The prologue to the era of China's carrier-based aircraft: the persistence and efforts of the generals.
On September 25, 2012, China's first aircraft carrier, the Liaoning, was officially listed, marking a new era of aircraft carriers for the Chinese Navy. As a symbol of a modern military power, aircraft carriers have important strategic value for enhancing naval strength and enhancing the country's comprehensive national strength. However, behind this historic moment is the hard work and firm conviction of a great military general, General *.
**: The years of struggle of the father of China's aircraft carriers.
In 1982, General ** took over the post of commander of the People's Navy, when the navy was facing huge challenges, the level of equipment lagged behind, the strategic principles were backward, and "relying on the island shore and fighting in the near sea" became the guiding principle. **After conducting a large-scale inspection of the Navy, it was recognized that the development of aircraft carriers is the key to improving the Navy's combat effectiveness and safeguarding the country's maritime rights and interests. This determination was planted as early as the 60s of the last century, ** worked in the Naval Research Institute, and developed a strong interest in aircraft carrier construction.
In 1980, ** visited the United States for the first time and boarded the aircraft carriers "CV-63 Kitty Hawk" and "CV-61 Raider". This experience made him deeply feel the scale and combat capability of the aircraft carrier, and deepened his desire for aircraft carrier construction. After returning home, he actively put forward the idea of developing aircraft carriers, but the plan was not approved due to the weak industrial base of China at that time. ** In his memoirs, he pointed out: "The aircraft carrier is a symbol of the country's comprehensive national strength, and it is also the core of the navy's multi-arms operations at sea." ”
Aircraft carriers are always built ":* perseverance.
** The general has always believed that the development of aircraft carriers is a key issue in the construction of China's navy. During his tenure as commander of the Navy, a new strategy for naval construction was proposed, and "defense of the near sea" became the new guiding principle. He led major reforms, resulting in more than 70 reforms, known as the "Great Naval Reform". Aircraft carrier construction became the centerpiece of this, and it was first publicly stated in January 1984: "Aircraft carriers always have to be built." ”
In order to realize the dream of an aircraft carrier, it took half a lifetime of hard work. In the 90s of the last century, he bought foreign aircraft carriers for research, but the real turning point came in 1998, when China bought the former Soviet aircraft carrier "Varyag" from Ukraine. The introduction of this aircraft carrier has provided substantial support for the construction of China's aircraft carrier, and also made General *** see the possibility of realizing the dream of an aircraft carrier.
** unremitting efforts and the realization of dreams.
In 2005, China officially approved the construction of aircraft carriers, which made the 89-year-old *** excited. Although he was unable to witness the commissioning of China's first aircraft carrier during the 10 years he was appointed to the first army, his efforts and dreams were finally realized in 2012 - the "Liaoning" was officially delivered.
**Although the general did not attend the aircraft carrier delivery ceremony, he has been following the construction process of the aircraft carrier since then. In 2010, he witnessed the appointment of the first captain of China's first aircraft carrier, which was the fruitful result of the "flying captain class" he promoted. On December 17, 2019, the "Shandong Ship" was officially put into service, and the third new-generation aircraft carrier is also under construction. All these achievements are the outstanding contributions made by General *** to the cause of China's aircraft carriers.
Chinese aircraft carriers: the bright tomorrow of the general's dream.
** The general played a key role in the development of China's aircraft carriers. His persistence, hard work and dreams have brought the Chinese Navy to new glory. The aircraft carrier is not only a symbol of a country's comprehensive national strength, but also a powerful tool for safeguarding China's maritime rights and interests and participating in international affairs. **The general's dream of an aircraft carrier has now become a reality, providing strong support for China's rise on the world stage.
**The life of the general is a legend in the history of the development of the Chinese Navy. His unremitting efforts and firm belief have achieved the pinnacle of China's aircraft carriers. China's aircraft carriers are increasingly becoming the guardians of the world's oceans, and the dream of the first general to be an aircraft carrier will also shine in the process of the country's rise.
The rise of China's aircraft carrier industry is an exciting chapter in history. As the father of China's aircraft carriers, the admiral has made indelible contributions to the modernization process of the Chinese Navy and the rise of the country through his unremitting and outstanding efforts. The realization of this great cause not only reflects personal perseverance and wisdom, but also epitome of the rise of China's leading strength.
First of all, the key role of the general in the development of China's aircraft carriers cannot be ignored. In the 60s of the last century, he became interested in the development of aircraft carriers and put forward a preliminary plan for the construction of aircraft carriers. However, due to the weak industrial base at the time, his vision could not be supported. However, the company was not discouraged by this, but was more convinced that the aircraft carrier is a symbol of the country's comprehensive national strength and the core of the navy's multi-arms operations. This firm belief propelled him to lay the foundation for China's aircraft carrier cause through a major naval reform during his tenure as commander of the Navy, including the construction of aircraft carriers.
Secondly, the general showed a pragmatic side in the decision to purchase a foreign aircraft carrier and introduce the "Varyag". In the face of the lack of domestic industrial level at that time, he decisively adopted the strategy of introducing foreign aircraft carriers, which provided substantial support for China's later aircraft carrier construction. This pragmatic decision-making reflects his deep understanding of the realities of the country and his active and wise efforts to realize the dream of an aircraft carrier.
The most important thing is that the dream of the ** general's aircraft carrier is now shining brightly in the process of the country's rise. China's aircraft carriers have not only become a stabilizing force for international maritime security, but also provide strong support for the country to play a more important role in regional and global affairs. The realization of its dream is not only a milestone in the modernization of China's navy, but also a manifestation of the country's comprehensive strength. Under his leadership, China's first aircraft carrier, the Liaoning, was officially listed in 2012, becoming the pioneer of China's aircraft carrier industry. Subsequently, the commissioning of the "Shandong Ship" further strengthened the aircraft carrier strength of the Chinese Navy.
In general, the dream of an aircraft carrier is a shining star in the rise of the Chinese Navy. His wisdom, persistence and dedication have injected vitality into the modernization of China's aircraft carriers and provided solid support for the rise of the country. Today, when the Chinese Navy ushers in the era of aircraft carriers, we miss this great general and feel that his dream has now become a reality, injecting new vitality into the country's aircraft carrier force.
