Chapter 1610 The Second Island Chain That China Can't Break Through

"Did they say how many ships?" Liu Yijiu asked Liu Suxue after some thoughts.

Liu Suxue glanced at him, "If we accept the conditions of the Americans, we should be able to take down all four of their ships. However, these warships were originally intended to be sold to the Iranians by the United States. These warships have been in service for more than ten years. Behind."

They are engaged in American warships mainly to support the development of domestic naval equipment. It is conceivable that some technical experts in China will pretend to be illegal immigrants and enter Niputosan to survey and study these warships. Some of the electronic products will also be studied.

The backward warships do not have much effect on the domestic naval equipment manufacturing industry.

"Although this is more advanced than the domestic ones, our design requirements for the 055 ship with similar tonnage of this kind of warship are much more advanced. Using such technology will restrict domestic technical research..." Liu Suxue obviously does not want these backwards. Of the warship.

Four large guided missile destroyers with a capacity of about 10,000 tons are fully capable of making Nipudosan the most powerful navy in Southeast Asia.

The problem is that these warships cannot provide more.

"This is a large warship with ocean-going capabilities. Although the technology is relatively backward, it is not too backward. The technology is still worth learning for domestic warship manufacturing. However, now that the Americans have an idea to sell Out of their thoughts on the few warships that had been bought and finally blacked out, do you think that if Neptune did not buy, who would they choose to buy next?" Liu Yijiu looked at his thoughts and expressed The dissatisfied Liu Suxue asked.

The Americans do have the idea of ​​selling these warships.

Moreover, it was also sold.

"Who are they selling to?" Liu Suxue really didn't know who the United States sold to.

There are not many countries that can afford these warships, but most of them have their own warships. At the same time, there are many countries that the United States cannot sell to them, such as Argentina.

"Many countries in Europe have their own warship manufacturing capabilities. At the same time, the United States now has to divert its attention, so it is doing things at the door of China. Japan has an American fleet, and it is impossible for the Japanese Self-Defense Force to purchase such warships... ...You said, who else is left?"

"Taiwan?" Liu Suxue understood immediately.

Obviously there is only Taiwan.

"Therefore, these warships cannot fall into the hands of Taiwan, otherwise they will have the courage to do things. After all, we currently have only 051 old warships with a small tonnage and backward technology that carry the flag, and there is no way to perform ocean missions. ......" Liu Yijiu nodded.

"Then I will let them take down all four ships." Liu Suxue understood. Although there is only one possibility, this possibility is very high.

Taiwan is rich and ambitious.

The Americans are eager for China to be destroyed by Taiwan, although they themselves think this is impossible.

Not long ago, the French arms sales case to Taiwan was exposed, which brought the relationship between China and France to a freezing point, and the French are trying to solve it.The order from China is very important to them.

Taiwan has money and nowhere to buy arms.

Once the four Kidd-class destroyers of the United States are bought, Taiwan will lose the opportunity unless the Americans continue to build them.

They want to sell the sealed warships of the 1950s and 6s to Taiwan, unless the person in charge in Taiwan is completely stupid.

"What? Four?" Hanno felt a little weird in the face of Yang Wei's conditions.

Yang Wei nodded calmly, "Yes, we need all four ships. Not only do we need four warships without any reduction in weapons and equipment, standard-2 anti-aircraft missiles and Harpoon-2 anti-ship missiles are all indispensable! There can be no changes in everything..."

"No, we can only sell two to you!" Hanno shook his head.

In their original plan, these four U.S. Navy ships that have fallen behind in active service should be sold to Nipudosan and Taiwan, respectively, to best serve the interests of the United States.

This way you can put more pressure on China at the door of China.

Regarding their backward "Spruance" class guided missile destroyer, even the Americans feel that they have no confidence that they can make too much waves in the coastal waters of China.

The warships of mainland China can't do it, but no one knows how they have missiles.

Digging holes everywhere to hide good weapons and equipment is definitely not a good thing.At least it has added too much trouble to the US intelligence services.

"So, our cooperation is basically difficult to talk about. We are doing this for your American national interests to help you reduce the strength of potential enemies. The Chinese warships come over, and we can't fight it at all!" Yang Wei looked serious. Said.

The corners of Hanno's mouth twitched, which was nothing short of bragging.

