For a long time after entering this century, the Navy had focused on the construction and military strengthening of the East China Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet in stages. However, only the North China Sea Fleet has been in a period of endurance and dormant. Even the 10th Detachment of its destroyer under its command was called "maritime nursing home" by netizens because it was constantly receiving the old 051 destroyers and 053 frigates eliminated by brother troops. It was not until the 052D series "Chinese Aegis Destroyer" was mass-produced that the North Sea Fleet was "reborn" and the fleet was also completely renewed. What is even more unexpected is that after the eight 052D destroyers were included in the North Sea Fleet, the North Sea Fleet seemed to have cheated and its combat power continued to rise, that is, the entire army took the lead in receiving 4 0.55 10,000-ton destroyers.
At this stage, in terms of destroyers alone, the North Sea Fleet already has 4 0.55 million tons of destroyers, 8 052D series destroyers, 2 051C destroyers, 2 052 destroyers, 9 054A ocean frigates, 2 053H3 frigates and more than 15 056A light anti-submarine frigates. The South China Sea Fleet has 3 055 destroyers (there are also said that the subsequent four 055 destroyers have been completed in the South China Sea Fleet), 9 052D destroyers, 1 051B destroyers, 2 052C destroyers, 2 052B destroyers, 11 054A ocean frigates, 2 053H3 frigates and nearly 20 056A light anti-submarine frigates. As for the East China Sea Fleet, it is actually not weak in combat power, and it is equipped with 8 052D destroyers, 4 052C destroyers, 4 Hyundai-class destroyers, 11 054A ocean frigates and more than 10 056A light anti-submarine frigates respectively. According to the current comprehensive situation of the three major fleets, although the South China Sea Fleet is still ranked first among the three major fleets, the comprehensive strength of the North China Sea Fleet has actually approached the South China Sea Fleet and has surpassed the East China Sea Fleet.
In this regard, many netizens commented: "It seems that the Navy is also internal volume . The internal competition is too fierce. If you don't pay attention, you may be overtaken!" Of course, this phenomenon of "chasing each other" just reflects the gratifying achievements made by the People's Navy in this century, and behind this is the support of strong comprehensive national strength! After all, the navy has always been high-tech and consumed military services. Looking around the world, it can be called the Ocean Navy's maritime power with less than 10. Even building a medium-sized maritime power requires huge capital investment and stable technical reserves. So this is why a famous saying in the military industry is: "Ten years of army, fifty years of air force, and a hundred years of navy." For example, the cost of a 052D destroyer is 3.4 billion yuan, and the cost of a 0.55 million tons destroyer is nearly 6.00-6.5 billion yuan. The Chinese Navy built 25 and 8 respectively in these two types of ships. It is conservatively estimated that it will be a total of 133 billion yuan. Such high costs are currently supported by China and the United States.
