my country's third aircraft carrier, "Fujian Ship", has launched, which has made netizens from many provinces envious. So will China's 23 provinces, 4 municipalities, 5 autonomous regions, and 2 special administrative regions have the opportunity to name aircraft carriers?
China's three aircraft carriers
aircraft carriers are named provincial administrative regions
Fujian ship
China's existing three aircraft carriers are Liaoning ship , Shandong ship and Fujian ship. If China benchmarks against the United States in the future, there will be 11 ships in service and 3 ships under construction in the United States, and then China still has 11 provinces to be named.
These 11 names are assumed to be Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hebei, Hubei, Sichuan, Henan, plus four municipalities directly under the Central Government, including Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing and Tianjin, with a total of 11.
amphibious assault ship is also named provincial administrative regions
amphibious assault ships and aircraft carriers
Currently, the two amphibious assault ships in China are Hainan ships and Guangxi ships, and the third one is expected to be Anhui ships.
Amphibious assault ship
If the benchmark is 10 active ships in the United States and one under construction, there are 8 provinces in China that have the opportunity to be named. Judging from the naming rules of Hainan and Guangxi ships, the naming provinces of amphibious assault ships are generally provinces with relatively small economic scale, and Shanxi, Heilongjiang, Jiangxi, Hunan, Shaanxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, Gansu, Qinghai and other provinces have the opportunity.
Don't forget that there are also cruisers and battleships and battleships There are still opportunities to name them after provincial administrative regions
US Navy Ticonderoga class cruisers
There are 22 active cruisers in the United States and 5 have been retired to compare with each other. Then the name of Chinese provincial administrative regions is not enough.
But the cruiser category is slowly being eliminated. China may not necessarily develop this category. If it develops, the number will not be large. 5 autonomous regions are enough.
Since World War II , aircraft carriers have become popular, and battleships without air combat capabilities have gradually been eliminated; cruisers have also become too large and bulky with the advancement of modular anti-ship missile technology, which has gradually replaced the first two positions in function and become the main force of warship in the long-distance naval warship . With the strengthening of armor and firepower, the tonnage of the new destroyer has gradually reached the cruiser level of 10,000 tons.
American battleship USS Missouri (Part 2) sailed side by side with the Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier (Part 1)
battleship has been completely eliminated, and China will definitely not develop this category.
In the movie " Super Battleship ", you can see the style of the battleship: the USS Missouri, which was originally a water museum, was restarted, and the alien communication camp on Oahu was bombarded with the artillery on the ship, and fired with the alien battleship.
Other situations
The remaining two special administrative regions, Taiwan provinces, etc. can be assigned to aircraft carriers depending on the situation.
Jilin City, Jilin Province
In addition, Jilin Province has an embarrassing problem, the province name is the same as Jilin City, the second largest city in the province. This leads to a problem. If the city first named the destroyer or the frigate of , the province name will be useless; if Jilin is used to name the aircraft carrier or amphibious assault ship, then Jilin City will no longer be used to name the destroyer or frigate.
destroyer, generally named after large and medium-sized cities,
destroyer is one of the most important types of ships in the modern navy, so the naming is mainly based on provincial capitals, sub-provincial cities, and regional central cities. For example, the 055 missile destroyer ( Nanchang , Lhasa, Dalian , Wuxi , etc.), the 052D missile destroyer, etc.
055
052D missile destroyer is the most built missile destroyer in the Chinese Navy. The first ship Kunming (172) was officially listed on March 21, 2014.
052D
052D destroyer For the first time, this ship type allows the PLA Navy to launch a variety of ship-based weapons such as surface ships air defense, anti-ship or anti-submarine . It can attack surface ships and submarine individually or in coordination with other naval forces. It has strong regional air defense and sea combat capabilities, and also has ground strike capabilities. It is expected that more than 37 ships will be built.
frigates, generally named after medium and small cities,
frigates refer to surface ships that cooperate with other forces in the nearshore sea area or perform individually annihilated enemy light ships, or carry out warning and escort tasks for large attack ships in the ocean. They are the largest ships in the Green Water Navy for nearshore combat purposes, or medium ships assigned guard tasks by Blue Water Navy long-range ocean. They are second only to the destroyers sailing in the ocean in tonnage, with a displacement of about 2,000-7,500 tons.
China's frigate represented by 054A and light frigate represented by 056A. Although the naming of the frigate is named after medium and small cities, it is still prefecture-level cities, including large cities, such as Yantai ship , Xuzhou ship, Nantong ship, etc.
056A
Light frigate is generally named as a small city, mainly based on prefecture-level cities, and even county-level cities like Yiwu have appeared, such as Sanmenxia ship, Suqian ship, Yiwu ship, etc.
