With Pakistan s advanced submarines, what threat will the Indian Navy face?

Mondo Military Updated on 2024-02-20

Because the southern ocean is called the "Indian Ocean", Indians are really naïve to think that this is their own back lake ......

India** recently reported an overwhelming news about China and Pakistan, which caused a strong response in Indian society!

India's "Eurasian Times" pointed out in the 16th that China has begun laying the keel of the second "Hangel" class AIP submarine built by Pakistan in Pakistan.

India collectively complained, accusing China of "creating annoyance for India"!

It is reported that according to the contract, Pakistan will introduce up to 8 "Hangel" class AIP submarines from China, of which 4 will be built by China, and the other 4 will be assembled and rebuilt by Pakistan through technology transfer!

Experts pointed out that although the scale of the Indian Navy is far larger than that of Pakistan, if Pakistan receives the blessing of advanced submarines, it will have a major impact on India's sea supremacy.

The prototype of the "Hangel" class submarines is believed to be the Chinese Navy's Type 039A 041 Yuan-class submarines, and the Pakistani Navy Chief of Staff revealed that these submarines will be equipped with the latest sensors and multi-type ** developed by China and Pakistan.

More critically, the Hangel-class submarines are likely to be equipped with Stirling engines for their AIP systems, which will provide the submarine with several weeks of underwater endurance and greatly increase its concealment performance.

According to a Pakistani source, the submarine will also be equipped with the "Babur III" cruise missile developed by the Pakistani side, with a maximum range of 700 kilometers! For the Indian Navy, this type of submarine will undoubtedly become their most feared "ghost of the sea".

If we stretch the timeline a little longer, we can find that the advanced ** provided by China for Pakistan can be described as dazzling!

For example, the 054AP multi-purpose frigate on the navy, the J-10C fighter on the air force, the VT-4 main battle tank on the army side, and so on. China has long been Pakistan's largest importer.

In addition to military cooperation, economic cooperation and cultural exchanges between China and Pakistan are also deepening, and Pakistan has begun to be called "Pakistan Railway" by more and more netizens.

For a country that is torn between the two superpowers, China and the United States, Pakistan's diplomatic line is indeed very good, and its grasp of the diplomatic balance can be called accurate!

Pakistan is important for China! Even in the future, this will rise significantly. Therefore, no matter how the Indian side expresses its dissatisfaction and **, we still have to do it.

In the author's opinion, Pakistan's importance to China is not obvious in peacetime, but once a crisis breaks out, Pakistan's unparalleled key role will be revealed!

After mankind entered the industrial age, energy has become a well-deserved industrial blood and economic artery.

In particular, the development of industry has brought war into a new form, and energy has become the fuel that supports the burning of war.

In World War II, the world consumed more than 300 million tons of oil, accounting for nearly 40% of the total consumption of various types of war materials. Without the support of oil, tanks and aircraft carriers cannot be driven, and fighters cannot fly.

However, our country is limited by geography and relatively scarce oil and gas resources, so China has to import oil and gas in large quantities every year! It is no secret that the vast majority of oil and gas products consumed in the domestic market come from abroad.

The largest producer of China's foreign oil and gas imports is in the Middle East, so the Strait of Malacca has become the main artery of our energy imports, and there is a great risk that it will be cut off by the West.

But with Pakistan, China has leased the second largest deep-water port in Pakistan, Gwadar Port, and if we build this port into our oil and gas transit station and use pipelines to import resources into the country, we will be able to smoothly bypass the Strait of Malacca and avoid the crisis situation of being cut off from energy imports.

In addition, another important reason why China must strongly support Pakistan is to contain India.

On this point, there is a strong consensus between China and Pakistan! For Pakistan, because it is in an asymmetrical competition with India, it is eager to hold on to the "thigh" of a superpower.

As far as China is concerned, Pakistan's subjective initiative to confront India is very strong, and we don't need to lobby hard, we just need to put aid and armaments in place.

It is in our fundamental interest to hold Pakistan's hand and lock India's influence in a corner of South Asia!

India will definitely take the initiative to escalate its contradictions with China in the future! This is something that a discerning person can see at a glance.

Although India's economic development is very fast, the religious, ethnic, and racial contradictions in the country are irreconcilable, which will cause greater turmoil in Indian society in the future.

As far as the rulers are concerned, once the domestic contradictions are highly acute, the time has come to play the almighty "leper card" of "nationalism".

And while raising the banner of nationalism, we must also set up an enemy! For India, the best "target" for this is China! Therefore, if we look backwards along this logical line, in order to contain the future challenge on the part of India, China must wedge a "nail" in front of their home!

Cooperation is a true portrayal of the current China-Pakistan relations, China does not need to worry about the noise of the Indian side, and making Pakistan strong is a realistic strategic need for us to ......
