But what puzzles military experts is that the Federation Navy has such high shipbuilding technology, but it has never built a large capital ship. The largest ship in the Federation Navy is the Star Lord-class aircraft carrier. According to the Federation Navy
According to the information provided to various countries, the displacement of this kind of mothership is only more than 20,000 tons. Compared with the main battleships of various countries, it is just a little brother.
What makes experts from various countries even more puzzled is the composition ratio of the Federation Navy. There are 6 aircraft carriers, 10 heavy cruisers, and more than 40 large destroyers. The ratio is obviously out of balance, and the open shipbuilding of the Federation Navy
In terms of quantity, in the next few years, the Federal Navy will build more than 40 new destroyers, and the tonnage of such destroyers may reach more than 3,000 tons.
Although the South China Sea Federation is a country composed of multiple islands, it needs some small ships for patrols and coastal defense. However, such super-large destroyers are obviously wasted for offshore defense. They lack attack power when used for ocean operations. They are in the navies of various countries.
In the eyes of experts, these destroyers are useless. They have such a large displacement but are equipped with such a small-caliber main gun. They have no advantages except for a longer range.
In the end, based on the consistent shipbuilding style of the Federal Navy and the artillery configuration of the Federal Army, experts from various countries came to a conclusion that was very encouraging to all countries, that is, the South China Sea Federation had obvious flaws in manufacturing artillery, and they could not produce qualified cannons.
large-caliber artillery, and it could not be imported from countries with such technology, so the choice was made to match this large hull with more small-caliber cannons.
Submarines are extremely sharp and are the main offensive and defensive force of the Federation Navy. The aircraft carriers have excellent performance. Carrier-based aircraft are relatively advanced and are the auxiliary offensive means of the Federation Navy. They lack main warships. There are not enough large surface ships to carry out large-scale operations on the ocean.
Large-scale naval battles; the above summary is what naval experts from all over the world have prepared for the federal sea battle in the South China Sea.
The final assessment made by the military, to put it bluntly, in the eyes of the world's naval powers, the South China Sea Federation's navy is a deformed navy. They have superior defensive capabilities, but low offensive capabilities and ocean decisive battles. They are just a defensive offshore force.
The navy can only defend its own homeland and has no ability to attack enemy countries far away from its homeland.[
Military experts from all over the world know relatively little about the Federal Army. Every time the South China Sea Federation engages in foreign operations, the Federal Navy takes the lead. After basically wiping out the opponent's defense force, the Federal Army will follow the Navy to land.
Clean up the mess. Therefore, the evaluation of the Federal Army by various countries is that it has a small number of people, insufficient heavy weapons, acceptable training, lack of war experience, and no experienced commanders. In short, it is just a garrison force.
As for the Federal Air Force, although in fact it has only been missed once in the eyes of the world, that is, in the battle to attack Singapore, the Federal Air Force dispatched ground attack aircraft to assist the naval aviation operations, but various military experts have regarded the Anglo-American South China Sea as the center of the battle.
Those naval aviation torpedo attack aircraft were blamed on the Federal Air Force. In their view,
Later, it was impossible for HNA aircraft in this era to reach that number, nor could they carry such heavy torpedoes and fly that far. Therefore, the aircraft that attacked the British and American fleets at that time were most likely road-based long-range aircraft of the Federal Air Force, so
. Military experts from all over the world have given great praise to the strength of the Federal Air Force!
Although there are a few generals and experts who insist that those aircraft were taken off by the Federal Navy from aircraft carriers, especially the British and American naval admirals who participated in that naval battle, as a defeated general, most people think that their
The judgment was that they were abdicating their responsibility for bringing the fleet too close to the federal offshore waters. Therefore, the opinions of these people were drowned in the voices of mainstream experts.
The world's assessment of the military strength of the South China Sea Federation is a misestimation rather than an underestimation. This is mainly due to the differences in combat methods and concepts. At that time, large-scale military units with thick armor and main guns with calibers as thick as a human head stood tall.
