    I have to say that the Americans feel very miserable now. Although they really hope to absorb China into their ranks, the Chinese not only bring about a double-teaming trend against the Soviet Union, but also against their allies.  More choices.

    ¡°At least now, except for the British who still arrogantly despise China¡¯s naval equipment development, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and other countries are very interested in equipping China with this kind of anti-ship missile.  Although the YJ-62 has not reached the level of supersonic speed, it has an ultra-long range. It uses inertial navigation + GPS guidance in the mid-stage and active radar guidance in the terminal stage. It cruises at a sea-skimming altitude of 30 meters and the final stage is less than ten meters.  The hit accuracy is impressive, and the damage caused by a single hit is enough to severely damage a large destroyer of seven to eight thousand tons.

    Although these small countries at or below medium level are relatively wealthy economically, they cannot build too large a fleet. Most of the ships they use are small ships of less than 6,000 tons. However, they will face the Soviet Union with its large tonnage and large number.  There are too many fleets, or there are some concerns when facing other small countries.  Then, reliable and powerful anti-ship missiles will undoubtedly be a very meaningful choice for them.

    Due to the occasion, these naval officers will not put forward anything too specific on the spot, but they will definitely write a report after they return, and then let the officials contact China to see if they can obtain these anti-ship missiles. The United States itself cannot say anything.  If you can't do it, you can only watch the money that originally belongs to you flow into China's belly.

    This is not the first time. The courage of South Korea¡¯s 60 fighter jets should have belonged to General Dynamics¡¯ F-16. Although Saudi Arabia¡¯s sky-high price order had nothing to do with the United States, the Americans were secretly unhappy.

    The group got off the destroyer No. 167 Shenzhen and boarded the frigate Jiaxing next to it.  Generally speaking, the two ships are somewhat similar, except that the main air defense force of the Jiaxing frigate is a vertical launcher system, while the 052A uses a double-arm launcher.  There is no doubt that hair hanging is the future trend. Although 054A uses medium-sized hair hanging, with this accumulation of experience, no one doubts whether China can develop a large-scale universal hair hanging system in the next step.

    Walking at the back of the team, Fiore and others who had chatted before were all looking in awe, "With its simple and beautiful appearance, balanced and complete weapon configuration, and its high degree of electronics, this ship is basically  It¡¯s not like something a country that¡¯s still in poverty can produce.¡±

    Melville couldn¡¯t help but ask: ¡°How much do you think this frigate will cost?¡±

    Fiore guessed: "If it is manufactured by Bass Steel's shipyard, I estimate that it will cost at least four to five billion U.S. dollars. Even if China's labor costs are cheap, a large amount of technology research and development will still need to be invested. I am afraid it will definitely be no less than four.  One hundred million U.S. dollars."

    "How much does China spend on its military?"

    "They haven't announced it, but the information we got is that it's only more than 20 billion US dollars"

    Melville frowned and shook his head, "This is impossible. China has equipped at least dozens of new fighter jets, at least four destroyers, four frigates, and several submarines in the past year. They also renovated the old aircraft carrier. Moreover,  , the F-14 contract signed with Grumman alone is more than two billion."

    "I don't know about this. Maybe the information is wrong. But no matter what, China shouldn't have so much money to replace so much new equipment. It's really hard to see through."

    A captain from New Zealand held the side of the ship and sighed: "If we also have a warship like this, the combat effectiveness will be significantly improved."

    Fiore then followed up: "The Perry class is actually very good. Its tonnage is similar to this one. Australia will use it."

    Everyone laughed and said nothing, and Fiore was also a little disgraced. He also knew that the Perry class could not compare with this 054A in many places.  For example, first of all, the 054A considers the issue of stealth, and its detectability is much lower than that of the Perry class. This is an important competitive advantage.  Then, compared with Perry's single-arm launcher, the 054A's vertical launcher not only has stronger response capabilities, but also has the ability to guide multiple targets, so its air defense strength is naturally improved a lot.  It even carries twice as many anti-ship missiles as the Perry class.  It is estimated that the anti-submarine helicopter can only carry one, which is a little worse than the Perry class.

    Finally, the members of the visiting group boarded the third Chinese ship, the No. 333 039A breathless propulsion submarine, one of only two submarines in this exercise.  Logically speaking, this submarine is the ship that should pay the most attention to confidentiality. Indeed, in order to prevent leaks, the Navy has done a lot of work. For example, the nameplates of some equipment are all blocked, and important cabin sections are enclosed to prevent entry.  But even so, if you allow others to come in and take a look, you can reveal a lot.

    For this AIP submarine, it is actually what all foreign visiting colleagues are most concerned about and interested in.  Especially the Japanese, with an expression that seems to be frightened but also full of reverence and admiration.?Looking carefully at every corner of the ship.

    Pacific Fleet Commander Hayes asked: "What an outstanding submarine. How long can she sail underwater without rising?"

