Senior Colonel Ren Guoqiang, spokesman of the Ministry of National Defense, said at the regular press conference on May 3 1 6 that the carrier formation of Liaoning Ship 16 had initially formed its system capability. According to Sputnik News Agency & Radio 31,Ren Guoqiang said that since the Liaoning ship entered the train, a series of comprehensive drills including offshore combat drills have been organized in an orderly manner as planned, which effectively tested the establishment and maintenance of an integrated system of attack and defense for aircraft carrier formations.
Aircraft carrier formation training has deepened and expanded to the application of offshore operations, and the system capability has initially taken shape. Next, China Navy will organize Liaoning ship to carry out ocean-going activities. The navy's first aircraft carrier battle group is likely to conduct Pacific Rim training for the first time.
After the first sea trial of the first domestic aircraft carrier, China confidently announced that the carrier formation of Liaoning Ship 16 has initially formed the system capability, which means that the first carrier formation in China has the ability to go out for ocean navigation training.
It is generally believed that the first aircraft carrier formation in China will be composed of the following ships: one aircraft carrier/KOOC-0/6 Liaoning ship+two 052D guided missile destroyers+two 052C guided missile destroyers+two 054A guided missile frigates+/KOOC-0/093B attack nuclear submarine+/KOOC-0/90/KOOC-0/integrated supply ship, thus having a complete supply ship.
In the previous training, China's first aircraft carrier formation basically carried out coastal adaptability, including bypassing the eastern part of Taiwan Province Province and basically not leaving the coastal waters, and this was all training when the Liaoning ship did not form combat capability.
However, after nearly six years of hard training and exploration, the carrier formation of Liaoning Ship 16 has completed the comprehensive training of all-formation joint operations, all-carrier formation, day and night take-off and landing, mixed formation tactical formation, air live ammunition attack and air combat formation, and has a high system capability.
Comprehensive combat capability, Liaoning ship 16 aircraft carrier formation can no longer be an otaku. Therefore, after confidently announcing that China's first aircraft carrier battle group has the system capability, the China Navy will definitely organize the Liaoning Ship 16 aircraft carrier formation to conduct a Pacific Rim voyage training that shocked the whole world, and truly test how long this capability can last.
At the same time, as the Japanese media said, China's aircraft carrier has indeed become a "psychological warfare weapon" to deter neighboring countries. As long as the Liaoning aircraft carrier formation 16 goes out for such a trip, the nuclear deterrent of China Navy's ocean-going combat power is enough to deter all gangsters.
It's one thing to own an aircraft carrier, but it's another to skillfully use and use an aircraft carrier. In less than six years, the carrier formation of Liaoning Ship 16 has completed the transformation from zero to the initial formation of system capability, which is a great achievement.
Moreover, after the completion of the sea trial of the first domestic aircraft carrier, the second and third domestic aircraft carriers are under development, and the first domestic amphibious assault ship also has good news, which fully proves that the China Navy is developing its integrated system capability. With strong support, China will be more confident in maintaining the maritime security around it in the future!
