Recently, IndiaArmyFormer artillery chief ShankarLieutenant GeneralIn the Indian media "Eurasian Times", he published an article saying that the Chinese rocket force is "not to be afraid", emphasizing that India can win by improving quality. He believes that the Chinese Rocket Forces will be weakened in a tactical environment, becauseSquadronLacks anti-aircraft and anti-missile capabilities, relies on imported S-300 air defense systems. ShankarLieutenant GeneralAlso claimed,SquadronThere are not enough trained seafarers and pilots. His views have sparked a lot of controversy.
However, despite IndiaArmyFormer artillery chief ShankarLieutenant GeneralThe Chinese Rocket Force expressed its opinion, but its views were questioned due to insufficient and biased arguments. Among them, the statement about whether China relies on the S-300 air defense system,SquadronLong developed its own air defense system, such asAnti-aircraft missiles of the Red Flag familyIt has been developed to the 22nd generation;In addition,SquadronAttention has also been paid to the training of seafarers and pilots, so there is no shortage of trained personnel. The performance of the Indian army in this regard cannot be ignored, and there are many problems with the quality of its army, so it is debatable whether India has the strength to win by quality.
Despite IndiaArmyFormer artillery chief ShankarLieutenant GeneralHe expressed his views on China's rocket forces, but in terms of overall strategic considerations, India has always been blindly optimistic. First of all, India's assessment of the medium-sized forces is overly optimistic, overestimating its own strength and believing that it can offset the PLA's ground superiority with special forces and air strike forces. Secondly, on the border issue, India is very interested in itselfMilitaryThe miscalculation of the advantage has led to a lot of incidents, such as 2020China and IndiaThe border clashes were provoked by Indian border guards. This strategic calculation of blind optimism may further lead India to take risky actions in the border region in an attempt to gain more benefits.
Blind optimism in India has risen in recent times. On the one hand, India ** announced a second self-productionAircraft carriersof the construction plan, and againstChinese NavyCarry out publicity;On the other hand, on the economic front, India is trying to force multinationals to stop importing components from China by waging a de facto ** war against China. Such blind optimism could lead India to take more aggressive actions, creating uncertainty for regional peace and stability.
Facing IndiaArmyFormer artillery chief ShankarLieutenant GeneralWe cannot take it lightly. Despite the problems with its views, India's contemptuous attitude towards China still needs to be vigilant. We cannot ignore India's provocations because of over-optimism, let alone allow India to continue its strategic miscalculations and risky actions.
As China, we should respond to India's provocations with strength and wisdom. First of all, we should continue to strengthen ourselvesMilitaryThe construction of strength will enhance the overall strength of the rocket force. At the same time, we should strengthen the strategic layout of the surrounding areas and ensure the security of the border areas. Second, we should continue to maintain regional peace and stability through international cooperation, and enhance the international community's awareness and pressure on India's provocative behavior. Finally, we should also strengthen our propaganda work against India, accurately convey China's strategic intentions and strength, and let India and society recognize their own limitations and challenges.
In short, IndiaArmyFormer artillery chief ShankarLieutenant GeneralAlthough there are many problems with the remarks, we should not take them lightly. India's blind optimism could lead to more risky actions and pose a threat to regional peace and stability. As China, we should remain calm and vigilant, respond to India's provocations with strength and wisdom, and safeguard our national interests and security. At the same time, we should also step up our propaganda work with India, so that it can recognize its own limitations and challenges, and promote peace and cooperation between the two sides. Only through the joint efforts of both sides can we achieve regional peace, stability, and common development.
