Hello, I'm Shinya Kanamaru from Epoch Times.
Today's topic is the question of the Chinese nuclear accident, and the sinking of a Taiwanese submarine.
Recently, the British media Daily Mail reported that
a Chinese 093 nuclear-powered submarine had an accident at sea,
killing 55 people.
It is said that the source of information is a British intelligence agency.
This report has attracted a lot of attention,
but there are also questions about the content of the report.
On the other hand, while tensions in the Taiwan Strait continue,
the Chinese-made first submarine, Haiquan, sank on September 28.
This new move is attracting attention
about the impact on the situation in the Taiwan Strait.
Today, I would like to take a look at this topic with you.
Here is today's composition.
1. The question of the accident report
2. The origin of the anti-nuclear means
3. The threat of a Taiwanese submarine
I will proceed with these three themes.
By the time you finish watching today's video,
you will be able to get information about the military situation in the U.S. and Taiwan,
so I would like you to watch the video until the end.
Before that, please move your body a little and relax before watching.
1. The answer to the question of the accident report
The editor-in-chief of the Chinese-language edition of the Time-Limited News,
Kaku Kun, appeared in a voice-over forum on Shinto TV
and introduced the contents of the Daily Mail.
According to the report, the China's 417th Type 093 nuclear-powered submarine
was said to have caused an accident during a public mission on August 21.
It is said that this accident was the result of the Chinese submarine
being caught in the Taiwan Strait.
After the accident, the submarine's oxygen supply system was damaged,
and 55 crew members died of suffocation.
The editor-in-chief, Mr. Setsu Eiho, was also among them.
The British Navy has refused to comment on this matter.
Kaku Kun said,
Daily Mail has a large number of articles,
but there is a doubt about the reliability of the information.
In particular, the contents of the reports of the members,
which focus on the gossip of the royal family and celebrities,
show a low level of reliability.
On the other hand, the former investigator, Mr. Yosei,
of the Chinese-Chinese Naval Command,
has stopped questioning the contents of the Daily Mail in the voice-over forum.
According to Mr. Yosei,
the submarine stop device installed in the harbor
prevents foreign submarines from entering,
and the fact that a Chinese-Chinese submarine collides is unthinkable.
The launch of the nuclear-powered submarine
requires the approval of the Naval Command,
and is reported and recorded
by the Chinese-Chinese Central Military Committee and the Allied Combat Department.
The launch plan was determined on the spot,
but the approach to the point where the stop device is placed
is strictly prohibited.
When departing, the navigation of the submarine
is monitored in real time on the large screen of the command center.
If the submarine approaches the stop device,
the command center will definitely change course
and will not allow passage.
Therefore, the information that the submarine collided
with the device itself is doubtful.
In the Daily Mail,
there is more to be concerned about.
After the collision,
the power equipment in the ship broke down,
the oxygen supply system stopped,
and the crew lost their lives due to poisoning and bleeding.
According to Mr. Yosei,
the average depth of the sea is 44 meters,
and the deepest part is 140 meters.
If an accident occurs,
the crew of the submarine can use a lifeboat
or escape from the torpedo launchers in any way,
and these escape methods are trained
by the crew of the submarine.
The air pressure in the ship at a depth of 44 meters
increases to meet the external water pressure,
but the air pressure does not exceed 0.3.
This air pressure is the same as that
in the cockpit of an airplane,
and ordinary people can withstand this air pressure.
Therefore, Mr. Yosei said
that the credibility of the Daily Mail is low,
and that all 55 crew members
lost their lives in 6 hours
and that no one escaped.
Mr. Yosei also said that
if the nuclear submarine is damaged,
it will be an extremely serious accident.
In 2003, when the 035-type
normal power submarine sank,
the Chinese Communist Party quickly
appointed the commander of the navy,
Mr. Seki Unshin, and the political commissioner,
Mr. You Kaikei.
The submarine was an old normal power submarine
that had already been decommissioned.
However, from any point of view,
this incident is more serious
than the incident of the normal power submarine
in 2003.
Nevertheless, why is the commander
of the North Korean fleet
still in that position?
When the navy commander was appointed
in the incident in 2003,
it is a fact that Mr. Seki Unshin
was promoted to deputy chief of staff.
Therefore, if 55 people died
in this nuclear submarine accident,
the commander of the North Korean fleet
should also be held accountable.
However, the North Korean fleet
is currently unable to take any action.
I pointed out how to interpret this situation.
Mr. Seki Unshin and Mr. Seki Unshin
seem to be contradicting military common sense.
Mr. You Kaikei claims that the report is inaccurate
and that the Chinese Communist Party
is deliberately leaking information.
Mr. You Kaikei believes that the Chinese Communist Party
is leaking information
to threaten the U.S. nuclear power submarine
and that harmful substances exist.
According to Mr. Seki Unshin,
the Chinese Communist Party
has three basic classes,
the normal power submarine,
the nuclear power submarine,
and the strategic nuclear power submarine.
The Chinese Communist Party
has the world's top submarine class.
However, its quality is not high.
According to Mr. Seki Unshin's report,
the U.S. surveillance facilities
are located in Singapore.
When the Chinese Communist Party
ships come out of the South China Sea,
the sound is very clear.
It's like the sound of drums and bells
when they leave the gate.
The U.S. is most concerned about
the nuclear power submarine.
