The growth rate of the Chinese navy has been as fast as dumplings in the past few years. At present, various types of new warships in our country have been put into service.
At the same time, in order to make up for the "old accounts" owed in the past, a new round of shipbuilding frenzy is also coming. Our navy is about to add 8 055, 20 054A and 052D to continue construction. Z1z
added 054A
. Recently, military media reported that after 30 054A frigates are in service, 054A may have to build 20 more ships. Among them, 12 were built at Huangpu Shipyard and 8 were built at Hudong Shipyard. At the same time, there are 16 planned 0.55 million tons of large drives. After the completion of 8 ships, there are 8 more to be built or under construction. This suddenly attracted a large wave of netizens shouting, "This is simply making dumplings."
According to this speed, the lineup of our navy will achieve the goal of doubling by 2025. At present, my country’s navy has 33 destroyers in service, and it is expected to exceed 60 by 2025. The most important thing is that most of them are shield ships.
This 054A frigate produced by our country has been favored by many overseas countries. Previously, Pakistan reached an agreement with my country Shipbuilding Trading Company, and the Pakistan Navy also purchased two Type 054A frigates. From the contract point of view, Pakistan will have 4 054A frigates in 2021. With these four submarines, the combat capability of its navy will be greatly improved, helping to defend maritime security.
It is worth mentioning that many experts and media in Russia at that time put forward suggestions, asking everyone to buy this 054A frigate. The Russians also said that China's construction level is rapidly improving, and the performance of the 054A frigate is very excellent. Some experts pointed out that the stealth performance of the structure of the 054A frigate is very good, and it can cooperate very well with the aircraft carrier in future wars. For the aircraft carrier, the 054A frigate is simply a "guard with a sword." It is reported that in the latest construction process of the 054A frigate, the bow wave bulwark without a broken line will be used, and the wave protection effect after using this bulwark will be better. Many people believe that the vertical launch air defense missile system is the most deterrent and can attack and defend in the shortest time. We China is a country that believes in peace and development. This can be seen from the weapons equipped by our military. Our navy is mainly defensive. Z1z
The next phase of the plan
has served 30 054A frigates and 20 additional frigates have been added. This shows that the overall performance and cost-effectiveness of this frigate makes the Chinese Navy very satisfied. However, some people have questioned the use of the 054A frigate. It now appears that the 054A frigate is likely to be incorporated into the 071 and 075 amphibious assault fleets. As mentioned earlier, the current 075 amphibious assault ship still needs 8 ships. A stronger escort force is definitely needed.
Now the 054A frigate has added another 20 ships, and 52 054/054A frigates are already in service. Will the new 054B frigate continue to be built? The most probable argument at present is that the new 054B frigate will be re-launched in 2021 after the "return to furnace" design. I believe this day will come soon.
is different from what everyone imagined. In the rapid construction of these warships, the Chinese Navy did not relax its quality control. At present, according to the functions of various ships, the 054A frigate is mainly responsible for coastal patrol and search and rescue. China’s coastline is very long and has a vast exclusive economic zone. Such a large sea area requires patrol vessels to complete these daily patrol tasks. The
054A frigate is a multi-functional ocean-going multi-purpose ship, mainly used for patrol missions at low and medium intensity, and also includes humanitarian search and rescue missions such as searching for pirates. Although these tasks are relatively simple, there is also a need for a ship that can adapt to this long process.
The non-stop Chinese navy
052 and 055 destroyers have very strong air defense capabilities and comprehensive combat capabilities. They can be regarded as out-and-out capital ships. As the core of the formation, the 055 destroyer has almost no opponent in its command system. In battle, 055 appeared to be with the U.S. NavyThe Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruisers in service in China are very similar. Such warships are excellent, and they often serve as command ships when conducting coordinated operations with aircraft carriers. Although the
aircraft carrier has a large combat space, its communication system is likely to send out communication signals that reveal the position and situation of the command ship during combat. According to different combat missions, cruisers or destroyers are required to send out a large number of signals to cover aircraft carrier operations.
In recent years, China’s naval strength has improved significantly. Although the 054A frigate does not have a powerful hull like an aircraft carrier, it still plays a key role at sea that an aircraft carrier cannot. The 054A frigate uses advanced information technology to realize the sharing of information resources and comprehensive control of weapons, which allows the 054A frigate to play its combat capabilities for sea and land support.
Generally speaking, our navy will not stop at its current scale, and the current large naval lineup does not mean the end of the "ship building frenzy". This is just the beginning. I believe that by 2025, the main fleet and lineup of the Chinese navy will definitely reach a considerable lineup.
