Today is the 74th anniversary of the founding of the People's Navy. Today (April 23) is the 74th anniversary of the founding of the People's Navy. Pok a video to see what major tasks the People's Navy has carried out in the past year. In a certain mission, our aircraft carrier formation unexpectedly encountered foreign warships and aircraft in the open ocean. Song Guangzheng, Deputy Chief of Staff of a certain naval carrier aviation unit, said that foreign warships and aircraft often approach for reconnaissance, interference, and provocation, and every displacement is a battle. At that time, upon seeing the unfriendly gestures of the other pilot, I repeatedly warned him to drive away, but the other party did not change course until I continued to approach a distance of less than 100 meters, and he felt pressure before being forced to evacuate. In the past, at our doorstep, we had the confidence to provoke external forces, but now in the distant sea, we also have the ability and confidence. The calm response in emergency situations cannot be separated from the constant trial and error in daily life. From April 8th to 10th, the Eastern Theater Command of the People's Liberation Army of China successfully completed various tasks such as the patrol of the Taiwan Island combat readiness police and the "Joint Sword" exercise. In this exercise, the Shandong carrier formation of the Navy closely coordinated with the sea and air forces of the theater, organizing exercises on regional air control, sea assault, support and response, and completing tasks such as maritime deployment, regional air defense, and anti submarine and anti submarine defense. On the evening of August 2, 2022, Speaker of the United States House of Representatives Pelosi visited Taiwan, and China launched comprehensive countermeasures against this. On August 4th, the Eastern Theater Command of the Chinese People's Liberation Army conducted its first joint sea and air exercise to encircle Taiwan Island. More than 10 escort vessels of the Eastern Theater Command Navy have launched joint lockdowns in the surrounding waters of Taiwan Island, continuously organizing day and night simulation of land strikes, comprehensive attack and defense, and joint anti-submarine exercises. Multiple frigates, missile boats, and multiple mobile shore guided firepower units conduct fire tracking and targeting of important targets at sea, and conduct simulated assaults. Recently, the People's Navy has also participated in international military exercises such as "Jinlong 2023" and "Security Ties 2023", strengthening exchanges and interactions with relevant countries, and enhancing the ability to jointly respond to various security threats. In addition, the People's Navy has entered its 15th year of escort missions in the Gulf of Aden and Somali waters since 2008. On February 5, 2023, the 42nd and 43rd escort formations of the Chinese Navy held a task handover and separation ceremony in a certain sea area of the Gulf of Aden. The 43rd escort formation consisting of three warships and over 700 naval officers and soldiers began to carry out escort missions. (Outlook New Era Network)