    It is impossible to tell the Americans accurate information. Shan Dade responded with a smile: "It can be avoided for at least two weeks."

    This number is simply a fantasy number for navies of various countries who are used to seeing ordinary diesel-electric submarines need to be refloated in a short time. Everyone understands the strategic indicators behind this number, especially those that are not considered navies at all.  The Japanese Navy officer looked at this big black fish with eager eyes.

    Captain Fukamizu Toyohiko lowered his head thoughtfully. When he raised it again, there seemed to be a ball of fire in his eyes: "Japan must have such a submarine. China has expanded too much. If their  The navy has established hegemony in the South China Sea, East China Sea, and Taiwan Strait, which is a huge threat to Japan¡¯s important lines of communication.¡±

    ¡°And he and his colleagues actually have another ambition that cannot be shared with outsiders, which is to eventually break away from the control of the United States and become an independent, normal country.  Thirty years later, there is indeed a very annoying, mangy-looking prime minister who keeps trying this very thing.  In fact, from the moment the Peace Constitution was imposed on Japan by the Americans, countless Japanese hoped to overturn it.

    It was after the 1990s that the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force really began to prosper. Although Japan already had a large number of destroyers and frigates at this time, its overall technical level was not high.  Since the late 1970s, under the banner of the U.S-Japan alliance to fight against the Soviet Union, Japan has begun its own road to the revival of its navy, which is the well-known Eighth-Eight Fleet.  That is, a maritime force composed of 1 DDH (helicopter destroyer), 2 DDG (missile destroyer) and 3 DD (drug drive), plus eight anti-submarine helicopters.

    The Eighth-Eighth Fleet during the Cold War was actually a dedicated anti-submarine squadron of the Seventh Fleet. However, Japan secretly crossed over to Chencang. Although it was in the name of developing anti-submarine warfare as an ally, it actually built a super-large-scale fleet that was completely incompatible with its needs.  fleet.  Many people know the term 88th Fleet, but in fact it is more accurate to say 488th Fleet.  The Eighty-Eight Fleet aims to expand Japan's maritime energy, so eight ships and eight aircraft are actually to build four such fleets.

    The size of this fleet is completely aimed at the status of the third largest navy after the United States and the Soviet Union.

    Japan, which thought it could build a top naval force in the Asia-Pacific, suddenly discovered today that China, which had been bullied by itself, had quietly built such a powerful naval vessel.  Compared to the arrogant British, the Japanese are certainly arrogant, but they are more or less intelligent and can tell the quality of a ship at a glance.

    Just comparing submarines, this Chinese 039A submarine is much more advanced than the Japanese Shishio-class submarine that has just been in service.  First of all, the tonnage of 039A is about one thousand tons larger than that of Tide Tide, but the number of operators is 20 fewer than that of Tide Tide.  Not to mention the living environment and ship detail processing, which have little impact on combat effectiveness, an AIP power system instantly kills Tidal Wave.  There is no doubt that this submarine is far superior to the Tidal Class in many key parameters such as firepower and silence.

    This year, Japan completed the construction of the first Eighth Eighth Fleet. However, with such an AIP submarine and a member of the Eighth Eighth Fleet, Fukamizu Toyohiko asked himself that it would be difficult for his Hatsuyuki to take any advantage against this submarine.  .  What made him even more wary was that the Chinese actually showed such advanced things to others, and even participated in the Rim-Pacific military exercises. The electromagnetic spectrum must have become something in the data databases of various countries.  Where does this data come from?

    Toyohiko Fukasui slapped his thigh and suddenly realized: "The Chinese have nuclear submarines!" The only thing better than AIP submarines is nuclear submarines.  The Chinese people must be more confident in their nuclear submarine capabilities by showing off their AIP submarines so aggressively.

    He immediately turned around and whispered to an aide: "We must take pictures of every detail of this submarine as an important reference for our country's future shipbuilding!"

    "Hi!" said the staff member holding the strange briefcase.

    But he didn¡¯t know that this scene was being closely watched by the Chinese navy sailors who had already noticed their misdeeds.

    The visit to the submarine was very short, perhaps because they were considering not revealing more secrets. Naval officers from several countries expressed their dissatisfaction and wanted to see more, and Toyohiko Fukamizu also followed suit.  However, the Chinese did not agree to extend the opening hours, so everyone had to walk out of the ship angrily.

    Just as everyone was getting off the gangway, suddenly one of the captains of the Chinese Navy fell down and tried to help a staff member of the Japanese Navy with one hand, but he hit the briefcase held by the staff member.  The briefcase was knocked into the sea with a bang.

    "Wow, I'm sorry, hurry up, youSome of you, jump down and help our Japanese friends fish out the things!  "

    Before the Japanese could react, several sailors slipped directly from the hull of the submarine.  Fukasui Toyohiko was shocked. The briefcase contained all the cameras that had been secretly taken. After the Chinese sailor jumped in, he returned a briefcase with nothing in it
