Chapter 1256 Delivery of Type 001 aircraft carrier
The Spring Festival has just passed.
In a military port in Qiong Province, colorful flags fluttered, red flags were waving, and the military band played music.
In the military port, a Type 001 aircraft carrier, with colorful flags and a big red flower, was like a new recruit about to join the army in this military music.
More than a thousand Pakistani naval officers and soldiers lined up neatly, wearing neat naval uniforms and their respective military ranks.
CCTV is reporting the whole process.
The Type 001 aircraft carrier is only a light aircraft carrier with a displacement of 20,000 tons, but it looks very majestic and spectacular at this moment. It is a real steel behemoth.
After being criticized repeatedly, CCTV learned from its mistakes and worked hard to improve its video and photography skills, so that at this moment, the majestic figure of the Type 001 aircraft carrier can be shown to the audience.
Liu Tao attended the delivery ceremony of the Type 001 aircraft carrier.
This Type 001 aircraft carrier was ordered by Pakistan that year, and now it is officially delivered.
The more than 1,000 Pakistani naval officers and soldiers have received more than two years of training and are already capable of driving this Type 001 aircraft carrier.
As for how much combat power this Type 001 aircraft carrier can exert, it depends on how the Pakistani Navy operates it.
No matter how good the equipment is, it is people who operate it in the final analysis.
At this time, the deck of the aircraft carrier was full of "Sea Eagle" carrier-based aircraft and "Udiao" helicopters.
All weapons and equipment are fully equipped, and similarly, fuel and supplies are all complete.
The ceremony is very grand.
The Type 001 aircraft carrier also symbolizes the friendship between the two countries.
As the most advanced aircraft carrier that can be purchased on the international arms market in the world today, the Type 001 aircraft carrier is quite popular and is also the first choice for developing countries.
Saudi Arabia is the most vivid advertisement. It has purchased three Type 001 aircraft carriers, making Saudi Arabia a naval power with three aircraft carrier battle groups. In the world's naval rankings, the Saudi Navy ranks fifth.
This is still the British Navy, with the brand bonus of the British Royal Navy in the past era of the British Empire. Otherwise, the Saudi Navy can be ranked fourth!
Now, the Pakistani Navy has also ushered in a milestone moment. Pakistan officially owns an aircraft carrier from today.
Pakistani dignitaries attended the delivery ceremony. At the delivery ceremony, Pakistan highly praised the relationship between the two sides, saying that the relationship between Pakistan and China is as solid as steel, and China is Pakistan's best partner. At the same time, it highly praised the Type 001 aircraft carrier.
When Liu Tao handed the certificate to Pakistan, the head of Pakistan signed and confirmed, which meant that the handover ceremony was officially completed.
After Pakistan officially appointed the captain of the aircraft carrier, Pakistani naval officers and soldiers began to board the aircraft carrier, and then drove the aircraft carrier to set sail and embarked on a journey back to Pakistan.
The delivery of the Type 001 aircraft carrier was six months ahead of schedule, which naturally had special considerations.
After all, the war in South Asia is in full swing now.
Although the Type 001 aircraft carrier is a light aircraft carrier, it has carrier-based aircraft, which can carry 15 "Sea Eagle" carrier-based aircraft and 9 "Udiao" helicopters, which will greatly enhance the Pakistani Navy's sea and air control and ground attack capabilities.
This also means that India must strengthen its coastal defense, otherwise the Pakistani Navy can launch an attack on the Indian coast at any time.
The Indian Navy has no ability to launch an attack on Pakistan's coastal cities.
India.
At this time, it was also paying attention to this delivery ceremony.
Natal had a gloomy face.
Before the war, the army had always told him that Pakistan was vulnerable. Now Pakistan's focus is on earthquake relief. It only takes one month for the Indian army to capture the Indus Plain.
And the military told Natal that the northern, eastern and southern defense lines are as stable as Mount Tai and can defend against the enemy's attack at the same time.
But when the war broke out, it was not at all like what the military said. Now the war situation has deteriorated.
It is because of the natural barrier of the desert, otherwise the Pakistani army might have already entered the essence of India.
In the other three directions, India has lost a lot of places, even Delhi is surrounded.
Delhi, this is the former capital of India, one of the largest cities in India, and the most important city in the north.
Natal is not from a big family, but in the last South Asian war in India, the government performed poorly. Natal participated in the general election and defeated his competitors with his excellent speeches, thus ascending to the throne.
Natal's foundation is very shallow. He originally thought that he would show his talents and carry out a series of reforms in India, but when he wanted to do it, he found that he was blocked everywhere.
So far, there are more than 100 ethnic groups in Indian society, and more than half of them have independent tendencies and want to learn from Sikkim people and establish an independent country.
The caste system of Brahman, Kshatriya, Vaishya and Shudra in India is deeply rooted. This is a blood system that has been passed down for two or three thousand years.
Brahman is a sacrificial class that has held religious power for generations and sometimes participated in politics. In the past, it belonged to spiritual rulers and was the first caste.
Kshatriyas are military nobles and secular rulers. Most of the kings in the past came from this class and are the second caste.
Vaishyas are ordinary free people who are mainly engaged in agriculture, commerce, and animal husbandry. They are the third caste.
Shudras are slaves or local indigenous residents who are mainly engaged in handicrafts, agriculture, fishing and hunting. They are the fourth caste.
Many people think that India is the world's most populous country, but in fact, there are only a little over 100 million people in India, and the other ten or so people are not real people.
In India, the Brahmins and Kshatriyas are an absolute minority in India, but they control the country's main wealth, while most of the people in the other two castes live in poverty.
Influenced by neighboring countries, India's internal contradictions are very sharp. The lower-class people such as Vaishya and Shudra are influenced by this trend of thought and are eager to change.
In addition, oil prices have risen sharply in recent years. India does not have abundant oil, and most of the oil has to rely on imports.
This has led to the fact that even if the statistics are constantly revised, GDP seems to be rising, but in fact, India has not grown again, but has negative growth.
India's largest foreign exchange earner comes from remittances from overseas Chinese and money earned from fraud in the United States and the United Kingdom.
The sharp internal contradictions and the weak foundation of its own made Natal want to divert the contradictions. If he can win the foreign war, his prestige will rise greatly, and the difficulty of reform will be reduced.
But who could have thought that the army's combat effectiveness was far inferior to what the military boasted about, which caused Natal's support rate to drop sharply, making Natal feel like he was sitting on a volcano.
If this continued, he would not be able to stay in this position for long and would have to step down in disgrace.
At this time, Natal regretted that he had believed the military's words so easily.
The military boasted, but he actually believed it. (End of this chapter)
