Hey, this is Latiao
Not long ago, the Fujian ship was launched. This is my country's third aircraft carrier and the first aircraft carrier with the function of ejection .
003 is in the water, and the big pig trotters who like the new and dislike the old have begun to give birth to four children again.
So about 004, it has become a hot topic. So whose house will 004 settle in?
Here is an interesting little tidbit. The encyclopedia of the Fujian ship shows that it is fully loaded with more than 80,000 tons. The word "yu" in
is very spiritual.
Take a look at this picture and you will understand it instantly. I have to admire the art of language.
Therefore, this remaining word has triggered heated discussions among netizens.
We are fully capable of producing the remaining 20,000 tons.
There was a case before, 055 said more than 60,000, but the result was more than 80,000.
The Fujian ship was launched, and everyone paid tribute to the veterans.
In the past two days, a message has rushed to the hot list. The content is to pay homage to the deceased veteran sailors.
It’s just that the place and method of worship are different. The address of
is at St. John's Cemetery in the UK. The objects of their worship are Beiyang Navy sailors, and the items of worship are photos of aircraft carriers.
According to reports, every time a giant ship is launched, some local international students will go to worship it.
expresses our respect for the martyrs who sacrificed their lives heroically.
These ancestors whose bones are buried in a foreign country were actually officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Navy from 1881 to 1887.
They went to England to receive the purchased warships and sail them back home to strengthen their naval strength.
ended up dying in a foreign country due to some reasons.
According to reports, these tombstones are all in Chinese style and face the east. Everyone understands the meaning of
.
As far as naval history is concerned, the history of the modern navy is humiliating. Although
has powerful ships and cannons, it can no longer prevent the fate of being wiped out.
It has been more than 130 years, and now our navy can definitely stand out among the heroes, and no one dares to provoke at will.
It’s not time for others to show off their power with just a few broken boats.
Those international students placed photos and flowers in front of the tombstone not only to comfort the martyrs, but also to show their strength and pride.
Two lines of poetry come to mind: A teacher who never forgets the past and the future is an old man who remembers family sacrifices and never forgets to report.
Not only abroad, but also at home, many netizens paid homage and informed the martyrs of the good news.
Everything they once dreamed of has been realized one by one. Why does
start with 16? Aircraft carrier number speculation
Now that we have expressed our condolences to the martyrs, let’s talk about the purpose of these battleships.
Throughout the ages, everything has its origin and meaning.
Aircraft carriers, such important weapons of a great power, are naturally not named and launched casually. They are all very particular.
my country currently has three aircraft carriers, Liaoning, , Shandong, and Fujian.
all have different meanings.
The first ship is numbered 16, Liaoning ship . Many netizens have always believed that the number 16 of
was achieved after 16 years of hard work, so it was numbered 16.
On the surface, this is indeed the case, but it is precisely because of the superficial situation that Latiao disagrees.
is too casual, has no inherent meaning, and does not conform to the meaning of a powerful weapon.
So if you want to understand the meaning, you need to combine it with the modern history of our country, and you will find it and suddenly realize it.
There is a profound historical charm in all of them, and it is also a history of the revival of the navy.
In modern times, we have four major naval , namely Beiyang , Nanyang, Fujian, and Guangdong.
Although the equipment is very strong, in actual combat, it is vulnerable.
The following is a brief introduction to these four major water divisions.
Guangdong Navy , was established in 1664 and is mainly responsible for the defense of the South China Sea. It has more than 400 large and small ships, but most of them are wooden ships and their firepower is very weak. But the force is the strongest, with 20,000 people at its peak.
Guan Tianpei, Lin Zexu, Deng Tingzhen and other famous figures are all from this fleet.
When Zhang Zhidong took over in 1884, the Guangdong Navy owned 37 warships with a total tonnage of over 11,000.
The battleships are three cruisers , Guang A, Guang B , and Guang C, with a displacement of 1,300 tons.
However, the first two ships were blown up in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894.
Guang B was quite shameful. He was actually captured during the Weihaiwei Battle and was incorporated into Xiaori's navy.
In 1909, the Guangdong Navy was incorporated into the Ocean Fleet and the Yangtze River Fleet, and the organization came to an end.
Fujian Navy , Zuo Zongtang led the preparations in 1866 and was officially established in 1879. It has 67 ships, including 48 warships, with a total displacement of over 11,000 tons.
The main battleship "Yang Wu" is my country's first self-made steam-powered cruiser in modern times. It was launched on April 23, 1871.
It is the only one among the four major navies that has its own shipping factory. In 1884, the main force was wiped out in the Mawei naval battle between China and France.
In 1909, the remaining forces were merged and reorganized into the cruise fleet and the Yangtze River Fleet, and the Fujian Navy withdrew from the stage of history.
