Dramatic PLAN Recruitment Video Showing Almost All Equipment Currently Deployed

The People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN or Chinese Navy) just released its official 2015 recruitment video. The video, which is quite nicely edited, shows a large part of the vessels, planes and equipment currently deployed in China's PLAN inventory.

Worth noting in the video:
- Some of the contentious South East Asian Islands seems to be shown in the video such as Spratleys islets (at around 1:38).
- An international excercise with a Republic of Singapore Navy Formidable class Frigate is shown (at 1:45)
- The scene at 1:19 seems to be the recent evacuation of Chinese citizen from Yemen
- Zubr large landing craft are shown in action at 2:14
- While the scenes showing fighters and Liaoning aircraft carrier at 1:46 and 2:26 are real footage, the closing scene at 4:10 looks to be 3D animation and so does the scene at 1:48;

Seven PLAN Vessels Left for Sea of Japan for Large Joint Amphibious Drills with Russian Navy

Seven People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN or Chinese Navy) vessels on Saturday left east China's port city of Qingdao for the Sea of Japan where they will join Russian counterparts for a nine-day naval exercise. The drills, codenamed Joint Sea-2015 (II), will take place from Aug. 20 to 28 in the Peter the Great Gulf, waters off the Clerk Cape, and in and above the Sea of Japan. These maneuvers will for the first time involve a joint amphibious assault drill.

Sources close to the operation said the drills "are not targeted at any third party and are not relevant to regional status-quo."

The Chinese flotilla includes seven surface ships, namely:
Type 051C destroyer Shenyang (115)
Sovremennyy-class/Project 956EM destroyer Taizhou (138)
Type 054A frigate Linyi (547) and Hengyang (568)
Type 071 amphibious transport dock LPD Changbaishan
LCT-997 Yun Wushan
Type 903A replenishment ships Taihu (890).


The PLAN had two modified Sovremennyy destroyers delivered in December 1999 and November 2000. In 2002, the PLAN ordered two improved versions designated 956-EM. The first vessel was launched in late 2005, while the second was launched in 2006. Sovremennyy-class/Project 956EM destroyer Taizhou (138) is picture here. Japan MOD picture.

Six shipborne helicopters, five fixed-wing aircraft, 21 units of amphibious equipment and 200 marines will also join the exercise from the Chinese side.

The Russian navy, meanwhile, will send 16 surface ships, two submarines, nine units of amphibious equipment and 200 marines, among others, to participate in the drills.

The previous China-Russia naval drills, Joint Sea-2015 (I), were held in the Mediterranean Sea in May.

Caso a China atinga seu objetivo de estabelecer facilidades navais (bases militares) na costa atlântica africana o Brasil pode dar adeus ao Atlântico Sul como o seu ''Mare Nostrum'' algum dia. Estas facilidades vão se somar ao inadmissível cinturão de ilhas britânicas existentes entre a America do Sul e a Africa, que são a ponta da lança da OTAN. Esta será uma situação vergonhosa e vexatória, indigna para uma nação que pretende ser soberana e um ator de relevância no cenário mundial.

Sinto dizer meu caro amigo Nauta, mas do ponto de vista naval, mesmo no Atlântico Sul, somos, como sempre fomos, melhor dizendo, continuamos sendo não mais que coajuvantes. Nunca fizemos parte, de fato, do escrete principal neste jogo pesado dos grandes do mundo.

Melhor mesmo é nos atermos às nossas praias e manter o pessoal feliz e bem disposto para poder tomar a sua cerveja, vê mulher pelada e assistir o Faustão na tv.

E isto nos basta a nossa mentalidade marítima.

É meu amigo. Para um país que nasceu de frente para o mar, mas vive na prática de costas para ele, é difícil ficar feliz com essa acertiva.

Os Chaineises já estão com uma Marinha de aguas azuis de segunda classe comparada a Marinha Francesa,Italiana e Espanhola .

Mas para chegar ao nível da USNAVY e da gloriosa Marinha do Imperio Britanico ainda falta qualidade .

[hotm]

A marinha Francesa é tão boa como a Britânica.

[talharim]

A doutrina naval francesa permite apenas operar na retaguarda desse modo a traição e posterior fuga de seus navios fica mais rápida .
