.First joint naval patrol by China, Russia in West Pacific is ‘of vital significance’: military experts.

Chinese, Russian warships circle around Japan; base of US provocations within reach.

The Chinese-Russian joint naval flotilla that transited the Tsugaru Strait days ago has since sailed along the east side of Japans main island to its south, almost making a circle around the island country, in a move Chinese experts said on Friday can bring balance to regional stability at a time when the US, Japan and other Western forces have been colluding to destabilize the Asia-Pacific region.

From the east of Japan, China and Russia could reach the US Navy base in Yokosuka, headquarters of the US Seventh Fleet, from which the US and its allies have been making many provocative moves in places like the Taiwan Straits and the South China Sea, observers said.

After the joint flotilla consisting of 10 warships from China and Russia transited the Tsugaru Strait on Monday, the vessels turned southeast, and were then seen heading south along the east of Japan on Wednesday and sailing to the west through islands to the south of Japans main island on Thursday, Japans Ministry of Defense Joint Staff said in a press release on Friday.

The warships involved included the Type 055 guided missile destroyer Nanchang, the Type 052D guided missile destroyer Kunming, the Type 054A guided missile frigates Binzhou and Liuzhou and the Type 903A comprehensive supply ship Dongpinghu from China, and the large anti-submarine ships Admiral Panteleev and Admiral Tributs, the instrumentation ship Marshal Krylov, and the corvettes of the project 20380 Hero of the Russian Federation Aldar Tsydenzhapov and Gromkiy from Russia.

Ka-28 and Ka-27 vessel-based anti-submarine warfare helicopters from Chinese and Russian warships conducted operations in the process, according to the press release.

If the vessels enter the East China Sea through the Miyako Strait or Osumi Strait, it would mean that they have encircled Japan, observers said.

This would not be the first time Chinese warships have done so, as during the China-Russia Joint Sea-2013 naval drill, Chinese warships entered the Sea of Japan for drills via the Tsushima Strait, and after the drills, some participating vessels sailed through the Soya Strait into the Pacific Ocean, before returning to the East China Sea from the Miyako Strait.

Encircling Japan, particularly sailing to the east side of Japan, is of significance because many key military installations are located on that side, including the US Navy base in Yokosuka, a Chinese military expert who requested for anonymity told the Global Times on Friday.

Many US military provocations on China in places like the Taiwan Straits and the South China Sea were launched from these bases, the expert said, noting that the joint patrol by Chinese and Russian vessels could be seen as a warning to the US and Japan, which have been rallying up to confront China and Russia, serve the goals of US hegemony and undermine regional peace and stability.

China and Russias joint maritime patrol is not just a voyage, but will also feature drills along the way to enhance the joint combat capability between the two navies, Song Zhongping, a Chinese military expert and TV commentator, told the Global Times.

Shi Hong, executive chief editor of the Chinese magazine Shipborne Weapons, told the Global Times that the voyage, involving some of Chinas most advanced and powerful warships, also displayed confidence as the Chinese Navy has developed rapidly over the past years.

Japan is known for its record of tracking and monitoring foreign warships and warplanes near it, so the flotilla is allowing Japan to see it to display confidence, while also practicing dealing with Japanese tracking and monitoring at the same time, Shi said.

Chinese warships will sail more frequently in far seas where international law allows, and cooperation between Chinese and Russian militaries will continue to deepen, experts said.

傳聞英國RINA.曾經建議購買中國3艘055D.進行汰舊換新,英國皇家海軍老舊的艦艇,並且邀請中國海軍055D.導向飛彈驅逐艦至英國北海與英國海軍舉行聯合軍事演習?

如此一來八字有一撇,希望成行成真,好吐一口怨氣,讓美國瞧得起中國海軍,如此強勢,就連昔日的老牌英國皇家海軍也要拜碼頭巴結中國一番.

.中國和俄羅斯10艘海軍艦艇，20211022日又經由鹿兒島縣大隅半島與種子島之間的大隅海峽進入東海，幾乎等於繞行日本一圈，這是日本防衛省首度確認中國與俄羅斯海軍艦隊艇同時通過大隅海峽，防衛省視為極特異行動而持續加強警戒監視。

截至筆者發稿為止,美國太平洋司令部尚未有任何評論,更加引起日本右翼團體的不滿,認為"美日共同防禦條約",基本上形同虛設,毫無作用,一旦日本遭受到中國與俄羅斯海軍艦隊的突擊,日本無法抵抗,美國艦隊又無法隨時協助等論調,即使駐紮橫虛賀港口的美國海軍艦隊,也在此次中國與俄羅斯海軍聯合演習時按兵不動..

北約及西方國家戰略觀察家表示,大隅海峽和津輕海峽都是國際海峽,並非日本領海,包括軍艦在內的外國船舶均可自由航行,日本報怨當年被美國壓迫並欺騙開放屬於日本領海附近的水域,做為國際海峽,以供美國等國家船艦通行,如今中國與俄羅斯海軍藉由軍事演習為題,公開穿越屬於所謂的日本領海,更加新的日本政府在國際外交更加困難,除了對付美國以外,又增加中國及俄羅斯的軍事威脅,美國及西方國家軍事觀察家認為,中國與俄羅斯海軍這種大舉突破日本及美國防禦圈咽喉地帶的行動,是值得注意的。

早先北約軍事觀察家認為,中國及俄羅斯海軍艦隊穿越今津輕海峽是航向太平洋的第一島鏈,挑戰美國太平洋的第七艦隊,如今她們南下環繞日本一圈耐人尋味?