Just rely on those small tonnage warships in China?

They don't have any amphibious landing ships at all, let alone long-range strategic airdrop troops.

I said this immediately. Even if the United States does not understand some of China's military strength, at least it understands most of it.

"Have you forgotten the two Iowa-class battleships that the United States sold to the Chinese? What about the Chinese anti-aircraft missiles? You know how their anti-ship missiles are. You know better. The deck area of ​​the Iowa-class battleships is sufficient. Great, just install these missiles..." Yang Wei talked about this as if he had become gritted teeth."Their c801 anti-ship missile sunk the British aircraft carrier. The Sheffield was also sunk by this missile. After so many years, who knows if they have developed a more advanced anti-ship missile?"

"What? Argentina's anti-ship missile originated from China?" Hanno did not expect it at all!

This information is unknown to them.

"Is this weird? It was not directly sold to them by China, but it was sold to Iran by China during the Iran-Iraq War, and Argentina obtained it from the Iranians..." Yang Wei seemed to accidentally say this information, "After all, From the very beginning, we participated in the war between Iran and Iraq."

They are mercenaries, and the backbone of the country’s economy is war. Knowing this information is naturally correct.

Hanno figured it out in his mind, and many things were now explained.

The relationship between China and Iran has always been very good, and now they are all good. This is not a secret thing for the international community.Iran relies on the Dragon Guard tank that destroyed the Iraqi defense line, and it also comes from China!

"So, we must have more advanced warships to compete with China!" After Yang Wei finished speaking, he said nothing.

China's nuclear submarines have been engaged for many years, and it is impossible for the Americans to not know.

China knows exactly how many nuclear submarines China has, but it is definitely not limited to the five nuclear submarines in China.

Nuclear submarine versus nuclear submarine, but because China has two huge battleships, there is no way to resist!

What's more, China continues to build small islands in the South China Sea.

"This requires feedback before the domestic decision can be made." Hanno was somewhat unable to decide.

Spruance-class destroyers cannot be equipped with standard air defense missiles, which greatly reduces the air defense capabilities of such warships.At the same time, in the face of China, which possesses anti-ship missiles capable of sinking Britain's most advanced destroyer "Sheffield" and the USS Invincible aircraft carrier, Neptune's warships are too backward to do so.

Of course, whether it is an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer or a Ticonderoga-class cruiser, there is no problem.

Neither of these two Aegis ships could be sold to Neptune.

"How advanced is the Chinese technology?" After the president heard the news, he felt incredible."If they have such advanced anti-ship technology, how can they remain silent when threatened?"

"They don't have ocean-going warships!" Mist sighed inwardly, and China was really underestimated."They encircled the sea and built land on the islands in the South China Sea to make up for the short range of their naval ships. With such advanced anti-ship missiles, who can guarantee that they do not have better anti-aircraft missiles?"

"Mist, you said that only by renting or selling two Kidd-class ships to Taiwan can it exert greater pressure on the Chinese government and make them have to invest more military expenditure." Richard Bruce Che As Secretary of Defense, Nepal is very dissatisfied with the decrease in the number of US warships. "We will mobilize another aircraft carrier fleet to the Japanese waters. In order to contain China in an all-round way, should we sell our Aegis ships to Taiwan?"

Aegis ship, that is the exclusive technology of the United States.

If other countries also produce Aegis ships, the combat effectiveness of the American aircraft carrier fleet will be greatly reduced.

"No!" Mister shook his head. "The South China Sea is very important to China, whether it involves their territorial sovereignty or the ambiguous navigation route! Therefore, in the South China Sea, To put pressure on China in an all-round way, Niputosang is not enough, there must be other countries. Give Niputosang four warships that are not backward, how many warships does China have to escort? We can give Taiwan a few of the earliest built Spurs Luens-class destroyers... They don’t know that China has c801 anti-ship missiles, nor can the Chinese Air Force. We can sell F-16s to Taiwan. With this kind of warship, Taiwan will like it very much... At the same time, these warships are sold. It’s possible to build several Aegis ships and increase the combat capability of our navy!"

"As a result, the second island chain formed outside China's waters will be more tightly defended. The pressure on the Chinese people will be greater..."

According to his plan, in this way, China will be strictly surrounded.

It will become more difficult for the Chinese to break through the second island chain.
