While the Chinese are celebrating the Spring Festival, the confrontation between ships in the South China Sea has intensified, and the Philippines has not stopped provoking with force. Recently, the China Coast Guard 3105 ship, which was patrolling the islands and reefs in the South China Sea, faced the Philippine Coast Guard 9701 ship, which was twice its size, and was not afraid to stand in front of the Philippine Coast Guard 970 ship to safeguard the sovereignty and dignity of China's territorial waters.
Judging from the scene footage, the main gun of the 3105 ship of our coast guard has been unloaded, revealing the 76mm main gun on the foredeck, deterring the Philippine coast guard from crossing the line, and China's warning is escalating step by step?
The Chinese ships are on the front line to defend their rights
Since last year, the Philippines has become more and more assertive on the issue of islands and reefs in the South China Sea, and Marcos Jr., supported by the United States, has continued to attack islands and reefs in the South China Sea.
The Chinese Navy and the Chinese Coast Guard patrol vessels have formed an impenetrable steel defense line, and the Coast Guard patrol ships and naval combat vessels have been deployed at bases on the islands and reefs in the South China Sea and surrounding waters to make all preparations for emergencies.
Haijing 3105 is a modification of the Navy's Type 056 corvette, with a length of 89 meters, a width of 11 meters, and a full load displacement of more than 1,300 tons.
The Navy will transfer all 22 056 basic frigates to the China Coast Guard to strengthen the construction of the coast guard force, these 22 056 frigates are produced in accordance with military standards, although they are only more than 1,000 tons of small combat ships, but they have comprehensive combat capabilities, anti-ship and anti-submarine air defense capabilities are balanced, and are suitable for carrying out patrol tasks such as escorting and protecting fisheries.
After being transferred from the Navy frigate detachment to the coast guard unit, although the YJ-83 anti-ship missile launcher, torpedo tube, and Haihongqi-10 ship-to-air missile and other equipment were removed, the PJ-26 76mm single-barreled naval gun in the bow of the ship was retained, and it has a strong close-range fire suppression capability, and the 76mm single-barreled naval gun has become the standard configuration of ships in the coast guard force.
The gun weighs about 16 tons, has an ammunition reserve of 152 rounds, a maximum range of 15 kilometers, and the most terrifying thing is that it has an extremely high rate of fire, which can reach 60-120 rounds, and is generally equipped on our army's 056 corvettes and 054A frigates, and even equipped on our army's Type 071 dock landing ships, as an important sea strike, it can implement ship air defense operations if necessary.
Naval artillery is an important means of firepower for the front-line law enforcement of China's coast guard, under normal circumstances, the high salt and high humidity marine environment in the South China Sea is very corrosive to the artillery body and barrel, and the naval guns of our coast guard ships performing tasks in the South China Sea will be put on gun suits, so as to reduce the impact of the marine environment on artillery.
Judging from the pictures at the scene, the 3105 ship of the China Coast Guard has lost its gun clothing, and its main guns are directly exposed, and it has the ability to directly launch and strike at the opponent's ships, and can make a combat response in the shortest possible time, which is to implement direct force deterrence against the opponent.
In such a short distance, the PJ-26 76mm naval gun has a very strong ability to suppress and destroy firepower, which is convenient for our first boat to carry forward its firepower advantage, although our coast guard force uses more than 1,000 tons of ships to face more than 2,600 tons of Philippine coast guard ships, but the firepower advantage is in us, and more importantly, we have confidence in our own strength, and there should be more tonnage coast guard ships and naval combat ships on duty nearby.
Let's take a look at the Philippine Coast Guard ship again:
Philippine 9701 coast guard ship is modified on the basis of Japan's "Guotou" class coast guard ship, produced by Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, full load displacement of 2600 tons, almost twice the size of our 3105 coast guard ship, the ship is currently the largest tonnage patrol ship equipped by the Philippine Coast Guard, the Philippine Coast Guard has introduced a total of 2, all deployed in the South China Sea, the main task is to find opportunities to brush up on our islands and reefs in the South China Sea.
Although it is larger than the 3105 coast guard ship of our on-site law enforcement, the level of firepower is a little sorry for its own body, it is only equipped with small-caliber naval guns, and the firepower is not at all the opponent of our coast guard ship, and the Philippines also knows that it is useless to equip the coast guard ship with a cannon of a large caliber, and the two sides are not at the same level of strength at all.
China's coast guard and navy are the backbone of the war
Since the confrontation at the Diaoyu Islands, China has urgently strengthened the equipment of the China Coast Guard and other maritime law enforcement departments, first, by building more law enforcement vessels for the coast guard, and second, by strengthening the firepower of naval guns.
At present, the Chinese coast guard is equipped with more than 150 1,000-ton Shanghai guard ships, and 3,000-ton, 4,000-ton, and 5,000-ton coast guard ships have become the absolute main force of the Chinese coast guard, and even two coast guard ships of nearly 10,000 tons.
All coast guard ships of more than 1,000 tons are equipped with 76mm main guns, and smaller ships are equipped with 30mm naval guns and large-caliber naval machine guns.
As the so-called envoy of a large family called the girl to the small family, she became the young grandmother of the small family.
The Philippine Coast Guard is unable to form an advantage over the Chinese Coast Guard even if it dispatches the largest patrol vessels, and behind the Coast Guard 3105 is a large number of large-tonnage coast guard law enforcement vessels.
Some time ago, the PLA Navy's Type 052D missile destroyers appeared at the islands and reefs in the South China Sea, and the Type 052D missile destroyers are the main air defense ships of the PLA Navy and the mainstay of the destroyer detachment of the Navy in the Southern Theater.
The maximum displacement of the Type 052D missile destroyer is close to 7,000 tons, equipped with 64 vertical missile launch units, the whole ship relies on vertical missile launchers to implement fire output, which can launch YJ-18 anti-ship missiles to hit surface targets, and the Haihongqi 9B + Haihongqi-10 + 1130 close defense guns constitute a three-layer anti-aircraft fire network.
The People's Liberation Army (PLA) has always been the strong backing of the Chinese coast guard, and the Philippines did not dare to fire the first shot, thus ensuring that the control of the islands and reefs in the South China Sea is always in the hands of China.
We advise the Philippines that the islands and reefs in the South China Sea are a matter of China's territorial sovereignty and national dignity, and that it should not try to make concessions from China on the issue of islands and reefs in the South China Sea. Project Sword