Nanyang Navy , began preparations in 1875 and was officially formed in 1887. It has 17 main battleships, totaling about 20,000 tons.
's comprehensive strength is second only to the Beiyang Navy.
The Nanyang Navy is the only fleet with its own training school. It is the Jiangnan Naval Academy located in Nanjing. After the Republic of China, it was changed to the Naval Officer School .
Brothers Lu Xun, the great literary figures, were once students of this school.
It is worth noting that the Nanyang Navy is the only fleet in modern history that has a record of winning naval battles - Zhenhai Defense Battle .
In 1909, the remaining forces were organized into the Yangtze River Fleet and Cruise Fleet, and the Nanyang Navy withdrew from the stage of history.
Beiyang Navy was prepared in 1875 and formally established in 1888, under the jurisdiction of Li Hongzhang.
There are 25 warships, 50 auxiliary warships, and 30 transport ships, with a total tonnage of more than 40,000 tons, and more than 4,000 officers and soldiers.
ranks first in Asia and ninth in the world.
The most famous among the fleet is Zhen8 Far 15 ships
"Seven Towns", which refers to Zhendong, Zhenxi, Zhennan, Zhenbei, Zhenzhong, Zhenbian and Zhenhai.
"Bayuan" designates Yuan, Zhenyuan, Jingyuan , Laiyuan, Zhiyuan, Jingyuan, Jiyuan , and Pingyuan.
The battleships Dingyuan and Zhenyuan both have a displacement of 7,335 tons. They are the only ironclads among the four fleets.
1894-1895, Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of 1894, , the Beiyang Navy withstood 7 attacks on Liugong Island, , and the main force was completely wiped out.
In 1909, the remaining forces were organized into the cruise fleet and Yangtze River Fleet, Beiyang Fleet ceased to exist.
7 These 15 ships of Zhenba Yuan were the strongest warships in the late Qing Dynasty at that time and the strongest in Asia. Their total tonnage exceeded 40,000 tons.
is equipped with more than 200 guns and more than 30 torpedoes .
So when you see this, you should already understand where the number 16 comes from.
Then it is reasonable for our aircraft carrier to start on the 16th, and then continue on the 17th, 18th, 19th...
Don’t forget the shame, accumulate more knowledge, revive the navy, and sail the sea.
The numbering has been straightened out, and the naming of the three aircraft carriers will be clear if you look at history. What will be the name of
004 type?
Among the many naval battles in modern times, the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War is the most famous. It broke out in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea.
The war started on July 25, 1894, and the Liaoning was commissioned on September 25, 2012.
The second Shandong ship was launched on April 26, 2017 and entered service on December 17, 2019.
Weihaiwei, Shandong is the place where the Beiyang Navy was founded, on December 17, 1888.
Look at this time, you say it’s a coincidence, who would believe it?
The third Fujian ship will be launched on June 17, 2022, and will enter service in one or two years.
On April 23, 1872, the "Yang Wu" was launched, and on August 23, 1884, the Battle of Mawei broke out. It is estimated that the service time will be similar.
Moreover, the day when the Fujian ship was launched on the 17th was also specially chosen.
So, is there any need to say who will get the fourth aircraft carrier?
Of course, unless there are big variables in the middle.
It is not unfounded to say that it is a Jiangsu ship. One of the garrison locations of the Nanyang Navy is Nanjing, and there is also the first naval academy in modern times.
Why is it said that the Guangdong ship is the most likely?
because nanhai .
The Liaoning ship and the Shandong ship just formed a state of guarding the capital.
The Fujian ship looked across the bay, a hundred nautical miles away, and sailed across it in a few minutes.
Only in the South China Sea, which is such a large territory, there is no heavy weapon from a big country to suppress it, and local snakes there are easy to drift away.
So whether it is from a strategic significance or a practical governance significance, that is the best choice.
What is the possibility of naming aircraft carriers in other provinces? There is a joking saying in the
circle: "Retire early and build nuclear power later."
It’s really hard to say who will be the first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.
Moreover, it is impossible to build more aircraft carriers, and there will only be a dozen or so aircraft carriers.
First of all, don’t even think about inland provinces. Some coastal provinces such as Guangxi and Hainan are also out of reach.
These two provinces already have amphibious assault ships , so they can no longer name aircraft carriers.
So in the inland provinces, we can discuss who will own the third amphibious assault ship.
Amphibious assault ship is also called helicopter aircraft carrier or light aircraft carrier . It can attack, transport people and equipment.
The displacement is not low either, with the Hainan and Guangxi ships reaching 40,000 tons.
As for how much is left, it is all up to everyone to guess. The tonnage of
is the configuration of an aircraft carrier. The French Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier is 40,000 tons.
The Hainan ship will be commissioned on April 23, 2021. Please note that April 23 is the launch time of our first self-made steam cruiser "Yang Wu" in modern times.
