Brigade and the Special Forces carried out an unexpected attack in Balacreya, and attacked more than 30 kilometers in depth from the Russian army in two days and nights.
In contrast, the Russian army only had a small number of Luhansk People's Army reserve troops and Bashkir 's SOBR in Balacreya. The regular army troops did not know where they went... This is a proof that the Russian army lacked enough troops on the Ukrainian battlefield, and could only carry out offensive and defense in one battle direction, and fought in other battle directions. I think if the Ukrainian army continues to attack in depth, attack Shevchenkovo, or even approach Kupyansk, how can the Russian Western Military Region come back to explain this? If there are so many mobile forces, wouldn’t it be nice to be invested in the Ukrainian battlefield?
"Oriental-2022" strategic significance
Finally, at the strategic level, what Ivan is most satisfied with on the strategic level is undoubtedly that the Chinese and Russian militaries did not delay the pragmatic cooperation between the two countries at the strategic, combat and tactical levels in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian military conflict.
my country has not really stopped cooperation with Russia and stopped joint military exercises with the Russian army because of some strange and strange talks such as domestic clamor, belief that it should "abandon Russia", stand with the West, and even "connecting Europe to make the United States".
After all, from the perspective of military strategy, the current situation in the Far East is basically the United States trying to use Taiwan Strait as a "detonation point" by continuously arming Japan and winning over South Korea. Therefore, in the military situation in the Far East, we and Russia have real and direct common interests. Having common interests will inevitably lead to strategic cooperation, which is nothing to say.
From a geopolitical perspective, the current form of major power confrontation seems to have returned to the typical dual confrontation mode of sea and land. It is mainly reflected in the United States located in the New World, trying to weaken the countries located in the Old World through Britain and arming Japan, thereby ensuring that the "world order under the United States" can continue to operate on the established track. This reflects the sea power countries located in the New World and the outer sea of the Old World, trying to siege and lock down the land power countries located in the Old World by sending influence from the sea to the land, and ultimately attempting to fragment the Old World to achieve the action of "dividing and conquering them".
Therefore, the more this happens, the more land-powered countries located in the old continent should ensure their integrity and try to stand together "back-to-back" to counter the geostrategic strategies of the maritime power countries to the old continent. Europe is obviously useless in this process. Europe itself is already quite broken, and the Russian-Ukrainian military conflict not only failed to promote the process of European integration, but instead accelerated the division of Europe.
Therefore, China and Russia, the two major land power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power power, China and Russia should be more important. This will always be invincible in the already developed geopolitical strategies of maritime states.
I am afraid that the winter of Europe will not be better this year...
Finally, I believe everyone has seen the current situation. "Winter is coming" (winter is coming). In the Russian-Ukrainian military conflict, Russia has taken a huge strategic initiative in strategic respects with its dominant position in the fields of energy and food. On the contrary, we always have the problem of strong external dependence in the fields of energy and food.
In the context of the arrival of Lingdong, I believe no one is willing to push a country with abundant energy reserves and sufficient wheat and meat production capacity. Especially when maritime routes are no longer safe and the import of food from North America may be cut off at any time, our strategic cooperation with Russia has obviously extraordinary significance for our own energy supply and food security.
Will the Sino-Russian "Gymnasium Competition" in June be staged again in the next few days? It is also worth looking forward to
Therefore, Ivan's viewpoint, we are with Russia's "Oriental-2022" military exercise , which is currently very good, but there is still room for further improvement. For example, after the exercise, add a follow-up program. The navies of China and Russia jointly carry out strategic cruises around Japan like last year. This is all expected. We can see if the Maritime Self-Defense Force has discovered the Chinese and Russian fleet in the next few days. In short, the cooperation between China and Russia at multiple levels such as military, political, and economic is still worthy of our continued attention.
