Imagine the map of Chinese aircraft carrier
Data Figure : Overseas posted on the website of the China State Shipbuilding Corporation Changxing Shipbuilding Base exhibited reduced scale models which will be a dock for the construction of aircraft carriers revealed . Jane's said there were reports that China 's shipbuilding industry Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding shipyard in the construction of 4-6 aircraft carrier .
LONDON Sept. 21 news: the latest issue of Jane's Defense Weekly ( September 15, 2010 publication ) published in the journal in the Asia-Pacific defense industry reporter Jon - Gelaiweite (Jon Grevatt) comprehensive analysis , this Up to 6 -page report details China's defense industry in all aspects of progress . The report mentions that China's defense industry in the aviation and shipbuilding progress made in the most prominent . The article added that most defense analysts believe that at least 10 years , the Chinese defense will rise as a " world-class defense industrial base . "
Paper first , as China prepared in January 2011 announced the development of the 12th Five-Year Plan outline , the National Defense Service industry has reached a critical period of development potential from the last century, large-scale since the early 90's successful restructuring , have been For the ( defense industry ) to lay a solid foundation for growth , but the country is to achieve the military objectives of the next decade or so , still need a big progress in leaps and bounds .
Jane's said , through the defense budget and other economic incentives by way of direct capital investment to promote the defense industry modernization project , a move intended to raise the level of industrialization and independence , but because of the continuing Western sanctions and other reasons , the Chinese defense Industrial development has been limited. China's large military-industrial companies , 10 major state-owned group , they have hundreds of subsidiaries , employs a total of at least 200 million workers . In 2009, the state-owned defense enterprises paid taxes estimated at close to 800 billion yuan ( 118 billion U.S. dollars ) and profits of about 60 billion yuan , China Aviation Industry Corporation (AVIC) accounted for the largest share of the profit amounted to 10 billion , Profits of 191 billion yuan . Jane's comment that China has made progress this ambition can be Chinese Defense Minister Liang in October 2009 the 60th anniversary of the National Day celebration , then to sum up , in 2006-2008 he was quoted as saying China's defense white paper , China's military modernization In accordance with the " three-step " plan to , that is, " lay a solid foundation by 2010 , 2020, the basic construction of mechanization and make significant progress in information technology , to achieve the middle of the 21st century national defense and military modernization . "
Jane's article then referred to the reform of China's defense industrial enterprises , the article said, the first 90 years of reform started from the last century , from the Soviet model of central planning system, strategic and change management process R & D institutions and aspects of the re- integration, enhance military and civilian The integration between technologies . University of California Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation Senior Fellow Zhangtai Ming (Tai Ming Cheung) commented that the reform of pre- primary is out of the previous difficulties , which laid the foundation for future development . Since then, China's defense industry has also been re- optimized , Jane's specifically mentioned in the aircraft industry , said the group 's investment and divestiture of assets have taken positive measures in 2009 to sell several vehicle manufacturers , has achieved the Group's first overseas mergers and acquisitions, the future of advanced composite materials Austria AG (FACC). The article also cited a number of defense companies in China to strengthen development in the stock market to raise funds and transformation of examples.
Article highlighted China's defense industry made several " critical capacity. " The article says , China Aviation Industry Corporation 's approximately 400,000 employees and their achievements in advancing the most significant R & D and production of a series of military aircraft platforms are only the United States and Russia could exceed the company's products . In recent years, the aircraft flew into a multi-function produced the F -10 fighter , FC-1/JF-17 light aircraft, flying out of production of the Shen Jian -11A and F -11B fighter , other aircraft including a large early warning aircraft, air marshals -2000 And a series of unmanned aircraft . J -10 is considered to meet the needs of the PLA Air Force 's main combat aircraft , so far , has delivered about 150 J -10 units , gradually replacing the aging F- -7 fighter , the final number will be the deployment of more than 300 Frame , and this fifth-generation Chinese J-XX fighter R & D progress .
Jane also mentioned that China's aviation industry is facing some problems . Article cited a few examples , in March of this year , the French decided not to allow its companies fire control radar and other sophisticated electronic equipment supplies to Pakistan JF-17 fighters ; in July , Russia's suspension of the signing of Russian-made RD-93 100 JF- type 17 fighter engines contract.
