my country’s Su-Aao fishing boat operating in the waters of Diaoyutai encountered the Chinese aircraft carrier “Liaoning” battle group. Since it was only 3 kilometers away from the nearest, the captain quickly reported to the Su-Aao Fisheries Association Radio via satellite phone.
Japan’s Ministry of Defense posted an announcement stating that for two days in a row, the Maritime Self-Defense Force found traces of warships such as the Chinese “Liaoning” aircraft carrier battle group in the surrounding waters. Including on May 1, the “Liaoning” led the missile destroyers “Nanchang”, “Xining”, “Urumqi” and “Chengdu”, and the comprehensive supply ship “Hulun Lake”. Sail north to south. In addition, there is a frigate “Xiangtan” sailing from west to east. On the 2nd, near the waters off Okinawa, the missile destroyer “Zhengzhou” was spotted. Eight ships then sailed towards the Pacific Ocean through the Miyako Strait.
Sun Lifang, a spokesman for the Ministry of National Defense, said, “With regard to the situation of Chinese ships passing through the waters around me, the national army will monitor the situation in accordance with the emergency handling regulations to monitor the normal situation.”
Expert analysis shows that the “Liaoning” aircraft group is assembled in the sea off the east of China for joint sea and air exercises.
Su Ziyun, Director of Military Strategy and Industry of the National Defense Academy, said, “Taiwan’s position east of Hualien is to conduct some drills. The formation of his battle group this time is indeed quite difficult, that is, he is doing a regional air defense. Fighting, that’s why the Nanchang ship appeared.”
Facing the threat of Chinese military intimidation, my country has also actively improved its self-defense capabilities and purchased 40 M109A6 self-propelled guns from the United States. However, the United States recently notified that due to the war in Ukraine and Russia, due to the “production line crowding”, the delivery schedule will be delayed by 3 Years, therefore offering alternatives including the “Haimas” multiple rocket system.
Zhu Wenwu, deputy director of the planning department of the Army Command, said, “As for the M109A6 self-propelled gun and its possible alternatives, the Ministry of National Defense and the Army are currently evaluating the overall evaluation of the new artillery weapon system that will be purchased in the future. The Thunder 2000 made by China is matched with each other to provide the ability of long- and short-range cross-regional fire reinforcements.”
Su Ziyun, director of military strategy and industry of the National Defense Academy, said, “We can use our own Thunder 2000 to replace the M109A6 self-propelled gun, because the shortest range of the Thunder 2000 is also around 30-45 kilometers, or we may continue to cooperate with the United States. Communication, then buy the M109A7 series self-propelled guns directly.”
Experts pointed out that the M109A6 focuses on short- and medium-range beach defense, but the “Haimas” system belongs to long-range strike firepower. The positioning of the two is different. It is recommended to turn to the United States for a more advanced “M109A7” to strengthen our artillery combat capability. .