According to Mr. Seki Unshin,
there are two bases for the nuclear power submarine
that the Chinese Communist Party has.
The first base of Tsingtao
has an attack-type nuclear power submarine
and its weight is about 8,000 tons.
The submarine of the Aliuwan base
on the South China Sea
weighs more than 10,000 tons.
Currently, there are 11 nuclear power submarines
of the attack type.
There are 6 nuclear power submarines
of the strategic nuclear power submarine type 094.
However, there is a possibility
that there will be a total of 7
because another one has sunk.
The improved version of the 094 type
is the JL-2 type,
and its range is about 8,000 km.
On the other hand, the 094A has a higher range
and has the ability to launch the JL-3.
The range of this missile
is about 12,000 km.
The JL-3 is a land-based launch type
and is a version of the Tompu-41 submarine launch.
According to Mr. Yosei,
the U.S. Air Force has deployed
an air strike force.
However, because of China's high-performance missiles
and offensive capabilities,
the U.S. air force is usually
rarely close to the Taiwan Strait
and is placed at a distance of more than 1,000 km
to ensure safety.
As a countermeasure against China's aggression,
the C-ULF type nuclear-powered submarine
is the latest and only has 3 seats.
It was planned to build more,
but with the collapse of the Soviet Union,
the need for it has decreased.
A large number of Los Angeles-class
nuclear-powered submarines were built,
and 62 were built,
but 26 are currently in use.
The C-ULF type nuclear-powered submarine
is also known as a nuclear-powered submarine,
and there are about 18 of them.
Four of them have been modified
into an attack-type nuclear-powered submarine.
The U.S. strategic missile nuclear-powered submarine
is also equipped with torpedoes,
so it can be used as a multi-function type
because it can also attack
The C-ULF type nuclear-powered submarine
is a Columbia-class strategic missile nuclear-powered submarine
and has a displacement of 28,000 tons.
The U.S. plans to replace the old Ohio-class,
and is planning to build 12 of them.
Mr. Sekizan pointed out that
the Chinese military has a clear weakness.
It is the lack of anti-submarine capability.
This fact is widely recognized
in the world.
Currently, the weight of the Taiwan-built
Haikou-5 submarine is over 3,000 tons,
and it has six torpedo launchers
and 18 torpedoes.
It is also possible to launch a Taiwan-made missile.
For the Chinese,
the existence of a Taiwan submarine
is highly likely to be a threat.
In Mr. Sekizan's view,
if Taiwan has a submarine,
the influence of the east side of Taiwan
will increase.
When the Chinese attack Taiwan,
they will block the sea,
and by prohibiting ships
and supplies from entering,
Taiwan's economy will collapse.
In the battle between blockade and anti-blockade,
the submarine will play an important role.
The Taiwan-built Haikou is shallow,
so the operation of the submarine is limited,
but the east side of the sea is deep,
and the role of the submarine is expected.
According to Mr. Sekizan,
if a war breaks out on the Taiwan-built Haikou,
the Chinese will definitely destroy
the Haikou.
The Taiwan side has a plan,
and when the war starts,
it will hide F-16s and other fighter jets
and maintain its power.
After that, when the war ends
and the counterattack stage comes,
it will launch the Haikou.
However, for this reason,
two elements are considered.
The first is the F-35B fighter jet,
which has a vertical landing ability
and a combination of stealth.
This fighter jet is equipped with missiles
and has the ability to fly towards the mainland China,
so it can attack the enemy's commander
without being detected by the enemy.
This is a big threat to the Chinese.
The second is the necessity for Taiwan
to have a submarine.
Submarines have a great threat
to enemy ships and landing troops.
If multiple submarines are deployed
at the Taiwan Strait,
the Chinese fleet will be restricted.
The military has proven that
Taiwan's submarine construction plan
is the first prototype of a submarine
by Taiwan's own production.
Taiwan has acquired a large number of equipment
and parts from many countries,
and has also gained the cooperation
of international experts.
It is said that the future submarine production
will be more efficient.
What should be noted is the major change
between the US-China relations
is completely different from before.
In the past, the US was opposed
to Taiwan's submarine construction.
The reason was that the US
saw it as an offensive weapon.
The US and Japan are
submarine construction powers.
However, considering the current international relations,
Taiwan's submarine construction
has become much easier than before.
This indicates that the military balance
of the Taiwan Strait is changing.
What do you think?
The international relations are changing
under the perception that
Taiwan's superiority is the superiority of Japan
and the superiority of the world.
Now, let's talk about the unsolved mystery.
Some people seem to know about it,
but some people don't.
Some people seem to be interested in it,
but they don't have a chance to know about it.
It's like a urban legend.
I think there are many people
who are interested in this genre of content.
However, Epoch TV's unsolved mystery
has a deep meaning
in its story.
There are many important things
to realize in life.
There is a lot of content
that meets the needs of those
who want to know about the real world.
Today, I will introduce some of them.
What should you do
if you think you are destined to die?
The love of fate.
There was a psychological experiment
that could reveal the greatest weakness of humans
in about an hour.
The distance between you and evil
is an experiment in which common sense is overturned.
Even the Nobel Prize winner
has pointed out that
there are already aliens on Earth.
There are many things
that many people want to see.
In the future,
the truth will be revealed one after another.