Jane's also a brief assessment of China shipbuilding industry . China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC) and China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation (CSIC) have respectively 100,000 and 250,000 employees , has 60 subsidiary companies , in recent years modular shipbuilding technology , will build a large number of modern ships , including the next Generation of submarines, 022 Hou -class stealth missile boats and aircraft carriers north . Wu Shengli , commander of the Chinese Navy in April 2009 stressed that China will develop a new generation of weapons, including large surface combat ships , supersonic cruise aircraft , long-endurance submarines . Jane Yue , Wu General 's speech did not mention aircraft carriers , although the People's Liberation Army of the critic , said the ships will form a key part of the People's Liberation Army navy modernization . There were also reports that China 's Jiangnan Shipbuilding Shipbuilding in Changxing Island Shipyard 4-6 aircraft carrier .
Jane's also said that Russian technology and design affect the majority of the Chinese Navy platforms, including aircraft carriers , and a new 094 "Jin " class strategic nuclear submarines , 094 nuclear submarines are owned by the China Shipbuilding Industry Bohai Shipbuilding Heavy Industrial Construction . China from South Korea, Japan and some European countries, business partners access to a number of technologies for the Chinese naval propulsion systems progress.
Then Jane's analysis of China 's exports of military products , said the supply of exports is second only to the second priority after the PLA strategy , not only can make a profit , but also can expand their influence. Jane's said that China's advance in Asia, Africa and the Middle East export of military products in developing countries , reflecting a more general sense, foreign policy - to strengthen relations with countries producing oil and gas , these countries are considered strategic for Land , while China's defense industry in this policy at the center , as they not only provide military systems and can Yiwei infrastructure in developing countries to provide commercial technical support, also provide preferential credit . For example, the relationship between China and Pakistan , China Aviation Industry , China North Industries Corporation and the shipbuilding industry have established contacts with Islamabad , Pakistan by China to support the design of the system and to help Pakistan raise the level of modernization of state-owned defense industries , involving specific weapons systems , including JF-17 fighter , " Khalid " tanks the main station and the " sword "class missile frigate F-22P . In recent years, China and Thailand and Indonesia also focus on the partnership between , and discounted prices to the export of missile technology in these two countries . Jane's analysis also said the defense export agreement with China, African countries, mostly rich in oil and gas and coal reserves . China's export strategy attractive to developing countries , especially in the next few years as China's military technologies continue to improve , with a rising superpower and the benefits of establishing close relationships become more obvious.
Jane's article mentioned , CATIC Vice President Yang Ying in 2008 on Jane's said: " When we first envisioned JF-17 , we want to export to the world , especially in Africa and Asia , we Know that many of our customers will see F-16 or Sukhoi aircraft , but we also fully aware of the JF-17 has a unique advantage , that is cheaper than other aircraft , we believe it is the cost of the three F-16 One . "
Jane also mentioned that in some military technology, China still need to catch up with Western countries. Jane's analysis , said China 's efforts to acquire and develop technologies face four overlapping strategies : the permission of rotorcraft engineering production and imitation ; of the existing rotor technology upgrading and modernization , and development of autonomous systems; to advanced commercial Technology into existing military platforms ; by high levels of investment incentives , to improve independent R & D mechanism . In the short term , Moscow will remain an important partner , China and Russia are discussing a number of cooperation projects , worth noting are based on meter -26 heavy helicopter platform development, but Russia against possible "reverse engineering "has The concerns . Russia's reluctance to provide China with RD-93 aircraft engines because similar. Nanyang Technological University, International Institute of Asian military experts Bi Sheng Ge (Bitzinger) said that China has put Russia's " dry " , and the past 20 years , Russia has not really into the R & D funding , so they can get more and nothing You anything .
Jane went on to say that China in-depth access to technology as well as business contacts and independent research and development are two routes to date , commercial links are circumvent Western arms embargo long-term experience more successful way , Britain and France for a number of technology Military reconnaissance systems, aircraft engines , navigation systems, air defense missiles, and helicopter development. Zhang Taiming researcher commented that the technology through commercial channels , the Chinese may be able to get on this basis 70-80 % of the military platform, but 20-30 % of the special key military components (such as engines and avionics systems) will be difficult to rely on this access . Then Jane's analysis said that under the above restrictions , independent research and development has become more crucial.
Jane's said at the end , most analysts believe that the pace of existing development , as China gradually upgrade and expand existing foreign and domestic equipment systems , at least 10 years , China 's defense enterprises will rise to a " world-class defense industrial base