Surface ships are the representatives of the actual strength of each country. They can't imagine anything else that can defeat such a water fortress with high defense and high attack power. Therefore, they are not arrogant, but are caused by the limitations of the times.
Britain, France and the United States are so determined this time to allow Japan's navy to pose a threat to the South China Sea Federation in East Asia. In addition to misestimating the strength of the South China Sea Federation's navy, there is also a major invention that makes Britain, France and the United States feel that they have found it.
Weapons to counter Federation submarines.
In 1922, after years of research, the British Navy invented a device that could detect objects in the water, the submarine detector.
The submarine detector is what we call active sonar. It is said to be an invention. In fact, this instrument had been used in the British Navy before World War I, but at that time it was only used to detect icebergs, and it was in passive mode. Later,
During World War I, because the Atlantic route was often harassed by German U-boats, the British Navy used this instrument to search for underwater submarines. The results were good. The British Navy began to develop this instrument from then on.
conducted special research and named it S, which means submarine detector.
During and after World War I, this primitive passive sonar was continuously improved by French and Canadian scientists, and finally turned into active sonar. Its principle is a bit like the common bats in our daily life. This kind of equipment will
Sound waves are emitted in the water, and then based on the echo generated when the object in the water is illuminated by this sound wave, the size, orientation, speed and other parameters of the object in the water are calculated.
Once this equipment was developed, it immediately attracted the attention of the British Navy and the U.S. Navy. After joint investment and continuous improvement by both parties, it finally became a secret weapon in the British and American naval equipment in 1923. This weapon mainly
The target is the submarine force of the South China Sea Federation. To this end, the United Kingdom and the United States have set up an "anti-submarine school" in Portland, USA, to train their own naval anti-submarine personnel.
With this kind of anti-submarine weapon that has been proven to be very effective through many tests, the British and American navies' last concerns about the federal navy have disappeared. In their view, as long as they are not fighting in the waters near the South China Sea Federation, they will lose the federal air force's aircraft.
After the support, the Federal Navy basically competed with the British and American navies. No matter in terms of armor thickness or gun power, the Federal Navy had no ability to resist. Even against the navies of France, Italy and even the three South American countries, the Federal Navy's
The odds of winning are not good either.
But having weapons to restrain submarines is not enough. If you want to support Japan and the South China Sea Federation to cause trouble, you must first lift the declaration of war between the two countries. Although Britain, France and the United States have reached a consensus, they can sacrifice Britain in the Middle East.
part of the interests, in exchange for agreeing to the establishment of a Jewish state
In exchange for the South China Sea Federation to lift the state of war against Japan, it cannot come from any of the three countries. It has to find a more neutral country on the surface to advocate this matter, and then the three countries will use fair and equitable means to advocate this matter.
Image, stand up and wave the flag together.
So which country should we find to stand up and cry out for the Japanese "government"? Britain, France and the United States unanimously set their sights on the northern part of the South China Sea Federation, that huge Chinese country, China.
At this time, China's domestic situation was relatively good. Although Sun Yat-sen passed away in Beijing at the beginning of the year, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were in the midst of their first cooperation. Both parties were preparing to establish the "government" of the Republic of China in Guangzhou. In Beijing, Feng Yuxiang launched the Beijing coup.
Defeated by Zhang Zuolin's Feng faction, he withdrew from Beijing, and then the Feng army occupied Beijing. Duan Qirui became the prime minister of the Beiyang "government".
Zhang Zuolin, the Fengcian warlord, comes from Northeast China. Behind him is the support of Japanese forces. This "request" made by Britain, France and the United States is also the expectation of the Japanese government. Although Duan Qirui's government has no regard for foreigners,
I am not happy to let myself come forward to speak for the Japanese, but if I offend these four countries, then life will not be easy in the future. I can only die as a Taoist friend rather than a poor Taoist, pinching my nose
Zi shouted the slogan of friendship between China and Japan, and proposed that the war between the South China Sea Federation and Japan has been going on for decades. For the sake of peace and stability in East Asia, the hostility between the two countries should be ended and a prosperous world should be built together.
East Asia and so on... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian. Your monthly vote is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please go and read.)
